Verifying the HP-UX Install or Update
To verify that HP-UX 11i v2 was installed or updated successfully, use
the Software Distributor commands swlist and swverify.
Start Task 1. Run swlist to determine all software installed on your system:
/usr/sbin/swlist
You can control the detail level of the information displayed with the
-l option. To see all bundles installed, use this command:
/usr/sbin/swlist -l bundle
To see all products installed or all filesets installed, use these
commands:
/usr/sbin/swlist -l product
/usr/sbin/swlist -l fileset
For a cold-install, compare your list with the list of software products
in the TABLE_OF_CONTENTS files on the HP-UX 11i v2 Operating
System DVD and on the Applications DVD.
2. Run swverify to verify that each bundle is intact. Several examples
follow:
• To verify that an installed English 64-bit OS is intact, enter the
command:
/usr/sbin/swverify HPUXBaseOS
• To verify all HP software on your system, enter the command:
/usr/sbin/swverify \*
The Selection process determines all dependencies of all software.
After the list, the following message displays:
* Selection succeeded.
Then, the Analysis process verifies that each required file is loaded
(existence and revision), that all required dependencies are met, and
then it runs any available verification scripts for the product. After
the analysis, the following message displays:
* Analysis succeeded.
