How to Verify Your HP-UX Installation

To list all products on your system, enter:

/usr/sbin/swlist -a state -l fileset

For example, running swlist on a newly installed partition on an HP Superdome system could list these product bundles:

# Accounting
Accounting.ACCOUNTNG                  configured
Accounting.ACCOUNTNG2                 configured
Accounting.ACCT-ENG-A-MAN             configured
Accounting.ACCT-JPN-E-MAN             configured
Accounting.ACCT-JPN-S-MAN             configured
# ApacheStrong
ApacheStrong.APACHE-STRONG            configured
ApacheStrong.TOMCAT                   configured
# Asian-Core
Asian-Core.ASX-JPN-E-MAN              configured
Asian-Core.ASX-JPN-MAN                configured
Asian-Core.ASX-JPN-S-MAN              configured
Asian-Core.ASX-MAN                    configured
# Asian-PRINTER
Asian-PRINTER.PRNTR-COM               configured
Asian-PRINTER.PRNTR-JPN-RUN           configured

For a cold-install, compare your listing with the list of software products provided with 11i, as listed in the tables in the Read Before Installing or Updating to HP-UX 11i v1 booklet.

For an update, compare your listing with the swlist output obtained before the update. Software products whose versions have not changed have not been updated. Use the swverify command to determine whether those products are compatible with HP-UX 11i v1.

Run swverify to verify that each bundle is intact. For example, to verify that HP-UX 11i v1 OS is intact, enter:

/usr/sbin/swverify HPUXBase64

Or, to verify all software on your system, enter:

/usr/sbin/swverify \*

The Selection process locates all required filesets for the product. After the list you should see:

* Selection succeeded.

Then the Analysis process verifies that each required file is loaded (existence and version), all required dependencies are met, and runs any available verification scripts for the product. This will take some time. After the analysis you should see:

* Analysis succeeded.

If the analysis fails, either view /var/adm/sw/swagent.log to review the analysis log or run the swjob... command listed at the end of the swverify report sent to stdout.
