Verifying the HP-UX Installation

To verify that HP-UX 11i v1.6 was installed successfully, use the Software Distributor commands swlist and swverify.

Run swlist to list all products, bundles, and filesets on the system:
/usr/sbin/swlist -l bundle
options: -l product and -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 v1.6 Operating System DVD and on the Applications DVD.
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 HPUXBase64
- To verify all HP software on your system, enter the command:
  /usr/sbin/swverify \*
The Selection process locates all required filesets for the product. After the list, the following message displays:
* Selection succeeded.
Then, the Analysis process verifies that each required file is loaded (existence and revision), all required dependencies are met, and runs any available verification scripts for the product. After the analysis, the following message displays:
* 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.
* Verification succeeded.




	TIP: For help with these commands, see the swlist(1M) and swverify(1M) manpages, and the Software Distributor Administration Guide, which is available on the Instant Information CD or the web: http://docs.hp.com/hpux/os/11iV1.6
