List of Installed patches for AIX from given set of patches
I need to find out list of installed patches from given list of patches.
I have tried using instfix -f <File containing list of patches> -i -c
But I was not able to understand the output of this command. It was like below.
bos.perf.tools: :0.0.0.0:?:
bos.rte.libc: :0.0.0.0:?:
invscout.rte: :0.0.0.0:?:
devices.pci.14106902.rte: :0.0.0.0:?:
X11.apps.xdm: :0.0.0.0:?:
bos.mp64: :0.0.0.0:?:
devices.chrp.base.diag: :0.0.0.0:?:
devices.fcp.disk.rte: :0.0.0.0:?:
X11.base.rte: :0.0.0.0:?:
bos.adt.prof: :0.0.0.0:?:
bos.rte.control: :0.0.0.0:?:
devices.scsi.tape.diag: :0.0.0.0:?:
bos.mls.cfg: :0.0.0.0:?:
bos.rte.serv_aid: :0.0.0.0:?:
It did returned result with respect to given file but how do I know which one is installed and which one is not from this output? Or is there any other way to find this?
Thanks.
