Listing all Software and Tools installed

Hi,

In Unix, how do we know, which software and tools are installed? Is there any command or info file available for the same?

Regards,

Yes there are. But these are OS specific, so you have to tell us which system you need the commands for.

Ok.

It's HP-Unix, Release: B.11.00, Version: A

Please let me know for any further information

"swlist" is the command to list installed software on hp-ux.
List installed patches with "swlist -l patch" ; List modules with "kmadmin -s"
On BSD is "pkg_info" ; on RPM based distro - "rpm -qa"
HTH.

What would be the same command for Sun Os machines.

"pkginfo" is a pretty nice command for solaris. pkginfo -l "package" will give you additional details.

That was very helpful.

Thanks a lot Blowtorch and Sysgate

AIX comes with "lslpp -l"
