Is there a command that you can use to obtain the complete version number of the system. For example: 11.0.023 could be the complete version number and not 11.00 Thanks!

Hi:

No. 'uname -r' returns the release or version. Beyond that, you might be asked if you have a specific patch or a specific Support bundle, as for instance, "SP-0209" for the September 2002 bundles. In those cases, you would run 'swlist' to obtain this information.

Regards!

I do not beleive there is. Usually the other numbers tell you what patch level the O/S is on but I don't think HP gives that. The only way to see what patches are on is to do a swlist.

To check the HPUX version, use uname -r or uname -a and get the third field.
To get further information, login as root and use swlist.
