# /usr/sbin/dupatch -track -type kit

But be aware that :
>> When a patch kit is listed, it does not necessarily mean
>> all patches on that kit are installed on your system.

and that 5.0A is no longer supported.

Hi Agnes,

Thanks!But the dupatch isn't supported on
5.0?,could you tell me a method.

I know this way:
#more /var/adm/patch/log/event.log | grep
-E 'KITNAME'

have any way else?

The version Tru64 Unix V5.0A isn't supported, I don't understand when you say "dupatch isn't supported on 5.0"...

Your system is running in 5.0 or 5.0A ??

#more /var/adm/patch/log/event.log | grep -E 'KITNAME'
is good so what is the problem/question ?

This is my output:
#sizer -v
Compaq Tru64 UNIX V5.1B (Rev. 2650); Mon Jun 2 10:52:54 CST 2003

#/usr/sbin/dupatch - track - type kit

ksh: /usr/sbin/dupatch: not found

So I thinked the dupatch not support on
5.0a or higher

thanks again!

V5.1B is the latest Tru64 version , so it's really good!

If you have :
> ksh: /usr/sbin/dupatch: not found
it's probably that there is none patches installed on your system.

To be definitively sure :
# cd /usr/.smdb.
# ls -l OSFPAT* --> for Tru64 Unix patches
# ls -l TCRPAT* --> for TruCluster patches

If "not found", no patch kit installed on your system...

Agnes

PS : In V5.1B, the latest patch kit is PK3/BL24

check /var/adm/patch/log for entries, if not found - no patch installed.

If no patches, no directory /var/adm/patch

If /usr/sbin/dupatch doesn't exist, you haven't installed any patch kits onto your system.
