Command to get MCSG revision

[Darius Shafie]

Hi,

Im a newbe at both HPUX and MC/SG and have been assigned a pair of non production test systems to configure MC/SG. The systems already have MC/SG installed and I like to find out what revision and patch levels. Are there any commands that will return this information?

Thanks.

swlist | grep -i "service"

Thanks Clay,

I ran the command and got the following:

B3935DA A.11.14 MC/Service Guard
PHSS_30769 1.0 MC/ServiceGuard and SG-OPS Edition A.11.14

Im sure this pretty back rev, should I dowload and bring it to current revs.?

Im having a number of issues with creating a simple configuration.

Thanks, again.

I would at least come up to 11.16. You should also check for the required patches for whatever version you choose. SG always has a list of required patches and if those are missing then you will have problems. I ran 11.14 for a long time and found it to be stable so I rather doubt that your problems have much to do with the version but more to do with whoever is sitting in the pilot's seat.

I got MC/SG up and running and then went to the class but that's not generally the preferred approach.

Thanks Clay,

I learning this on my own and have the manuals and the net to help along. These systems are purely for testing so its ok to try almost anything on them. I have been able to solve most issues but these MC/SG ones are just blocking my progress.

thanks again.

Hurry for Clay.
