swlist -l product | grep PHKL_23567

You can check swlog for the date or:

swlist -l product -l fileset | grep PHKL_23567

Check the file date.

You can check if it was superseded as follows:

cleanup -c 1

You can not commmit the patches.

Try cleanup -p 1

the man page contains other options.

Complete information about the installation (like
installation date and time, depot etc) is stored in the
file "pfiles". For ex, to see these details for patch
PHCO_31643, look into the file:

/var/adm/sw/products/PHCO_31643/pfiles
