is there a way to get this info from sam or swlist?
Want to know if box was build with march 04 or sept 03 or ...

thanks

[Steven E. Protter]

Shalom,

swlist -i

Will bring up an interactive interface to provide the same information.

Sam has a list software function that lets you drill into the menus and get the same information.

Thanks SEP,
I was able to see that info through SAM, but unfortunately it does not identify which media was used to the create box :(

I have to build a test box and ignite is not an option (different architecture), so I'm gathering the required installation media.

Since I have several 11.0 installation media to chose from, I would like to select the same one that was used to build the box originally...

I guess it's and 11.0 thing? I was hoping somewhere on the system it would provide release/revision that could be linked to a specific installation media.

May have to just pic one, and go from there...thanks again,
manuel

Hi Manuel,

If you do an

swlist -l bundle | grep -i hpux

and then look at this thread it may help you out.
