Displays a list of software products installed on your system. Use the /FULL qualifier to display additional information such as kit type, maintenance activity, and software dependencies. Format PRODUCT SHOW PRODUCT product-name[,...] [/qualifiers]
1 – Parameter
product-name Names the product or list of products to include in the display. This is an optional parameter. If you omit it, the names of all installed products will be shown.
2 – Qualifiers
2.1 /BASE_SYSTEM
/BASE_SYSTEM=(base-system-name[,...]) Selects software products whose base system matches the one specified. The base system name identifies both a hardware platform and an operating system. Standard names are: Name Description AXPVMS Denotes an OpenVMS Alpha product. I64VMS Denotes an OpenVMS I64 product. VAXVMS Denotes an OpenVMS VAX product. VMS Indicates a product that can be installed on more than one OpenVMS platform. Parentheses (()) are optional only when you specify a single base system name. They are required when you specify multiple base system names.
2.2 /FULL
/FULL /NOFULL (default) Displays information in 132-column format. The /NOFULL qualifier displays a subset of available information in 80-column format.
2.3 /MAINTENANCE
/MAINTENANCE=(product-name[,...]) Displays the products to which the named maintenance products have been applied. A maintenance product is either a patch kit or a mandatory update kit. Parentheses (()) are optional only when you specify a single product name. They are required when you specify multiple product names. To list all maintenance products that have been applied to a particular product, use the following command: PRODUCT SHOW PRODUCT product-name /FULL
2.4 /PRODUCER
/PRODUCER=(producer-name[,...]) Selects software products that the specified manufacturer produces. Parentheses (()) are optional only when you specify a single producer name. They are required when you specify multiple producer names.
2.5 /REFERENCED_BY
/REFERENCED_BY=(product-name[,...]) Displays products that are referenced by the named product. Use this qualifier to show if the product, specified in the /REFERENCED_BY qualifier, has a software dependency on the product or products specified in the product-name parameter of the SHOW PRODUCT command. If you specify an asterisk (*) as the product name, all referenced products are listed for the product named in the /REFERENCED_BY qualifier. Parentheses (()) are optional only when you specify a single product name. They are required when you specify multiple product names. To list all products that require a specified product to be installed, use the command: PRODUCT SHOW PRODUCT product-name /FULL /REFERENCED_BY=* To list all products that are referenced by (that is, required by) a particular product, use the command: PRODUCT SHOW PRODUCT * /REFERENCED_BY=product-name To list all products that are referenced by (that is, required by) other products, use the command: PRODUCT SHOW PRODUCT * /REFERENCED_BY=*
2.6 /REMOTE
/REMOTE /NOREMOTE (default) Selects the product database located on a privately mounted system disk. By default, PCSI searches the currently booted system disk for the product database. When you use /REMOTE, the following logical names must be defined: o PCSI$SYSDEVICE must specify the physical disk name of the target system disk. This disk must be mounted and allocated to the process executing the PRODUCT command. o PCSI$SPECIFIC must point to a system root on PCSI$SYSDEVICE. It must be defined in the following form, where x is a valid system root: PCSI$SYSDEVICE:[SYSx.]
2.7 /SPAN_VERSIONS
/SPAN_VERSIONS=keyword([,...]) Selects software products whose versions match the specified version criteria. The keywords are: ABOVE=version Selects versions greater than the version specified BELOW=version Selects versions less than the version specified MINIMUM=version Selects versions greater than or equal to the version specified MAXIMUM=version Selects versions less than or equal to the version specified The ABOVE, BELOW, MINIMUM, and MAXIMUM keywords can be used alone or in combination. For example, /SPAN_VERSIONS= (MINIMUM=V2.1,BELOW=V3.0) selects versions greater than or equal to V2.1 and less than (but not including) V3.0. Using the MAXIMUM keyword instead of BELOW would select versions that include V3.0.
2.8 /VERSION
/VERSION=(version-number[,...]) Selects software products that have the specified version. Parentheses (()) are optional only when you specify one version number. They are required when you specify more than one version number.
3 – Example
$ PRODUCT SHOW PRODUCT * /REFERENCED_BY=DECNET_OSI The command in this example lists all products on which the DECnet-Plus product is dependent.
