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 /FULL
/FULL
/NOFULL (default)
Displays information in 132-column format. The /NOFULL qualifier
displays a subset of available information in 80-column format.
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
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.
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=*
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.]
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.
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.
