15.5 Verifying Installed Software

   

---

The swverify command is used to verify software installed on a system or in a depot. When used to verify installed software, it checks file existence and integrity and file dependencies in a software package. It also executes any scripts supplied with the software to verify the software's integrity. The command can be used to verify software on multiple hosts . It also checks file attributes and reports missing files. When used with the -d option, it operates on a depot instead of on installed software. It returns an exit code equal to zero if all software verification is successful. The log of the command is recorded in /var/adm/sw/swverify.log , which can be checked for any error messages. For example, to verify Laser ROM on a local host, you can use this command.

 swverify LROM
