SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

     showprods is a tool used to list products installed, previously
     installed,	or present on a	distribution.

     The prods arguments specifies which products are to be listed.  If	no
     products are specified, all products are listed.

     showprods lists only products listed in the database used by the inst or
     swmgr commands.

     The command line options are:

     -a	  List all products, not just products currently installed (default is
	  to list only installed products).

     -D	depth
	  List products	down to	the specified depth (1 - 3).  Default is 3,
	  list products	at all levels (product,	image, subsystem).  -D 1 means
	  to list only top-level products.  This option	overrides any
	  previously specified -D, -1, -2 or -3	options.

     -1	-2 -3
	  Show products	only at	the specified level (1 - 3).  This option
	  overrides any	previously specified -D, -1, -2	or -3 options.

     -d	  Show create date, instead of date installed.

     -E	  Invoke "inst_terse_mode".  Provides reduced output for scripting.
	  Equivalent to	setting	inst_terse_mode=on in the shell	environment
	  before invoking showprods.  See the description of the preference
	  "inst_terse_mode" with inst or swmgr for more	information.

     -f	distribution
	  Show products	on the distribution.

     -F	  Show the installation	source (distribution) of installed products.

     -l	  Long -- use long format (the default).

     -M	  Don't	use the	built-in pager.

     -n	  Show version number instead of date.

     -o	  Show only overlay products.  This option will	only show subsystems.

     -O	  Downgrade named products to 5.3 product descriptor format.  This
	  allows 5.3 versions of inst/swmgr to read the	affected product
	  descriptors.	Product	descriptor information added after version 5.3
	  is lost.  The	old product descriptor is saved	in the file
	  product.newer_format where product is	the name of the	original
	  product descriptor.

     -r	target
	  Set the effective root directory from	which the installation
	  database will	be read.  By default, this is /.

     -s	  Short	-- use short format.

     -u	  Dump the product specification files for the given products, and
	  fully	unpack the "exp" tag for each subsystem.

     -v	  Dump the product specification files for the given products.

     -V	preference:value
	  Set an inst/swmgr preference to a given value.
