Checking installed software

ISAM provides commands and utilities to help determine the correct software, and software level, is installed on any operating system.

Use the pdversion utility to list Security Verify Access components that are installed on the system along with their version number. This utility does not list prerequisite software, such as IBM Global Security Kit (GSKit). We can also determine the presence or absence of prerequisite software with operating system utilities. The utilities, by operating system, are as follows:

AIX

The lslpp -l command

Linux

The rpm -qa command

Solaris

The pkginfo -l command

Windows

The Add/Remove Programs facility from the Control Panel

Use these tools with the product requirements that are listed in the Clearinghouse reports we can obtain from the product requirement link on the Welcome page in the Knowledge Center. Ensure that all the required software is installed on each system in the Security Verify Access deployment.
