Situation

How do I check which Hotfixes / Patches have been applied to the NetIQ 7.1 UNIX Agent?

Resolution

To check applied patches / hotfixes through the UNIX Agent Manager:

  1. Open the UNIX Agent Manager.
  2. Under Agent Manager, select the UNIX system you want to check the patch history on.
  3. Choose Hosts --> Patch History.
  4. Ensure the correct system is selected in the top box and press View to see Hotfixes / Patches applied.

To check applied patches / hotfixes manually on the UNIX/Linux System:

  1. Locate the NetIQ UNIX Agent install directory:
    1. cat /etc/vsaunix.cfg | grep PSHOME=
  2. Change to the main agent bin directory (<PSHOME>/netiq/bin)
  3. Execute ./wcPatch LIST
  4. If no results are returned, no Patches / Hotfixes have been applied to this UNIX Agent.
