What's the flag to use with lslpp to get the date when the fix was applied

-h" will give you the history.

-h is not showing the dates.I'm looking for the dates the fileset was applied

 

[hirschaj]

# lslpp -h | grep -p bos.rte
  bos.rte
                 5.3.0.30   COMMIT       COMPLETE     01/17/06     15:14:02

1/17/06 sure looks like a date to me. I have never seen a version of AIX that this does not work on.

tech005,

What's the exact command you're executing that isn't showing history?

Also, check the following commands (assuming ksh):

which lslpp  # should be /usr/bin/lslpp

alias        # examine output to be sure theres not an alias 
             # masking the actual command

typeset -f   # do the same for functions

if the name of the lpp is longer than 40 chars or so, the details follow on the next line.

so grep wont show the install/apply date. perhaps that's your problem?

instead of grep use:

lslpp -h <whatever_the_lpp_name_is>


HTH,
