For example in AIX, I can run the following:
uxprf180:/
root # emgr -l
ID STATE LABEL INSTALL TIME UPDATED BY ABSTRACT
=== ===== ========== ================= ========== ======================================
1 S IZ91983s05 10/25/11 18:28:59 6.1 TL6 SP5 fix for IZ91983.
Also:
uxprf180:/
root # lslpp -e
ID STATE LABEL INSTALL TIME UPDATED BY ABSTRACT
=== ===== ========== ================= ========== ======================================
1 S IZ91983s05 10/25/11 18:28:59 6.1 TL6 SP5 fix for IZ91983.
I want to check if the fix is not installed, so an action script can apply it, apply with some other steps, including a restart of the OS.
