Thanks for quick response.
We didn’t used Bigfix for unix patching, but required when the server patched last time.

The first question is usually “How would you obtain this info without BigFix, if you were just looking at the computer directly”. Yum? DNF? Apt? Smitty?

I mean we haven’t patched unix servers using bigfix , only patching windows, we will use bigfix for unix patching.we required the last patch installed date for unix servers

we will use this command to check installed packages
rpm -qa --last
