I need to retrieve a list of package and versions from AIX. I looked over the inspectors documentation for AIX, but did not find anything regarding installed packages. Am I just blind? How would I accomplish this?
Thank you!

Found it on page 86 of http://support.bigfix.com/fixlet/documents/AIX%20Inspectors%2081_110706.pdf (Installed System Software). Guess I was a bit blind.

How am I able to retrieve version information for all packages? The following only retrieves the name.
(it as string) of products of object repository(imported comment written by SystemAdmin)
I am looking for something like “lslpp -Lc”
Sorry for all the double posting, I can’t find a way of editing posts, otherwise I would just expand.

I really wish there was an edit feature so I could stop double posting.
I now have
(
lpp_name of it , version of it as string
)
of filesets of products of object repository
but am finding that there are multiple packages by the same name. Is that expected? I am just looking for installed packages, not every available package which I am worried it’s giving me.

Have you looked at the documentation for a bit of help?
http://support.bigfix.com/inspectors/Filesystem%20Objects_AIX.html#fileset
There can be multiple packages with the same name I believe as you install different versions of the package. Not an expert here but I believe I have seen the same thing.

I am having trouble with the syntax for…
latest fileset of
I want “” to be the lpp_name of the fileset however the query,
(latest fileset (lpp_name of it) of it) of filesets of object repository
Produces the error “latest fileset not defined”
Should I start a new thread with this question?
Also, looks my name was swapped with sbhupe’s on several posts.
