Verifies files of an installable
software product.

The lppchk command
verifies that files for an installable software product (fileset) match the
Software Vital Product Data (SWVPD) database information for file sizes,
checksum values, or symbolic links. A fileset is a separately
installable option of a software package.
| -c
| Performs a checksum operation on the FileList items and
verifies that the checksum and the file size are consistent with the SWVPD
database.
|
| -f
| Checks that the FileList items are present and the file size
matches the SWVPD database.
|
| -l
| Verifies symbolic links for files as specified in the SWVPD
database.
|
| -m
[1|2|3]
| Displays three levels of information. The levels are as
follows:
- 1
- Error messages only (default).
- 2
- Error messages and warnings.
- 3
- Error messages, warnings and informational messages.
|
| -O
{[r][s][u]}
| Verifies the specified parts of the program. This flag is not
needed with standalone systems because without this option all parts are
verified by default. The flags specify the following parts:
- r
- Indicates the / (root) part is to be verified.
- s
- Indicates the /usr/share part is to be verified.
- u
- Indicates the /usr part is to be verified.
|
| -u
| Updates the SWVPD with new checksum or size information from the system
when the system information does not match the SWVPD database. This
flag sets symbolic links that are found to be missing. This flag is
valid with only the -c or -l flag.
|
| -v
| Verifies that the / (root), /usr and
/usr/share parts of the system are valid with each other. In
other words, this flag verifies that all software products installed on the
/ (root) file system are also installed on the /usr file
system and, conversely, all the software products installed in the
/usr file system are also installed on the / (root) file
system. You cannot specify FileList items with this
flag. This flag also verifies requisites.
Note: Only one of the -c, -f,
-l, and -v flags can be specified with each use of the
lppchk command.
|
| FileList
| Specifies the file or files to check. This parameter is a list of
file names separated by spaces. The file names can be a single name or
a pair of names separated by a colon. The first form specifies a simple
file and the second form specifies a member of an archive file, where the
first name specifies the member and the second name specifies the archive file
that contains the member. The full path name of the file or files must
be specified. To specify multiple files you can use the
pattern-matching characters * (asterisk) and ? (question
mark), but they should be enclosed in a pair of 's (single
quotes). Single quotes are recommended to prevent the korn shell
wildcard expansion.
If this parameter is omitted, all files
of a software product are checked. If this parameter is specified, it
must be preceded by a software product name.
|
| ProductName
| Specifies the name of the software product whose files are to be
checked. If this parameter is omitted, all software products in the
SWVPD are checked. To specify multiple software products you can use
the pattern-matching characters * (asterisk) and ?
(question mark), but they must be enclosed in a pair of 's
(single quotes) to prevent the shell from expanding them.

The lppchk command
returns zero if no errors were found. Any other return value indicates
an error was found.
- To verify all files that
comprise the X11.fnt package, enter:
lppchk -c X11.fnt
- To verify the symbolic links of
all software products whose names begin with X11, enter:
lppchk -l 'X11*'
- To verify that all
filesets have all required requisites and are completely installed,
enter:
lppchk -v
| /etc/objrepos/lpp
| Specifies installation information of all software products on the
root.
|
| /usr/lib/objrepos/lpp
| Specifies installation information of all software products on the
/usr file system.
|
| /usr/share/lib/objrepos/lpp
| Specifies installation information of all software products on the
/usr/share file system.
|
| /etc/objrepos/product
| Specifies installation and update information of all software products on
the root.
|
| /usr/lib/objrepos/product
| Specifies installation and update information of all software products on
the /usr file system.
|
| /usr/share/lib/objrepos/product
| Specifies installation and update information of all the software
products on the /usr/share file system.
|
| /etc/objrepos/inventory
| Specifies names and locations of files in a software product on the
root.
|
| /usr/lib/objrepos/inventory
| Specifies names and locations of files in a software product on the
/usr file system.
|
| /usr/share/lib/objrepos/inventory
| Specifies names and locations of files in a software product on the
/usr/share file system.
