    Joseph,

    Great !!! Thanks for the information. But how come you have such a vast
    knowledge of all such things which are not usual. Anyway thank you very
    much.

    So as you said the third party who is managing the servers would have
    created the whole software kit and deployed on the server.

    Cheers
    Praveen

    Praveen,

            The short answer is if the 3rd party product isn't designed to
    be installed by 'installp,' then the product won't be registered in the
    appropriate ODM files, so upon execution of 'lslpp,' you won't see the
    software in its output.

            For the system in which you've seen a managed services company's
    name as the fileset name, I would guess that they packaged their product
    pursuant to the instructions given in Chapter 20 entitled "Packing
    Software for Installation" in the "General Programming Concepts: Writing
    and Debugging Programs" book.

            I hope this helps.

                    --joseph

    Hi,

    If I have a third party software which is not specifically designed for
    AIX (What I mean by saying this is, the file format of the installation
    files is not in bff format.), and I want to install and wish to see this
    file set name in lslpp output, how do I achieve this.

    B'coz one of the system I have seen had a fileset that is customised for
    that server. The lslpp output on the server,had the managed services
    company's name as the fileset name.

    TIA
    Praveen
