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.

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
