How to list all software installed with IBM Installation Manager

Question & Answer


Question

How do you get a list of all installed software through IBM Installation Manager?

Cause

IBM Installation Manager does not record installed software in the operating system package tracking. That means Add/Remove programs under Windows. The IBM Installation Manager uses its own database to know what and where are the installed software.

Answer

You can query the IBM Installation Manager to get a list of installed software. Use the console mode of IBM Installation Manager. Consider the following command.


>imcl listInstalledPackages -features -long


EXAMPLES

  • Windows


    imcl.exe listInstalledPackages -features -long



  • Linux, UNIX, IBM® i and z/OS®


    ./imcl listInstalledPackages -features  -long
