Examining software packages

In the Software Manager, you can examine two different sets of software:

You can list software by product (the default), component, or package.


NOTE: Patches are now listed in the same displays as other software.

To examine software on a machine across the network, from the Host menu, select Open Host. Then, type in the host name, or click on Select to choose from a list of hosts. (Sort the list by host name or IP address by toggling the Sort by buttons, or type one or more characters into the ``Filter'' field to search for a host name.) Then, examine the software as you would locally.
