Verifying System Installation

As part of the process of troubleshooting system problems, you can verify system installation to confirm that the system's primary software packages have been properly installed. The system information is displayed on the Verify System Install-System Verification page.

The system takes a few minutes to perform a series of background checks on the system software. The contents of each installed executable or help file, but not data files, are checked to verify they were unchanged during the lifetime of the system. Each of the primary software packages installed on the system is listed. Exceptions are noted in the output of this command.
