pkgparam pkgid PATCHLIST
Shows all patches that have been applied to the package identified by pkgid, for example, SUNWadmap.
The following patchadd command examples to display information about patches that have been applied to your system.
To obtain information about all patches that have been applied to your system, type:
$ patchadd -p
To verify whether a particular patch has been applied to your system, use the grep. For example, to check for a patch with the ID 111879, type:
$ patchadd -p | grep 111879
