1 - Parameter

 product-name

    Names the product or list of products to include in the display.
    This is an optional parameter. If you omit it, operations

2 - Qualifiers

 2.1 - /BASE_SYSTEM

       /BASE_SYSTEM=(base-system-name[,...])

    Selects software products whose base system matches the one
    specified. The base system name identifies both a hardware
    platform and an operating system. The base system name AXPVMS
    denotes an OpenVMS Alpha product, VAXVMS denotes an OpenVMS VAX
    product, and VMS denotes a product applicable to either OpenVMS
    Alpha or VAX.

    Parentheses (())  are optional only when you specify a single
    base system name. They are required when you specify multiple
    base system names.

 2.2 - /BEFORE

       /BEFORE=time

    Selects entries that were created before the specified date and
    time. You can specify time as an absolute time, as a combination
    of absolute and delta times, or as one of the following keywords:

       TODAY (default)
       TOMORROW
       YESTERDAY

    Refer to the OpenVMS User's Manual for information about
    specifying time values.

 2.3 - /FULL

       /FULL
       /NOFULL (default)

    Displays information in 132-column format. The /NOFULL qualifier
    displays a subset of available information in 80-column format.

 2.4 - /OPERATION

       /OPERATION=(keyword[,...])

    Specifies one or more of the following operations as the value
    for keyword:

       INSTALL
       RECONFIGURE
       REGISTER_PRODUCT

    producer names.

 2.6 - /REMOTE

       /REMOTE
       /NOREMOTE (default)

    Selects the product database located on a privately mounted
    system disk. By default, this utility searches the currently
    booted system disk for the product database.

    When you use /REMOTE, the following logical names must be
    defined:

    o  PCSI$SYSDEVICE must specify the physical disk name of the
       target system disk. This disk must be mounted and allocated to
       the process executing the PRODUCT command.

    o  PCSI$SPECIFIC must point to a system root on PCSI$SYSDEVICE.
       It must be defined in the following form, where x is a valid
       system root:

       PCSI$SYSDEVICE:[SYSx.]

 2.7 - /SINCE

       /SINCE=time

    Selects entries that were created on or after the specified
    date and time. You can specify time as an absolute time, as
    a combination of absolute and delta times, or as one of the
    following keywords:
