To maintain software for sytem WPAR with Global AIX

syncwpar [ [-a] [-i] | [-F] [-r] ] [-p] [-v] [-X]
{ -A | -f wparNamesFile | wparName }

Flags:
-a = Perform additional installation only.
-i = Only update installp filesets.
-F = Force copy RPM files.
-r = Only update RPM files.
-p = Preview operation. Do not actually perform the synchronization.
-v = Verbose mode.
-X = Expand file system space if possible.
-A = Apply operation to all corrals.
-f = Specifies a file containing a list of workload partitions.

Note : - If system WPAR has /usr private file system for WPAR. Synchronisation will Fail ...
