Let's look at a basic example of how you might use the REPORT SYSMODS command. Assume you have two systems using the same global zone, and you want to check which SYSMODs are installed in a target zone on one system, but are not installed in a target zone on the other system. You can accomplish this by specifying the following commands:

   SET    BDY(GLOBAL).
   REPORT SYSMODS
          INZONE(ZOSTGT1)
          COMPARED(ZOSTGT2).

By issuing these commands, you direct SMP/E to compare the SYSMOD content of zone ZOSTGT1 to that of zone ZOSTGT2. Any SYSMODs that are in zone ZOSTGT1 and are not in zone ZOSTGT2 appear in the resulting report.
