list-updates.pl

Lists all available updates on one or more systems

This command outputs a table of all known package updates that are available on the selected systems. You can select systems to query with the --host flag followed by a hostname, --owner flag followed by a system owner name, --group and a group name, or --all-hosts to find updates from any of them.

To switch the output to a more parsable format, use the --multiline flag. To get just a list of package names, use the --name-only flag.
