How do I find pkg when pkg list command doesn't find pkg . .

Solaris 11.4.2  trying to  install new pkg but get errors:

pkgadd: ERROR The package <BESagent> is currently installed on system in global zone.  To install new instance of this package in the global zone only,

you must specify the -G option .  To install the new instance of this package in all zones you must firs remove the existing instance...

I  like to remove it then install new pkg but can't list pkg to remove it.  <BESClient>doesn't appear with pkg list -a .  How can I find it and what command can

I use to install new pkg ?  pkg install and pkgadd don't seem to work due to already installed pkg.

Howdy, Stranger!
