Hello Friends

I have over 750 hosts where various versions of UDB DB2 is installed.

Versions include : 6,7,8,9.

I want to know if after installing any of the above products,the version string,does it get recorded in any static file?

I want to get the version info from a static file.

I am aware of 'db2level' and 'db2ls' commands but i may not have privilages on all boxes to run those;that too 'db2ls' was given by IBM sometime after V8.1.

I am writing a fingerprint to capture version strings across all these hosts.

You can use

db2licm -l
DB2LEVEL FOR HOTFIXS

thanks ratheesh...

but everything under "adm" folder will be owned by either 'bin' or 'root'.I have never run 'db2licm' myself but i guess its an executable ...i do not have privilages to run it ....

I am trying to find out if version of that product gets recorded into a file on the filesystem.

Abhijeet

Any idea where can i find version string in the installation?

Guys ,i need help/advice on this.

Search for a file "global.reg". You can use "strings global.reg" to see its content or try command "db2greg -dump".
