Version
8.0.1 onwards IBM Infosphere DataStage maintains the version/patch
history in Version.xml file. Version.xml file contains all the
information about the product version, modules of product installed,
installed date etc.
Version.xml
file is existing in $ISHOME path. So
a)
cd $ISHOME
b)
If this will not work, try below steps to get the IS Home dir
c)
Execute below command to get ..
ls
-lrt Version.xml
sed
-n '/History/,/\/History/p' Version.xml
This
command will give you the version/patches history, like below…
<history>
<historicalevent
description="Information Server

installerid="information.server"
installtype="INSTALL" rollback="/is/is/_uninstall"
status="SUCCESS" userid="root" version="8.7.0.1">
<historicalevent

eventdate="2013-10-02T13:01:40.438"
installerid="patch_JR42098_iis_all_8700-1"
installtype="PATCH"
rollback="/is/is/Updates/patch_JR42098_iis_all_8700-1"
status="Success" userid="root" version="8.7.0.1">
</historicalevent></historicalevent></history>
Exception
Case :
DataStage
V7.5 , there is not a required place where patch history is kept.
However, there is a customary default location, namely
$DSHOME/../../patches that is referenced in the patch installation
notes for most 7.5 patches. So this is the first place to look for
the patch history of your 7.5.x system. You should be aware that this
is not guaranteed to have all of the patches that have been applied
to your system. You should confirm this with your DataStage
administrator.
DataStage
V8.0, If you will not find the Version.xml file, that will tell you
that no patches or fix packs have been applied. In all other cases,
the Version.xml file will exist and will have a history of patches
and fix packs applied, and will also indicate whether the patch was
successfully applied.
