version of serviceguard

[anat heilper]

Hi,
how can I know what is the serviceguard version running on my machine?
I know that in serviceguard 11.17 and 11.18 the cmversion command will do the job,
but what about 11.16 ?
I know that I can issues swlist and search for serviceguard, but I have systems were there are a lot of extensions installed ( for example for sap, oracle, nfs, and so on), and issuing swlist | grep serviceguard will give me all of the applications that are related to it, so it won't do the trick.
Thanks,
ANat

Hello,


In fact issuing a swlist like this...

# swlist | grep -i service

Must display something like this

B8325BA A.05.00 Serviceguard Manager
T1905BA A.11.17.00 Serviceguard


Just the necessary information,

Regards,


Marco

I always recommend people use the following:
what /usr/lbin/cmcld


This not only gives you the version of SG, it will also tell you if a patch is installed and what patch number.
For example:

# what /usr/lbin/cmcld
/usr/lbin/cmcld:
Cluster Monitor Product $Revision: 82.2 $
A.11.18.00 Date: 09/19/07 Patch: PHSS_36997
Build date: Wed Sep 19 02:17:09 PDT 2007
Build id: ibld_sg1118patch_1123_product
Build platform: hpux
#

Shows you this is Serviceguard 11.18 with patch PHSS_36997

Hi,
Thanks for your answers,
but I still have problems since the format is not cosistent over versions:
what /usr/lbin/cmcld gives different results:
in 11.14:

in 11.18:
Cluster Monitor Product $Revision: 82.2 $
Cluster Monitor Product Only $Revision: 82.2 $

A.11.18.00 Date: 11/30/07 Patch: PHSS_37095
Build date: Fri Nov 30 12:33:49 PST 2007

Build platform: hpux


do you know for sure what is the format of the output line of "Build id:"?

Thanks a lot!

quite simply, this changes slightly from version to version, so there is no 100% consistent format
