Hi, My question is; if I have an AIX cd or dvd, how can I figure out the oslevel of that cd or dvd.
I've found out that there are some files like .Version in which I found the following:
DATE=100421170555
FORM=LK4T-1479-14
PART=
and the OSLEVEL file which states the oslevel but not the TL or the SP.
I haven't been able to find info about how to read the .Version file info.
Does anyone know?

Thanks in advance.
Pablo.

Are you sure its not printed on the cd/dvd itself? :)
Its been a year I had to order a cd from IBM, im looking at all the cds that came in the package; containing various TL levels.

For example TL4 SP3 cd says;

AIX 6
Version 6.1
TL 6100-04-03

I agree with you that it is printed on the cd, but these are iso images sitting on a Vios.
I don't know where the customer has the cd's.
I'm shure there has to be some coding in the files.

Regards.
Pablo.

Got it. My bad - I didn't realize you were talking about iso images in a vm library.

You have the Pub # from the .Version file, then go to the IBM Pub web site & pound in the Pub # ->

To be more useful:

1. the OP could have offered up, on the 1st post, this was an ISO image(s) on a VIO Server
2. the creator of the ISO image(s) could have included the TL & SP in the saved ISO image name. Something like, AIX61-TL6-SP5-VOL-1of2.iso, or whatever
3. I could have included a better working link to the IBM Pub web site. Here's a better link that doesn't include my session id -> http://www-05.ibm.com/e-business/linkweb/publications/servlet/pbi.wss <- and then walk your way thru to the Pub # web page

We're done.... time to move on
