    Included in PowerHA 7.1 Service Pack 3 and also with the upcoming PowerHA 6.1 and 5.5 Service Packs, a new command called 'halevel' is being introduced.

    The 'halevel' command, just like the AIX oslevel command, shows the PowerHA version/release/modification and optionally the Service Pack (SP) installed.

    Here a brief summary of its man page:


    halevel Command
    ***************

    Service Pack level.

    Description
    The halevel command reports the Version, Release and Modification of
    the PowerHA product installed on your system. The system must be a
    server node, the command will not function correctly on a PowerHA
    client node.
    The command can also optionally report the installed Service Pack
    level.
