Goal

The intend of this document is to provide you with the steps to identify the installed version of Raid Manager 6.

Solution

From the server running Raid Manager 6, list the information for the package SUNWosar.

# pkginfo -l SUNWosar

Example:

# pkginfo -l SUNWosar
PKGINST:  SUNWosar
NAME:  Open Storage Array (Root)
CATEGORY:  system
ARCH:  sparc
VERSION:  6.01,REV=01.11
BASEDIR:  /
VENDOR:  Sun Microsystems, Inc.
DESC:  system software for Open Storage Array
PSTAMP:  sonne980413152906
INSTDATE:  Jan 08 1999 18:07
VSTOCK:  06.01.01.11
HOTLINE:  Please contact your local service provider
STATUS:  completely installed
FILES:     34 installed pathnames
14 shared pathnames
15 directories
6 executables
1459 blocks used (approx)

Look for the line VSTOCK as shown above.
There are 4 fields, each separated by a dot. The version will be the 2nd digit of the first field. In the above example, it is 6.1.1. The last field is the build number. In the above example, it is 11 commonly known as update 1.
Thus, the above version of Raid Manager is 6.1.1 update 1.

Additionally, `pkginfo -l SUNWosar` will report other versions of Raid Manager as:

VERSION 6.01,REV=00.19 Raid Manager 6.1
VERSION 6.01,REV=01.04 Raid Manager 6.1.1
VERSION 6.01,REV=01.11 Raid Manager 6.1.1 u1
VERSION 6.01,REV=01.11 Raid Manager 6.1.1 u2 [*]
VERSION 6.22,REV=01.14 Raid Manager 6.22
VERSION 6.22,REV=01.54 Raid Manager 6.22.1

* Only 6.1.1 u2 will return output from `pkgparam SUNWosafw | grep 106513`.
