Hi Priyesh,

I really don't know how to find the current version of IMS. I tried but I couldn't.

So I suggest you ask the tech support team who installed it which
version they installed. I think this is the simplest and only way you can do it.

Correct me if I am wrong.

1 way to find the version (and this is installation dependent) is to check out where the IMS system files are installed to . e.g. IMSEXE81.ACBLIB implies that hte current version is 8.1

another way is to logon to the IMS DC region. The version number will be displayed there. Again this is installation dependent.

Hi Priyesh,

I think this should work.

IMS should have a started task running. If you open the JESMSGLG, you should have a message indicating the current version of IMS.

Hope this helps.

Submit a job to list contents of DBRC Recon data sets. Example:
LIST.SUBSYS ALL
The resulting listing will indicate the version of IMS. Example:
IMS VERSION 8 RELEASE 1 DATA BASE RECOVERY CONTROL PAGE 0001
