Querying the service level
After an update to the initial installation, the version indicates the service level to which the product has been updated. Prior to applying any service the version is 6.0.0.0. As service is applied the last two digits will be updated, for example to 6.0.0.1 or 6.0.2.1. To view the version, do one of the following:
- Use the dspmqver command. At a command prompt, enter the following command: dspmqver. The resulting messages include the WebSphere MQ version number, which shows the service level.
- Locate the file Readme in the appropriate language subfolder of the WebSphere MQ program files folder (default c:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere MQ\PTF), then open it using a suitable text editor. The file contains the service level and details of the maintenance applied.
