Node installation properties

Use this page to view read-only installation properties for this node. These properties provide information about the capabilities of the node that are collected during product installation time, such as the operating system name, architecture and version, or WebSphere Application Server product levels that are installed on the node.

To view this administrative console page, click System Administration > Nodes > node name > Node installation properties .

Information about a node, such as operating system platform and product features, is maintained in the configuration repository in the form of properties. As product features are installed on a node, new property settings are added. WebSphere Application Server system management uses the managed object metadata properties as follows:

To display the node version in the administrative console
To ensure that new configuration types or attributes are not created or set on older release nodes
To ensure that new resource types are not created on old release notes
To ensure that new applications are not installed on old release nodes because the old run time cannot support the new applications

For detailed information about the following properties, see the Application Server application programming interface (API).

com.ibm.websphere.baseProductVersion: The version of WebSphere Application Server that is installed.
com.ibm.websphere.nodeOperatingSystem: The operating system platform on which the node runs.
com.ibm.websphere.nodeSysplexName: The sysplex name on a z/OS operating system.
