Example: Querying the product identification using wsadmin

The following example queries the product version information.

• Identify the server and assign it to the server variable.

  set server [$AdminControl completeObjectName type=Server,name=server1,node=mynode,*]

  Example output:

  WebSphere:cell=mycell,name=server1,mbeanIdentifier=server.xml#Server_1,type=Server,node=mynode,process=server1,processType=ManagedProcess

• Query the server version. The product information is stored in the serverVersion attribute. The getAttribute command returns the attribute value of a single attribute, passing in the attribute name.

  $AdminControl getAttribute $server1 serverVersion
