View Software Version screen

Use the View screen to determine the software version this Avaya media server is running. You may want to check your software version before, during, or after you install new software. See Software installation for details.

Find out the software version this server is running:

1. On the web administration interface's main menu under Server Configuration and Upgrades, click  View Software Version.
2. The View Software Version screen appears. Details about the software are listed as follows:

• Operating system: The release and issue number of the Linux operating system that is running the server. For example:
• 2.2.17-14.1s11 is the release (by field: major release, minor release, development release - subrelease, Avaya release).
• i686 is the processor type
• system manufacturer (often unknown)

• Built: The month, day, time and year that the software release was produced.
• Contains: The issue and load number of the software that is running on the server, which is the software release identifier on the View Partition Status screen.
• Reports as: The fuller version of the software release name. For example, R011x.00.1.056.0 indicates:
• Product string, such as R011, identifies the software product (Release 11).
• BootImage, such as x, identifies the target ("x" is for Linux).
• Major release, such as 00. The major release number is incremented to mark a significant phase of R011 product evolution; when this happens, the minor release number is reset to 0.
• Minor release, such as 1, indicates changes within a major release. The major release and minor release numbers together are used to identify the issue of software (for example, issue 11.1).
• Load number, such a 056, is incremented for each new software build.
• Final number: additional release number, for internal use only.
• Saved: The month, day, and time that the software translations were last saved to the translations directory (this may change to month-day-year format depending on the elapsed time since the translations were saved). Two dates are shown because two copies of the translations are always saved.
• License installed: The month, day, and time that the license for this software release was installed. The time may be shown in month-day-year format depending how long the license has been installed.
