To know the z/OS version and last IPL info

As a DBA, sometimes we need to check the oprating system version for compatability of some of the DB2 related software while installation and upgrade.

To find this there is spool/console command:

/D IPLINFO

The output is like below:

RESPONSE=MVS1

IEE254I 05.39.50 IPLINFO DISPLAY 651

SYSTEM IPLED AT 18.36.54 ON 10/25/2008

RELEASE z/OS 01.07.00 LICENSE = z/OS

USED LOAD00 IN SYS1.IPLPARM ON 8326

ARCHLVL = 2 MTLSHARE = N

IEASYM LIST = 00

IEASYS LIST = 00

IODF DEVICE 8326
