Hi
My issue is as followed
I need to extract the VCS version installed on the Unix machine.
I do not run as root on that machine – hence I cannot use the “had –version” command
So far I used the following script:
halog –info --- to extract where the log of the VCS resides
grep “VCS engine version” $logfile --- to get the version
I’m trying not to count on the default installation location (/opt/VRTSvcs) nor the default location of the log file (/var/VRTSvcs/log/engine_A.log)
It worked fine with VCS 3.5
In VCS 5.0 (and I believe from 4.1) – there is a new halogin command.
How do I check in a script if I need to run the halogin command?
Any haxxx command requires username/password and if the command hangs if they are not provided.
Especially the password which cannot be transferred to the CLI.
Any suggestion will be gladly accepted.
Best is to find another method to extract the VCS version with these limits:
• non-root user
• non-default installation location
• multi-platform support (HP-UX, AIX, SunOS)
Thanks,
Doron
