NOTE:B-tree file system (BTRFS) is not supported with eDirectory.
To determine the version of eDirectory, follow one of the steps mentioned below:
Run ndsstat.
The ndsstat utility displays information related to eDirectory servers, such as the eDirectory tree name, the fully distinguished server name, and the eDirectory version. In the following example, eDirectory 8.7.1 is the product version (marketing string), and 10510.65 is the binary version (internal build number).
osg-dt-srv17:/>ndsstat Tree Name: SNMP-HPUX-RASH Server Name: .CN=osg-dt-srv17.O=novell.T=SNMP-HPUX-RASH. Binary Version: 40002.79 Root Most Entry Depth: 0 Product Version: eDirectory for Linux x86_64 v9.1 [DS]
For information on running ndsstat, see NetIQ eDirectory Linux Commands and Usage
in the NetIQ eDirectory Administration Guide, or the ndsstat man page (ndsstat.1m).
Run ndsd --version.
For information on running ndsd, see NetIQ eDirectory Linux Commands and Usage
in the NetIQ eDirectory Administration Guide, or the ndsd man page (ndsd.1m).
Run iMonitor.
On the Agent Summary page, click Known Servers. Then under Servers Known to Database, click Known Servers. The Agent Revision column displays the internal build number for each server. For example, an Agent Revision number for NetIQ eDirectory 9.1 might be 40002.79.
For information on running iMonitor, see Accessing iMonitor
in the NetIQ eDirectory Administration Guide.
Run rpm -qi NDSserv.
Entering this command will display similar information to ndsd --version.
