RE: Retrieving OS version

[Bruce Guetzkow <bguetzkow@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Denis:

There is a data area in library QUSRSYS called QSS1MRI (at least there is in 
V3R7M0) that contains the version information in the first 6 positions.  A 
previous release (V2R3?) had it in a different data area (Q5738SS1, not sure if 
it was in the same library).  I'm not sure why IBM changed the name of the data 
area, but if IBM did it, it must have been for a good reason <bg>!

Subject:        Retreiving OS version

Is there an easy way to retreive, inside a CL, the version of the OS (v3r2m0, 
v4r1m0 ...)?
 I would like a solution that work from version v3r2m0 and up. I tried looking 
at the system values but there is none that i could see.
