Determining the Utilities Version
 
 
 

Since the command line utilities are stored in usr/discreet/io/<version number>/bin, it is useful to know what version has been installed.

To determine the utilities version:

  1. Open a command shell.
  2. Type:

    versions -bn | grep -i dltools

    This produces output in the following format:

    I DLtools<version_nbr> <package_nbr> discreet tools, version <version_nbr>

    In this output, the last four digits of the package number represent the build. This number can be useful when reporting to technicians during troubleshooting.

Example

The following represents a typical output of the versions and grep commands when used in the previous procedure:

I DLtools83 1658372105 discreet tools, version 8.3

In this case, the <package_nbr> is 1658372105, the build number is 2105, and the <version_nbr> is 8.3.
