Hi, We have requirement to setup a new DataStage server similar to the one that we already have. Is there a way to findout the list of components / plug-ins / patches installed in the current server? This installation was done long back and there is no documents on plug-ins that are installed and what patches are applied so far. Thanks in advance.

If you click Help on DataStage Designer and click "About DataStage Designer", it will popup about Version, Build Number and Other info. At the bottom of the popup there is a clickable , "Show Patch Install History". You may click that get the history [I am talking about DataStage 8.1]

Thanks

Hi, The option "Show Patch Install History" is not available in 7.5.2. Is there any other way to get it? Thanks.

There should be a file called patchlist on the server - from memory it's in the DSEngine directory.
