Concerns and issues relating to all versions of WebSphere Application Server

How to determine the version of WebSphere Application Server programatically

Often times it becomes critical in operational scripting or even in your application code to determine the current runtime version of WAS. The Server mbean provides exactly this facility.
Below is a set of wsadmin script commands using AdminControl that you can use to query the Server mbean.


wsadmin>set server [$AdminControl completeObjectName cell=smitaNode02Cell,node=smitaNode02,name=server1,type=Server,*]
WebSphere:name=server1,process=server1,platform=proxy,node=smitaNode02,j2eeType=J2EEServer,version=8.0.0.0,type=Server,mbeanIdentifier=cells/smitaNode02Cell/nodes/smitaNode02/servers/server1/server.xml#Server_1183122130078,cell=smitaNode02Cell,spec=1.0,processType=UnManagedProcess


wsadmin>$AdminControl getAttribute $server state
STARTED


wsadmin>$AdminControl getAttribute $server platformName
ND


wsadmin>$AdminControl getAttribute $server platformVersion
8.0.0.0


wsadmin>$AdminControl getAttribute $server serverVersion

This exact same code can be written in java as well using the AdminClient interface
See http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/websphere/techjournal/0302_cundiff/cundiff.html

With these tools in hand you can interrogate all the characteristics of your current WAS server :
