RE: How to retrieve current OS400 targt release

Ganesh:

(I see this thought has been posted while I've waded through all the recent 
posts... ah, well...)

RTVDTAARA has worked for me for at least 15 years.

A "trick" I learned years ago was that the QSS1MRI data area in QUSRSYS held 
the VvRrMm value in positions 1-6. It's been that way on every release since 
probably version 1 of OS/400.

What can be most useful is when this is accessed remotely through a DDM data 
area... lets you check what the remote system is via RTVDTAARA in a CL program. 
Very handy when needed.
