Doug,

That's QShell ... it runs in ILE. Nothing to do with Unix at all. The programs (commands) that run in QShell are ILE programs. It is just a "shell" that lets you work with the IFS of OS/400, i5/OS or IBM i in a way that "looks like" a Unix style shell.

Now, if you had asked about PASE, e.g. CALL QP2TERM, then I can tell you that it is based on AIX, but always at least one release prior to the current version of IBM i ... so if you are on IBM i 7.1, it would be AIX 6.1, and so on.

HTH,

Mark S. Waterbury

Does anyone know how I can tell the Unix version that runs when the QSH command is entered?

Thank you,
