Which version of Zend Server for IBM i do I have?
UPDATE: As of 2020, we recommend using Seiden PHP on IBM i and LINUX for reliability, speed, and ease of maintenance.

Here is the easiest way to learn the version of Zend Server installed on an IBM i system.
From a 5250 command line, follow these four steps:
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 |
1. GO LICPGM 2. Take option 10 (Display installed licensed programs) 3. Scroll down to the licensed program 2ZSVRPI, 6ZSVRPI, or 7PHPZND (on my system, it's the last entry) 4. Read the product description, containing version numbers for Zend Server and PHP, in the form "Zend Server for IBM i [version] ( PHP [version])" |
On my IBM i, I see:
7PHPZND *INSTALLED Zend Server for IBM i 9.1.2 ( PHP 7.1 )
so Zend Server is at 9.1.2 and PHP is 7.1.
Thanks to Zend’s Sam Pinkhasov for this tip.
From a PASE or SSH shell, here’s a shortcut with sample output:
$ system “DSPSFWRSC” | grep -i zend
6ZSVRPI *BASE 5001 *CODE ZENDSVR6 V5R4M0 Zend Server for IBM i 8.5.5 ( PHP 5.6 )
Not for long, I hope, Nick! Good luck.
Just what I was looking for… Thanks. Sadlty for me, the answer was “its not even installed” on this machine DUH
