Determining the Level of a mksysb


Environment

OS Level: AIX Version 4.2.0

Problem

The user has two mksysb backups, neither of which are labeled. One is an AIX level 4.1 backup; the other is an AIX level 4.2. How can the level of the mksysb backups be determined?

Solution

The level of a mksysb can be determined by extracting and examining the image.data file from the second image of the mksysb.
