Viewing Package Attributes and Version Number
For each package, Designer tracks and displays settings, version number, and a history of installed patches. A patch is a partial upgrade, change, or fix to the contents of a package.
You might want to check the settings of a package for the following reasons:
*To determine which version of the package is installed.
*To avoid overwriting the installed package with a lower version of the same package.
*To view the changes that are included in each version of the package.
*To inform Software AG Global Support which versions of predefined packages are installed on your Integration Server.
*To view package attributes and version number
1. In Package Navigator view, select the package whose properties you wish to view.
2. Click File > Properties.
3. In Properties for PackageName dialog box, select Package Attributes.
The Package Attributes page displays the version for the package since the last full release of the package. (A full release of a package incorporates all previous patches for the package.) For more information about package attributes, see Package Properties.
Note:
When the server administrator installs a full release of a package (a release that includes all previous patches for the package), Integration Server removes the existing patch history. This helps the server administrator avoid potential confusion about version numbers and re-establish a baseline for package version numbers.
