Notes:
1 You will need to match the product level with the Additional Information section below to find the fixpack. 2 File is in <itim home>/data. 3 File, if present, is in the <itdi home> directory.
Additional Information Sometimes (but not always) an upgrade will leave files to indicate what patches have been applied.
ITDI FixPacks FixPacks to v6.0 of ITDI has a file called ITDI_INSTALL>/fixpack<n>.properties. So theoretically the highest numbered one of these will tell you what FP you're on.
ITIM Version/Fixpack The messages.properties file (<itim home>/data) is updated when a fixpack is applied. If you look at the top of the file you will see an entry similar to:
