How to find installed.xml with out installing a product using IIM
![]()
Guys,
I have a typical scenario at work. We need to install IBM products and find the evidence that a particular product is installed. We are finding it through installed.xml written in /var/ibm/installationmanager/ after installing the product.
Is there any way can we get this file with out installing the product just from the installer file i.e binary?
We just need to get productName,Version and Publisher information from that file or from any source within the binary or repository config file.
Your help is much appreciated.
Regards,
Sriram

Hi,
Which version of IBM Installation Manager are you or will you be using? The imcl under the tools directory could help you to: listAvailablePackages listInstalledPackages and more Check the Infocenter Links (for IM 1.7 for example) for these commands. Hope this will help you. Regards, François Geoffrey Clemm selected this answer as the correct answer
Comments Thanks a lot François. imcl command did the trick for me.
/opt/IBM/InstallationManager/eclipse/tools/imcl listAvailablePackages -repositories ./repository.config -features -long
