Identify your IBM i Details

Installing LANSA on IBM i

Identify your IBM i Details

You will need to provide the following details when you request a license. You will also need to supply this information when requesting support.

  • Processor, Serial and Model Number
  • LANSA System
  • IBM i Operating System version.

If you are using LANSA, you can use the LANSA command: LANSA ABOUT to locate this information. You may need to qualify the command with the LANSA program library, for example, DCXPGMLIB/LANSA ABOUT.

If you're not yet using LANSA, you can obtain this information using the WRKSYSVAL command from an IBM i Command Entry. On the Work System Values screen, use option 5 to display the required values:

  • System serial number (QSRLNBR)
  • System model number (QMODEL)
  • Processor Feature (QPRCFEAT).

To display a single system value, you may also use the DSPSYSVAL command.  For example, DSPSYSVAL QPRCFEAT will display the Processor Feature code.
