!!! Overview
[{$pagename}] is __ridiculous__.
It is nearly impossible to determine the [Version] of [eDirectory]
!! Help Us.
We have gathered this information as it is not generally available from many sources.
The Release Notes[1] from [NetIQ] are not informative as to how they determined the version and inconsistent with Observations. (We have not installed every version either)
We are obtaining the [{$pagename}] information by using:
%%prettify
{{{
ndsd --version
}}} /%
No idea how to get the [OpenSSL] version that [eDirectory] uses.
We obtain [Java] version by executing:
%%prettify
{{{
/opt/novell/eDirectory/lib64/nds-modules/jre/bin/java -version
}}} /%
%%information
[Java] could be upgraded by [DirXML] which affects the [eDirectory] version. (As far as we know)
%%
Or by the Release Notes[1] from [NetIQ]
!! [EDirectory 9.0.0.0 (40002.79)]

!! What is missing
How the version information is obtained. Nearly every module within [EDirectory] has a different version.
!! MARKETING STRING FORMAT
The marketing version string using the following format:
%%prettify
{{{
[product] [major version].[minor version].[update/support pack].[interim release number]
}}} /%
[Example]: eDirectory 8.7.3.1
Product Management owns the contents of the Marketing String. This string will be available at the beginning of each new release. The Marketing String has NO association with the Version Number. Each product component will ship with the same Marketing String in a given release..
!! VERSION NUMBER FORMAT
The following is an example of the build string found on an eDirectory component.
[Example]: 10110.20
This new format is strictly a build format to keep track of each build as it is released. The number is composed of a release number, a sub-release number, a release source, a build number and a build source. The following builds and their equivalencies are listed below:
These versions are all available from the Novell support download site.
Note: The last eDirectory version supported on [NetWare] is [Edirectory 8.8.5.0 (20219.15)|EDirectory 8.8.5.0 (20219.15)]. Therefore, the later versions of [eDirectory] no longer track the version on that platform.
!! [Examples] of [{$pagename}]
* Using [ndsd|NDSD] --version
** NetIQ eDirectory 9.0.2 v40004.44
* [NcpServer]
** dsRevision: 4000512
** Version: eDirectory for Linux x86_64 v9.0.3 [[DS]
* [rootDSE]
** vendorVersion: LDAP Agent for NetIQ eDirectory 9.0.3 (40005.14)
So what is the real [{$pagename}]?
!! Other [eDirectory] Product [Versions]
* [DirXML-DriverVersion]
* [DirXML Engine Version]
* [NICI Version] details how we obtain the information for [NICI]
