Verifying installation logs

Determine the log file that you must check to verify the installation status on AIX® and Linux systems.

After you finish the installation, the idsinstall command shows appropriate messages that indicate whether the installation was successful or not. To verify whether the IBM® Security Verify Directory packages are installed, check the log file for the installation logs.

The log file is /tmp/idsinstall_timestamp.log.

Verify the installation log, then ensure that all packages are installed successfully and are at the required level. For more information about querying the version number of the installed packages, see Querying the IBM Security Verify Directory packages.
