    • RHEL operating system

      rpm -qa | grep aksusbd
      rpm -qa | grep zpdtuim

    • UBUNTU operating system

      dpkg -l | grep aksusbd
      dpkg -l | grep zpdtuim

    Important: The installer creates the ibmsys1 as the non-root user ID to make ZD&T work, you need to switch to ibmsys1 and change the password. If you like to create the non-root user ID, use the following commands for reference. Make sure that the non-root user ID is a part of group zpdt.

    To create the user ID, use the following command:

    useradd -d /home/ibmsys2 -g zpdt -m ibmsys2

    To delete the user ID, use the following command:

    userdel -r ibmsys2
