Question
FP2 : Why does de_version not work anymore?
Cause
After applying Netcool/OMNIbus v7.4. fix pack 2 Java 7 is installed.
Which causes de_version to break:
C:\Program Files (x86)\IBM\Common\acsi\bin>de_version
Answer
Netcool/OMNIbus 7.4.0 uses an older InstallAnywhere and JVM.
Therefore when Netcool/OMNIbus 740 FP2 is installed it uses the newer IA/JVM combination,
DE updates from 1.4.0.16 to 1.4.0.23 and swaps out the original JRE 1.6 with the current version included with InstallAnywhere, which is Java 7.
This causes problems with some of the DE commands.
Applying one of the integration packages, such as the Syslog Probe will resolve the issue.
