For future reference I created a document on the BMC Communities with more versions - https://communities.bmc.com/docs/DOC-37267

Good to have some clarification. On 23 June 2015 at 12:01, Walters, Mark <mark_walt...@bmc.com<mailto:mark_walt...@bmc.com>> wrote: ** That’s the initial release of 8.1 SP2.

Just a quick question on version numbers; difficult to get an answer to this for myself on the BMC site at the moment due to issues on our support contract (we have one, but it doesn't seem to list everything). We have some older systems for which "we" (the internal dev team) were responsible and are definitely patched - for example, our 7.6.04 system is running on 7.6.04 SP4. Our v7.5 system is reporting that it is on 7.5.00 Patch 004. We have a newer 8.1 system that has been installed for us by an external provider, which is reporting "8.1.02 201408260235". Going by the "old" version numbering, this looks to be unpatched? Or is it 8.1 patch 02? So just looking for confirmation on version numbering for v8.1 .... (hopefully it isn't too complicated!)
