When connection is established with a HiRDB at another node, the HiRDB version should be checked. The following points must be taken into consideration when the two HiRDB versions are different:
- Only facilities supported by the earlier version of HiRDB are available.
- Only data types supported by the earlier version of HiRDB are available.
- If the return code from the distributed server is not listed in the current manual, see the appropriate manual for the distributed server's version.
