∟Installing and Running Java DB - Derby

∟"sysinfo" - Checking Java DB (Derby) Installation

This section describes how to use 'sysinfo' to verify Java DB installation.

Assuming that you have Java DB (Derby) installed on your local Windows, Linux or macOS system, you can use the "sysinfo" tool as suggested in Java DB documents to verify the installation: 

(on Windows system)
herong> %DERBY_HOME%\bin\sysinfo

(on Linux or macOS system)
herong$ $DERBY_HOME/bin/sysinfo
