Checking the MapR Core Version

Some maintenance operations require you to know the version of the currently installed MapR release (sometimes referred to as the "MapR core version"). You can check the MapR core version easily from within the Control System or MapR Installer user interface or identify the version from your installed packages.

Checking the MapR Core Version Using the Control System

The Control System displays the MapR core version on the Overview page:

To connect to the Control System, see Setting Up the Control System.

Checking the MapR Core Version Using the MapR Installer

If you used the MapR Installer to install the cluster, you can view the MapR core version on the home page:

To set up the MapR Installer, see MapR Installer.

Checking the MapR Core Version Using maprcli

Another way to view the currently installed MapR core version is to use the maprcli dashboard info command:
cd /opt/mapr/bin
maprcli dashboard info -json

Checking the MapR Core Version Using the Installed Packages

Another way to view the currently installed MapR core version is to check the versions of the installed mapr-core.x86_64 or mapr-core-internal.x86_64 packages. Use one of the following commands to display the MapR package versions:
On CentOS / Red Hat yum list installed
On SLES zypper packages --installed-only
On Ubuntu apt list --installed
For example:
yum list installed
    Loaded plugins: fastestmirror
    Repodata is over 2 weeks old. Install yum-cron? Or run: yum makecache fast
    Determining fastest mirrors
     * base: mirrors.cat.pdx.edu
     * epel: mirror.prgmr.com
     * extras: mirrors.usc.edu
     * updates: mirrors.sonic.net
