server version command

The server version command displays the version information of the named server and the current Java runtime environment (JRE).

Usage examples

Find out the version information of the myserver server:

server version myserver

Syntax

Run the command from the path_to_liberty/wlp/bin directory.

server version serverName
serverName

The name of the server to run the command against. If no server name is specified, the default defaultServer server name is used. If no server name is specified and no defaultServer server exists, the command displays the version of the Liberty installation.

If the named server specifies a particular JRE with the JAVA_HOME variable in the server.env file, the command displays the version for that JRE. Otherwise, the system default version is displayed.
