How can I find out which version of Cassandra a specific DSE is running?


So far, I haven't found a place on Datastax documentation website that sums this up. Can I easily check the version some other way on a server?


Solution

  • Open cqlsh and type show VERSION.

    This gives all the versions of cqlsh, DSE, Cassandra etc.

    Version details

    admin@cqlsh> SELECT cql_version FROM system.local;
    
     cql_version
    -------------
           3.4.0
    

    Also, nodetool version shows the Cassandra version
