Chapter 1. Checking which version you have installed


To begin troubleshooting, determine which version of Red Hat build of MicroShift you have installed.

1.1. Checking the version using the command-line interface

To begin troubleshooting, you must know your MicroShift version. One way to get this information is by using the CLI.

Procedure

  • Run the following command to check the version information:

    $ microshift version

    Example output

    Red Hat build of MicroShift Version: 4.17-0.microshift-e6980e25
    Base OCP Version: 4.17

1.2. Checking the MicroShift version using the API

To begin troubleshooting, you must know your MicroShift version. One way to get this information is by using the API.

Procedure

  • To get the version number using the OpenShift CLI (oc), view the kube-public/microshift-version config map by running the following command:

    $ oc get configmap -n kube-public microshift-version -o yaml

    Example output

    apiVersion: v1
    data:
      major: "4"
      minor: "13"
      version: 4.13.8-0.microshift-fa441af87431
    kind: ConfigMap
    metadata:
      creationTimestamp: "2023-08-03T21:06:11Z"
      name: microshift-version
      namespace: kube-public

1.3. Checking the etcd version

You can get the version information for the etcd database included with your MicroShift by using one or both of the following methods, depending on the level of information that you need.

Procedure

  • To display the base database version information, run the following command:

    $ microshift-etcd version

    Example output

    microshift-etcd Version: 4.17.1
    Base etcd Version: 3.5.13

  • To display the full database version information, run the following command:

    $ microshift-etcd version -o json

    Example output

    {
      "major": "4",
      "minor": "16",
      "gitVersion": "4.17.1~rc.1",
      "gitCommit": "140777711962eb4e0b765c39dfd325fb0abb3622",
      "gitTreeState": "clean",
      "buildDate": "2024-05-10T16:37:53Z",
      "goVersion": "go1.21.9"
      "compiler": "gc",
      "platform": "linux/amd64",
      "patch": "",
      "etcdVersion": "3.5.13"
    }
