Synopsis

[--verbose={false|true}]
[--local={false|true}]

Description

The version subcommand displays version information for Payara Server. By default, if the subcommand cannot contact the domain administration server (DAS), the subcommand retrieves the version information locally and displays a warning message.

This subcommand is supported in remote mode and local mode.

Options

asadmin-options: Options for the asadmin utility. For information about these options, see the asadmin help page.
--help
-?: Displays the help text for the subcommand.
--verbose
-v: If this option is set to true, the subcommand provides the version of the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) that the server is running. The default is false.
--local: If this option is set to true, the subcommand obtains the version locally from the installation of Payara Server on the host where the subcommand is run.

If this option is set to false (default), the subcommand attempts to contact the DAS to obtain the version. If the attempt to contact the DAS fails, the subcommand retrieves the version locally and displays a warning message.
