Type Details
Hello. We've SCG installed. Version is 5.30.00.14. It is installed as a VM (SLES 15 or so), so under VMware Systems. But, when we do df -Th, we do see docker filesystems. And, docker images are also seen. And, lots of docker commands are used to check the status etc. So, we want to know which one we have. Any CLI command to find it out. Or, any GUI way to check it.
Is it SCG 5.30.00.14 - Docker & Podman, Or, it is Secure Connect Gateway Virtual Edition 5.30.00.14 for VMware Systems.
I recall when it was first installed, it was via an OVF file (and not a .bin file), so my guess will be SCG Virtual Edition 5.30.00.14 for VMware Systems. But Docker images are also there. So....
Thanks.

Hi,
There isn't a command to check the difference between the 2 versions installed. The VE edition will have the same docker images as those dockers are used for the internal SCG services. There is no CLI guidance published for the docker commands.
Perhaps you can try cat /etc/esrsclient.conf ? ConfigurationType should appear as VE, that would mean that Virtual Edition has been used to install.

Hi,
If you can remember that you installed using OVF file, that would be the Virtual Edition VMWare. After installing, the package does have other docker that is being used for its microservices. I can't be sure which services are on which docker, but if you feel uncomfortable with any container/docker filesystem; you can reach out to the SCG support and raise a case to check with engineering. There isn't any documentation available for reference unfortunately, that I can find.

@DELL-Joey C Thanks. But there has to be a way to clearly identify this and the difference between the two. Not totally satisfied with the answer. Thanks.

You should be able to run
cat /etc/os-release
which should show SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES), then you can use either
docker ps | grep scg
or
/opt/dell/scg/scripts/scg-version.sh
to identify the specific SCG version.
Let me know if this helps.

@DELL-Chris H Hi. I don't want to identify SCG version. I know how to check that: 'grep ContainerEdition' provides that easily. Btw, last two commands are also not working. May be those are there in fresh scg installs. We've /opt/esrsve , there is no folder like /opt/dell/scg; as years ago it was ESRS Gateway Server (EMC's original Secure Remote Services), then came SCG, and we're advised to upgrade. Thanks.
