Finding SQL Server Version and Edition in Linux

[birojnayak]

Hi Team,
Is there a way in LINUX we can figure out SQL Server Version and Edition ? (Without connecting to SQL Server and running SQL Command). In windows you can get the information from registry, if there is something in the Linux too ?

not really a dbatools question but as far as I'm aware, there's not.

some information is there https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/linux/sql-server-linux-troubleshooting-guide?view=sql-server-ver16#access-the-log-files which print the version/edition, can this be relied ? I understand this is not dbatools question, but this group has lots of knowledge around SQL Server :).
