There are a couple of ways to tell depending on whether you have access to the Admin Console or not.

Via the Admin Console
If you want to check the version of ConfigMgr running on the Site Server your Admin console connects to by default:

  1. Load the ConfigMgr Administrator Console.
     
  2. Navigate to "System Center Configuration Manager | Site Database (<site_code> – <description>) | Site Management".
     
  3. Right-click the relevant Site and from the context menu select "Properties" which will display the "<site_code> – <description> Properties" screen. This shows the version number (which for ConfigMgr 2007 will always be 4.00), with the build number as follows:
  • RTM = 5931

  • SP1 = 6221

  • SP2 = 6487

NOTES:

  1. If you have an International Client Pack (ICP), installed then the second digit of the last block will either be a "4" for ICP 1 or a "7" for ICP 2. For example on a ConfigMgr 2007 Site Server with ICP 2 installed the version number will show as "4.00.6487.2700".

  2. If R2 is installed You will see "Yes" beside "R2 installed:" on this screen as shown below:

Without the Admin Console [added 02/07/10]
If you don't have access to the ConfigMgr Admin Console or if loading it would take a significant amount of time there are a couple of ways of finding out the version number of a ConfigMgr Site Server:

  • Setup.exe Properties

  • Registry

Setup.exe Properties

  1. Navigate to the "<drive>:\Program Files\Microsoft Configuration Manager\bin\i386" directory (or the drive or directory where ConfigMgr has been installed to).
  2.  Right-click "SETUP.EXE" and select "Properties" from the context menu.
  3. Click the "Details" tab.
  4. The "Product version" field displays the version of ConfigMgr as shown below.

NOTE: As R2 doesn't change the version number this method will not tell you if R2 is installed on the Site or not.  

Registry

The version number is stored in the following Registry Key as shwon below for a SP2 Site Server:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\SMS\Setup\Version
