Using MarkLogic Content Pump (mlcp)

Checking Your Runtime Environment

You can use the mlcp version command to generate a report of key software versions mlcp detects in your runtime environment. This is useful for confirming your path and other environment settings create the environment you expect or mlcp requires.

For example, the command below reports the version of mlcp, and the Java JRE that mlcp will use at runtime, plus the versions of MarkLogic supported by this version of mlcp.

$ mlcp.sh version
ContentPump version: 8.0
Java version: 1.7.0_45
Supported MarkLogic versions: 6.0 - 8.0

Note that not all features of mlcp are supported by all versions of MarkLogic, even within the reported range of supported versions. For example, if MarkLogic version X introduces a new feature that is supported by mlcp, that doesn’t mean you can use mlcp to work with the feature in MarkLogic version X-1.
