From the response you shared you have another elasticsearch running in the same machine that was installed using the `.tar.gz` file. > [@beju](#): > > { > "name" : "advance365", > "cluster\_name" : "ChefInfraServer-3d152032", > "cluster\_uuid" : "7ij3IHo2Ts-ANF\_UIsGZsg", > "version" : { > "number" : "6.8.12", > "build\_flavor" : "oss", > "build\_type" : "tar", > "build\_hash" : "7a15d2a", > "build\_date" : "2020-08-12T07:27:20.804867Z", > "build\_snapshot" : false, > "lucene\_version" : "7.7.3", > "minimum\_wire\_compatibility\_version" : "5.6.0", > "minimum\_index\_compatibility\_version" : "5.0.0" > }, > "tagline" : "You Know, for Search" > } As you can see by this: ```auto "build_flavor" : "oss", "build_type" : "tar" ``` This means that the elasticsearch that answered your request is the _oss_ distribution that was installed using the `.tar.gz` package. ---

HI Leandrojmp, Thanks for your reply. Yes you are right earlier the installation is done with the help of tar file but now it is done by directly downloading the package, and completely uninstall the old Elasticsearch. Is there any method with which this response can be fetched from the new installation. Thanks, ---
