File Checksum / Hashes
The following table provides the MD5 and SHA256 file hash for recent Delphix versions, in the instance that a security policy requires exception for software installation.

How Do I Find the Current Installed Connector Version?
There are several methods available to determine the version of a program currently installed.
Windows Add / Remove Programs
The Windows control panel Add / Remove Programs applet can be used to determine the installed version of a given program, by locating the program in question and checking the Version column, as illustrated below.
Registry via PowerShell script
For automation or other scripted solutions to check current version, a PowerShell script can be leveraged to interrogate the Windows Registry and quickly output the current version of the Connector, as illustrated below.
PS C:\> .\getConnectorVersion.ps1 DelphixConnector: Microsoft.PowerShell.Core\Registry::HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{5FA36D43-10B7-4CA4-ADA0-9781E5BF70C8}\DisplayVersion: 1.12.0
The getConnectorVersion.ps1 PowerShell script is hyperlinked.
PowerShell Get-CimInstance cmdlet (not recommended)
In case the PowerShell script referenced above cannot be utilized, the Get-CimInstance PowerShell cmdlet can be leveraged. This option will typically take longer to return a result, and will be dependent on server activity and size of the host, number of programs installed, etc. This is not disruptive, but the response time may not be desirable.
PS C:\Users\Administrator> Get-CimInstance -Class Win32_Product | Where-Object Name -eq "DelphixConnector" Name Caption Vendor Version IdentifyingNumber ---- ------- ------ ------- ----------------- DelphixConnector DelphixConnector Delphix 1.12.0 {5FA36D43-10B7-4CA4-ADA0-9781E5BF70C8}
Optionally, the cmdlet can also be limited to only display the Version column, and even strip headers by appending the format table option.
PS C:\Users\Administrator> Get-CimInstance -Class Win32_Product | Where-Object Name -eq "DelphixConnector"| select Version | ft -HideTableHeaders 1.12.0
How do I Find the Connector Version in a Downloaded MSI?
At the time of this document publication, the Connector Version is not included in the downloaded MSI filename, so it can be difficult to determine the MSI version when multiple downloads exist, such as on a centralized file share.
In these instances, the MSI file must be interrogated to extract the ProductVersion field. A PowerShell script (hyperlinked) derived from https://www.scconfigmgr.com/2014/08/22/how-to-get-msi-file-information-with-powershell/ can be leveraged to accomplish this. Example output below.
PS C:\Users\Administrator\downloads> C:\getMsiVersion.ps1 -Path C:\Users\Administrator\Downloads\DelphixConnectorInstaller.msi -Property ProductVersion 1.12.0
Others have used this as a starting point to create a PowerShell function, but this is certainly optional depending on the needs to be addressed.
How do I Find the Connector Version in a Downloaded .EXE installer?
At this time, there is no method available to interrogate the installer to determine the Connector version. The version can be determined post-install using the methods discussed previously in this document. At the time of this document publish, any .EXE installer can be assumed to be 1.18.0 as this is the only released Connector available in Delphix Engine versions 6.0.5.0-6.0.7.0.
