Problems upgrading rsync in Redhat

I have installed rsync version 3.0.6 protocol version 30 and want to upgrade to version 3.1.1 or 3.1.2.

If I try to install using yum I get that is already installed latest version

# yum -y install rsync
Package rsync-3.0.6-12.el6.x86_64 already installed and latest version
Nothing to do

I've tried download the versions rsync-3.1.1.tar and rsync-3.1.2.tar to install manually sending

./configure
make install

I don't see any visible error when sending both commands above, but when I check the rsync --version again, the version still is 3.0.6.

What I'm doing wrong?

The linux version below: 

# cat /proc/version
Linux version 2.6.32-573.3.1.el6.x86_64 ([email protected]) (gcc version 4.4.7 20120313 (Red Hat 4.4.7-16) (GCC) ) #1 SMP Thu Aug 13 22:55:16 UTC 2015
# cat /etc/issue
CentOS release 6.7 (Final)
Kernel \r on an \m

Thanks for any help

make install

Doing make install probably installed your new version into some different paths or partially overwrote your previous installation. It is usually not a good idea to do this. Better way of is checking at least what configure options are used by redhat.

Anyway, from the make install log, you should see the paths where was your new rsync installed.
