| Upgrading to VCL 2.4.2 |
| |
| VCL 2.4.2 is the first release to include an upgrade script. All you need to |
| upgrade VCL is the script. It will download and validate the VCL software and |
| then upgrade your system. The script can be used to upgrade all three parts of |
| VCL (database, web portal, and management node) or to upgrade each part |
| individually. |
| |
| Running the upgrade script with no arguments will step you through upgrading |
| all three parts of VCL. |
| |
| |
| ./vcl-upgrade.sh |
| |
| |
| Alternatively, any combination of the three parts of VCL can be upgraded by |
| passing arguments to the script. If upgrading the management node part of VCL, |
| it will also prompt you to agree to the installation of various system level |
| requirements needed for the code to run. The database upgrade portion does not |
| have to be run on the actual database server. The following are the arguments |
| available: |
| |
| vcl-upgrade.sh [-h|--help] [-d|--database] [-w|--web] [-m|--managementnode] |
| [--dbhost <hostname>] [--dbadminuser <username>] |
| [--dbadminpass <password>] |
| |
| -d|--database - upgrade database components |
| --dbhost may optionally be specified if not localhost |
| |
| -w|--web - upgrade web server components |
| |
| -m|--managementnode - upgrade management node (vcld) components |
| |
| --dbhost <hostname> - hostname of database server (default=localhost) |
| |
| --dbname <name> - name of VCL database on database server (default=vcl) |
| |
| --dbadminuser <username> - admin username for database; must have access |
| to modify database schema and dump data for backup (default=root) |
| |
| --dbadminpass <password> - password for dbadminuser (default=[no password]) |
| |
