Replication server
This page shows how to upgrade a standalone replication server in place. A standalone replication server has no local user data. If the server holds user data, see Directory server instead.
If you are adding a new server to an existing deployment, see When adding new servers instead.
|
Before upgrading, make sure you stop the server. Once you have unpacked the new server files, do not modify the server configuration until after you have completed the upgrade process. |
-
Prepare for upgrade as described in Before you upgrade.
-
Stop the server.
-
Proceed to upgrade the server:
-
When upgrading a server installed from the cross-platform ZIP distribution:
-
Unpack the new files over the old files as described in Unpack files.
-
Run the upgrade command to bring the server up to date with the new software delivery.
By default, the
upgradecommand runs interactively, requesting confirmation before making important configuration changes. For some potentially long-duration tasks, such as rebuilding indexes, the default choice is to defer the tasks until after upgrade.You can use the
--no-promptoption to run the command non-interactively. In this case, the--acceptLicenseoption lets you accept the license terms non-interactively.When using the
--no-promptoption, if theupgradecommand cannot complete because it requires confirmation for a potentially long or critical task, then it exits with an error, and a message about how to finish making the changes. You can add the--forceoption to force a non-interactive upgrade to continue in this case, also performing long-running and critical tasks.
-
-
When upgrading a server installed from native packages, use the system package management tools.
-
-
Start the upgraded server.
At this point the upgrade process is complete. See the resulting
upgrade.logfile for a full list of operations performed. -
If you disabled the Windows service to upgrade, enable it again:
C:\path\to\opendj\bat> windows-service.bat --enableService
