Upgrading  Procedure

Upgrading procedure contains  4 mandatory steps:

1. Backup (IMPORTANT!)

Please run the following command:

 sudo bash -c "$(curl -L https://download.skyformation.net/v2/download/installer/edge/migration_export.sh)" $@ 2>&1 | tee "migration-export-at-`date --iso-8601=ns`.log"

You will be asked to enter a path where your configurations will be saved. Please make sure it is a non-existing directory. 

You should see the message when the process is finished: 

"==> Done export! The backup dir is in:<Your backup directory>".

Service is now stopped, if you do not plan to proceed to the upgrade right now you can start it with the command:

sudo systemctl start sk4compose

2. Prerequisites

- Complete the tasks detailed at:
  SkyFormation Platform Prerequisites 

- Make sure you have your SkyFormation license key  

3. Running software updates

 SSH into the SkyFormation app machine with a "sudo"er account

command to use if you have no proxy

sudo bash -c "$(curl -L https://download.skyformation.net/v2/download/installer/edge/pre-update.sh)"

command to use if you are running behind a proxy

sudo bash -c "$(curl -x https://proxyserver:8080 -L https://download.skyformation.net/v2/download/installer/edge/pre-update.sh)"

Note: if you have an authenticated proxy, and you have special characters in your username or password, you need to send them the curl -x parameter in url-encoded format.

You may use the following command line on your terminal to see the encoded format of your user and password (in this example the password is ab$#^%cd, replace it with yours):

 In case you're having trouble logging into our docker repository, refer to this guide.
