Generic upgrade instructions

Before each upgrade, it is advised to make a backup of configuration files and databases. Here is an example of procedure.

  • Create a directory that contains the backup configuration (here, /tmp/pulse2-backup) :
    mkdir -p / tmp/pulse2-backup
    
  • Archive configuration files :
    tar zc /etc/mmc > /tmp/pulse2-backup/_etc_mmc-`date +%Y%m%d%H%M%S`-`hostname`.tar.gz
    
  • Dump databases :
    for i in inventory msc dyngroup; do mysqldump $i | gzip -f > /tmp/pulse2-backup/mysqldump-$i-`date +%Y%m%d%H%M%S`.sql.gz; done
