Upgrade Installation

If you have SpinFire Manage already installed, use the following steps for upgrading to a new version.

1. Gather the latest necessary files.

  1. C7-deploy-x.x.x.x.tar (ArangoDB on Linux) or C7-deploy-x.x.x.x.zip (ArangoDB on Windows).

  2. SpinFireManage.exe

2. Pause the pipelines.

  1. Navigate to the Pipeline Manager page.

  2. Pause each of the running pipelines to allow remaining jobs to complete.

3. Wait for any remaining jobs to finish processing.

To ensure, jobs are not cut off mid process, make sure all jobs from each pipeline are no longer running. To do this,

  1. For a given pipeline, go to the Jobs Explorer.

  2. Use the Status Filter for Starting or Started jobs.
  3. Jobs should appear in the results.

4. Backup critical data.

Best Practice

It is strongly recommended to follow the System Backup procedures before performing any SpinFire Manage upgrade as well as doing on a regular basis to back up your SpinFire Manage system.

5. Run the database script

  1. Unzip the files.

  2. For ArangoDB on Linux, run setup.sh. For ArangoDB on Windows, run setup.bat or setup.ps1.

Usage instructions for these scripts can be found in the readme.md file included in the unzipped folder.

6. Run SpinFireManage.exe to perform the upgrade.

The installer automatically upgrades the application and services.

Note: Client side browsers may need caches cleared.

NOTE: If the ArangoDB User or Password was changed during the deploy process, they must be updated in the configuration files for the Webapp and Pipeline Service to run.
