This page last changed on Dec 07, 2008 by alui.
Step 1. Identify your Bamboo directoriesGo to the 'System Info' page in the 'Administration' menu of your Bamboo instance and note the location of the Bamboo Home, Build Data Path and Configuration Path directories: Step 2. Shut down BambooYou need to shut down Bamboo before backing up or performing the upgrade. Step 3. Back up BambooBack up the three directories you identified in Step 1 — your Bamboo Home, Build Data Path and Configuration Path directories (for more information about these directories please see Important Directories and Files). Note that it is not necessary to back up your Working Directory (located inside your Bamboo Home directory). Step 4. Re-install Bamboo
Step 5. Update pluginsIf you are using any plugins other than the ones that ship with Bamboo, check that each one is compatible with the new version of Bamboo. Upgrade any plugins that are out-of-date, and disable any plugins that are incompatible with your new version of Bamboo. Step 6. Re-configure external user repositories (if applicable)
Step 7. Start BambooOnce you have installed Bamboo and set the 'bamboo.home' property (as described in the Installation Guides), start Bamboo. The upgrade process will be performed when Bamboo starts up. You will not see the Setup Wizard. Monitor the atlassian-bamboo.log to ensure that the upgrade process has completed successfully. Step 8. Re-index Bamboo (if indicated in release notes)Bamboo maintains an index of its build results. This allow Bamboo to display aggregate build results information across builds. You may need to perform a re-index of Bamboo if the upgrade process requires it. This step may or may not be required (depending on the upgrade versions). Also note that you only need to do this if you have existing data in Bamboo. To re-index, go to 'Administration', then 'Indexing', and click the 'Reindex' button.
TroubleshootingIf you have any problems during upgrade, please raise a support request at https://support.atlassian.com/ and attach your atlassian-bamboo.log so we can help you find out what's gone wrong. |
