Single host upgrades

This article provides steps for upgrading single host TeamForge EventQ installations to the latest release.

The following steps pertain to TeamForge EventQ upgrades when all services are located on a single machine. Upon successful completion, TeamForge EventQ will be upgraded to the latest available release.
Important: The upgrade process stops the TeamForge EventQ App server while upgrading. Anticipate up to 20 minutes of end-user downtime from the time services are shut down.

Upgrade EventQ: Do this on the EventQ Server (my.eventq.host)

  1. Configure your installation repository.
  2. Once the yum repository is configured, update the EventQ RPM.
    • yum update CN-eventq

Back up the TeamForge EventQ system

  1. Before upgrading, backup TeamForge EventQ system and data, see Back up and restore EventQ data

Upgrade process

  1. Log into the TeamForge EventQ application server (App server) with a privileged account.
  2. Perform the upgrade by running upgrade-eventq-16.7.sh, passing the all flag.

    /opt/collabnet/eventq/bin/upgrade-eventq-16.7.sh all

    Note: The TeamForge EventQ web interface will be unavailable to end-users until after the upgrade process.

    Services will be restarted automatically upon completion.

  3. Verify that all services are running after upgrade-eventq-16.7.sh terminates

    The upgrade script should display a list of all services with [OK] denoting a successful restart.
