You can upgrade
from
TeamForge
8.0
to TeamForge
8.1.
You can upgrade on the same server where your current TeamForge site is running, or you can take this
opportunity to move your site to a new server. Choose the instructions that fit your
case.
Note:
- If you are upgrading from TeamForge
6.1.1, 6.2 (including Patch 1) or 7.0 to TeamForge
8.1, you can run the
indexupgrade.py script, which converts the Lucene 3.x
indices to Lucene 4.4 format. No need to run this script if you are upgrading
from TeamForge 7.1 or
later
to 8.1. For more information
about the indexupgrade.py script, see Upgrade TeamForge search index to Lucene 4.x format. However, if you choose to re-index data,
it takes a lot of time and the search service would have to be down till then.
Instead, if you choose to upgrade your existing indices, you can convert your
site's search indices to Lucene 4.x format quickly using the
indexupgrade.py script with less downtime of the search
service.
- If you are upgrading from TeamForge
6.1 or earlier versions to TeamForge
8.1, you must re-index your
site completely. This could be time consuming and depends on the size of data.
