Software update

Before every update check installed packages version. Database version is particularly important.

# yum info kodo-cloud-server kodo-cloud-agent mariadb-server
# rpm -qa | egrep -e "kodo|Maria"

If the host computer has an Internet connection, use the yum command, you'll also see the new package versions provided by the repositories.

Kodo for Cloud Server update

• Make sure you have Kodo for Cloud database backup.

You can find how to backup database in Disaster Recovery

• If Kodo for Cloud Server was installed on a virtual machine (not a physical one), it would be a good move to take a snapshot

• After backing up the database, we should gently stop the Kodo for Cloud Server service:

# systemctl stop kodo-cloud-server

• Now you can update your server:

# yum -y update kodo-cloud-server

• When update is completed, you can start your server:

# systemctl start kodo-cloud-server

Kodo for Cloud Agent update

• We recommend to stop the Kodo for Cloud Agents.

# systemctl stop cloud-agent-AGENT_NAME

• Now you can update your server:

# yum -y update kodo-cloud-agent

• When update is completed, you can start your agent:

# systemctl start cloud-agent-AGENT_NAME
