Upgrade program
AgileApps Cloud uses an upgrade program to update from an existing application server to the target application server. The upgrade program migrates the custom JARs from the existing application server to the target application server.
-
Note: 10.9 is the target application server.
Prerequisites:
- Set the value for max_allowed_packet property in my.cnf or my.cfg (MySQL configuration files) under [client], [mysqld] & [mysqldump] sections. If you are installing any package through Packages using AgileApps Cloud application, you must have at least 512 MB of RAM or ten times the size of package.
- Verify the privileges to access the database with the username, password, host-name and port as mentioned in the com.softwareag.catalina.resource.pid-agileappsRN.properties file under the target application server. Use the following command to ensure that you have the database access:
- mysqldump -u<DB_USER_NAME> -p<DB_PASSWORD> -h<DB_SERVER_HOST_NAME> -P<DB_PORT> db<DB_NUMBER> > db<DB_NUMBER>.sql
- For example: mysqldump -uthomas -pthomas-hvmaalind05 -P3306 db1108948326 > db1108948326.sql
