Upgrade

Upgrading a XiVO CC is done by executing commands through a terminal on the server.

Note

Downgrade is not supported

Overview

The upgrade consists of the following steps:

  • switch the version via xivo-dist utility

  • upgrade via the xivocc-upgrade utility: it will upgrade the system (Debian packages) and the XiVOCC containers

Warning

This upgrade procedure applies only to XiVO CC installed via the xivocc-installer package.

Preparing the upgrade

There are two cases:

  1. Upgrade to another LTS XiVO CC version,

  2. Upgrade to the latest Bugfix release of your current installed LTS version.

Upgrade to another LTS version

To upgrade to another XiVO Solution LTS:

  1. Switch the sources to the new XiVO CC LTS version with xivo-dist, for example, to switch to Gaia LTS version:

    xivo-dist xivo-gaia
    
  2. Read carefully the Release Notes starting from your current version to the version you target (read even more carefully the New features and Behavior changes between LTS)

  3. Check the specific instructions and manual steps from your current LTS to your targetted LTS and all intermediate LTS: see Manual steps for LTS upgrade

  4. Check also if you are in a specific setup that requires a specific procedure

  5. And then upgrade, see Upgrading

Upgrade to latest Bugfix release of an LTS version

Important

For version older than Five (2017.03), see XiVO Five documentation

After the release of a version (e.g. Freya (2020.18)) we may backport some bugfixes in this version. We will then create a subversion (e.g. Freya .04 (2020.18 .04)) shipping these bugfixes. These bugfix version does not contain any behavior change.

To upgrade to the latest subversion of your current installed version you need to:

  1. Read carefully the Release Notes starting from your installed version (e.g. Freya.00) to the latest bugfix release (e.g. Freya.04).

  2. Verify that the debian sources list corresponds to your installed LTS or refix it, for example for Freya:

    xivo-dist xivo-freya
    
  3. Verify that the /etc/docker/compose/factory.env file has

    • XIVOCC_TAG=VERSION (where VERSION is your current installed version - e.g. 2020.18)

    • and XIVOCC_DIST=latest

  4. And then upgrade, see Upgrading
