Hello,

This part of the doc refers to a migration to another Rudder server (you have a Rudder Server A, and want to install on another system a Rudder Server B, and export everything from A to B), but they need to be both in the same version.
Copying everything from a 2.5 to a 2.9 will cause invalid configuration of the serveur.

If you really want to test the migration, you'll have to install a new Rudder 2.5, export all data from the existing Rudder server to the new Rudder server, and then upgrade the new Rudder server to 2.9

Regards,
Nicolas

Hello,

I'm sorry but I don't understand what doc you are referring to. Could you send a link to that doc, so I can try?

Hello,

As told in the doc (10.10.2), i copied the /var/rudder/configuration-repository and i have followed the procedure.

I don't want to upgrade my 2.5 server to 2.9, but i just want to test the migration between a 2.5 and a 2.9.

In previous version it was possible. I hope that someone got one other idea to correct the issue, Maybe there is a bug ?

Thanks

Hi,

I don't understand - which folder have you copied from the 2.5 server to the 2.9?

This is not the suggested way to upgrade a Rudder server. All our packages are designed for simple upgrade, so you can simply change the yum/apt repoistory and run "aptitude/yum install rudder-server-root" to upgrade. All data migrations are handled automatically. This is explained in http://www.rudder-project.org/rudder-doc-2.9/rudder-doc.html#_upgrade_rudder.

If you want to test this migration, rather than running it directly on your production server (which makes sense :) ), then you have two options:
1) If your server is a VM, the simplest is to clone it, and run the upgrade on the clone.
2) If you can't clone your server, then it will be harder to really test this upgrade. One option would be to reinstall a Rudder 2.5.4 version, then import your data (copy of /var/rudder/configuration-management, then git commit, then restore archive, then run yum/aptitude install rudder-server-root to upgrade to 2.9.2).

I hope this helps you.

Hello,

Our rudder-server-root version is 2.5 and we would like to test the migration to a 2.9 version.

I have created a new server in 2.9, then this folder /var/rudder/configuration-repository has been copied from the 2.5 server to the 2.9.

I have reloaded the technique library & restored the global archive with « latest git commit » but nothing appear after the deployement.

Have you got an idea ?

Thanks
