PingDirectory

Updating the server

Before you begin

  • An existing version of the server is stored at PingData-server-old.

  • Make sure a complete, readable backup of the existing system is available before upgrading the server.

  • There is a clear backout plan and schedule.

Steps

  1. Download the latest version of the server software and unzip the file.

    For this example, the new server is located in the PingData-server-new directory.

  2. Use the update tool of the newly unzipped build to update the server.

  3. Specify the server instance that is being upgrading with the --serverRoot option.

  4. To apply the update, stop the server.
