Chapter 5. Migration
This chapter provides information on migrating to versions of components included in Red Hat Software Collections 2.1.
5.1. Migrating to MariaDB 10.0
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 contains MySQL 5.1 as the default MySQL implementation. Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 includes MariaDB 5.5 as the default MySQL implementation. MariaDB is a community-developed drop-in replacement for MySQL. In addition to these basic versions, MariaDB 5.5 has been available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 as a Software Collection since Red Hat Software Collections 1.0.
The rh-mariadb100 Software Collection available for both Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 does not conflict with the mysql or mariadb packages from the core systems, so it is possible to install the rh-mariadb100 Software Collection together with the mysql or mariadb packages. It is also possible to run both versions at the same time, however, the port number and the socket in the
my.cnf
files need to be changed to prevent these specific resources from conflicting.
Note that it is possible to upgrade to MariaDB 10.0 only from MariaDB 5.5 or MySQL 5.5. If you need to upgrade from an earlier version, upgrade to MariaDB 5.5 or MySQL 5.5 first. Instructions how to upgrade to MariaDB 5.5 or MySQL 5.5 are available in the Red Hat Software Collections 1.2 Release Notes.
5.1.1. Notable Differences Between the mariadb55 and rh-mariadb100 Software Collections
MariaDB 10.0 is built on the MariaDB 5.5 series with backported features from MySQL 5.6 and with entirely new features unavailable elsewhere. The rh-mariadb100 Software Collection introduces the following notable changes:
- The service has been renamed to
rh-mariadb100-mariadb
in both Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 - The
test
database is no longer created by default - Configuration files for the rh-mariadb100 Software Collection are the
/etc/opt/rh/rh-mariadb100/my.cnf
file and in the/etc/opt/rh/rh-mariadb100/my.cnf.d/
directory - Variable files including the database files for the rh-mariadb100 Software Collection are located in the
/var/opt/rh/rh-mariadb100/lib/
directory - The log file for the MariaDB daemon is
/var/opt/rh/rh-mariadb100/log/mariadb/mariadb.log
- The pid file for the daemon is
/var/run/rh-mariadb100-mariadb/mariadb.pid
Note that the rh-mariadb100 Software Collection supports neither mounting over NFS nor dynamical registering using the
scl register
command.
For detailed changes, refer to the MariaDB documentation.
If you are going to upgrade from MySQL, refer to the articles about compatibility and features differences.
5.1.2. Upgrading to the rh-mariadb100 Software Collection
Important
Prior to upgrading, back-up all your data, including any MariaDB or MySQL databases.
Upgrading can be performed either by using the mysqldump and mysqlimport utilities or using an in-place upgrade.
- In the former scenario, the whole dump of all databases from one database is generated and
mysql
is run with the dump file as an input using themysqlimport
orLOAD DATA INFILE SQL
command within the other database. At the same time, the appropriate daemons have to be running during both dumping and restoring. You can use the--all-databases
option in themysqldump
call to include all databases in the dump. The--routines
,--triggers
, and--events
options can also be used if needed. - During the in-place upgrade, the data files are copied from one database directory to another database directory. The daemons must not be running at the time of copying. Set appropriate permissions and SELinux context for the copied files.
After upgrading, start the server and run the
mysql_upgrade
command. Running mysql_upgrade
is necessary to check and repair internal tables.
In case the
root
user has a non-empty password defined (it should have a password defined), it is necessary to call the mysql_upgrade
utility with the -p
option and specify the password.
Service names and paths bellow depend on which version you are upgrading from.
Example 5.1. Dump and Restore Upgrade
- Create a backup from MariaDB.
- If you are upgrading from MariaDB 5.5 from base Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7:
~]#
service mariadb start
Starting mariadb: [ OK ] ~]#mysqldump --all-databases --routines --events > dump.sql
~]#service mariadb stop
Stopping mariadb: [ OK ] - If you are upgrading from the mariadb55 Software Collection in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6:
~]#
service mariadb55-mysqld start
Starting mariadb55-mysqld: [ OK ] ~]#scl enable mariadb55 -- mysqldump --all-databases --routines --events > dump.sql
~]#service mariadb55-mysqld stop
Stopping mariadb55-mysqld: [ OK ] - For upgrading from the mariadb55 Software Collection in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7, use
mariadb55-mariadb
as the service name. - For upgrading from the mysql55 Software Collection, use
mysql55-mysqld
as the service name.
- Import the dumped database into the rh-mariadb100 Software Collection:
~]#
service rh-mariadb100-mariadb start
Starting rh-mariadb100-mariadb: [ OK ] ~]#scl enable rh-mariadb100 'mysql' < dump.sql
~]#scl enable rh-mariadb100 'mysql_upgrade -u root -p'
Enter password: Looking for 'mysql' as: mysql Looking for 'mysqlcheck' as: mysqlcheck Running 'mysqlcheck with default connection arguments Running 'mysqlcheck with default connection arguments a.t1 OK mysql.columns_priv OK <skipped tables list> mysql.user OK Running 'mysql_fix_privilege_tables'... OK
Example 5.2. In-place Upgrade from MariaDB 5.5
If you are upgrading from MariaDB 5.5 from base Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7, perform the upgrade as shown in the following example:
~]#service mariadb stop
Stopping mariadb: [ OK ] ~]#service rh-mariadb100-mariadb stop
Stopping rh-mariadb100-mariadb: [ OK ] ~]#rm -rf /var/opt/rh/rh-mariadb100/lib/mysql/
~]#cp -r /var/lib/mysql/ /var/opt/rh/rh-mariadb100/lib/
~]#chown -R mysql:mysql /var/opt/rh/rh-mariadb100/lib/mysql/
~]#restorecon -R /var/opt/rh/rh-mariadb100/lib/mysql/
~]#service rh-mariadb100-mariadb start
Starting rh-mariadb100-mariadb: [ OK ] ~]#scl enable rh-mariadb100 'mysql_upgrade -u root -p'
Enter password: Looking for 'mysql' as: mysql Looking for 'mysqlcheck' as: mysqlcheck Running 'mysqlcheck with default connection arguments Running 'mysqlcheck with default connection arguments a.t1 OK mysql.columns_priv OK <skipped tables list> mysql.user OK Running 'mysql_fix_privilege_tables'... OK
For upgrading from the mariadb55 Software Collection{;, use the
/opt/rh/mariadb55/root/var/lib/mysql/
as a source when copying the data.
For upgrading from the mysql55 Software Collection, use the
/opt/rh/mysql55/root/var/lib/mysql/
as a source when copying the data.
For further details, refer to the articles about upgrading from MariaDB 5.5 or upgrading from MySQL 5.5.
5.2. Migrating to MongoDB 2.6
MongoDB 2.4 has been available since Red Hat Software Collections 1.1 as the mongodb24 Software Collection. Red Hat Software Collections 2.1 is shipped with MongoDB 2.6 provided by the rh-mongodb26 Software Collection.
5.2.1. Notable Differences Between MongoDB 2.4 and MongoDB 2.6
General Changes
The rh-mongodb26 Software Collection introduces several general changes listed below.
- Service files have been renamed:
- The
/etc/rc.d/init.d/mongodb24-mongodb
service file for the MongoDB daemon has been renamed to/etc/rc.d/init.d/rh-mongodb26-mongod
- The
/etc/rc.d/init.d/mongodb24-mongodb-shard
service file for the MongoDB sharding server has been renamed to/etc/rc.d/init.d/rh-mongodb26-mongos
- Configuration and system configuration files have been renamed:
- The
mongod
daemon uses the/etc/opt/rh/rh-mongodb26/mongod.conf
and/etc/opt/rh/rh-mongodb26/sysconfig/mongod
configuration files - The
mongos
sharding server uses the/etc/opt/rh/rh-mongodb26/mongos.conf
and/etc/opt/rh/rh-mongodb26/sysconfig/mongos
configuration files
- The log files have been relocated:
- The
mongod
daemon now writes log to the/var/opt/rh/rh-mongodb26/log/mongodb/mongod.log
file - The
mongos
sharding server writes log to the/var/opt/rh/rh-mongodb26/log/mongodb/mongos.log
file
- The default
mongos
port number has been changed from27019
to27017
- The rh-mongodb26-mongodb-test package, which contains the MongoDB test suite, has been added. For more information about usage, install this package and read the
/opt/rh/rh-mongodb26/root/usr/share/mongodb-test/README
file. - The rh-mongodb26 Software Collection supports neither mounting over NFS nor dynamical registering using the
scl register
command.
Compatibility Changes
MongoDB 2.6 includes various minor changes that can affect compatibility with previous versions of MongoDB. For a brief list of compatibility changes in MongoDB 2.6, refer to the Knowledgebase article on the Red Hat Customer Portal. For details on compatibility changes, see the MongoDB documentation.
Authentication Changes
MongoDB 2.6 authorization model introduces changes in the way MongoDB stores and manages user privilege information:
- MongoDB 2.6 requires at least one user in the
admin
database with theuserAdminAnyDatabase
role. Make sure that this user exists before you upgrade. - You will not be able to create or modify users or create user-defined roles in MongoDB versions that use previous authorization models.
For details on authentication changes, see the MongoDB documentation.
5.2.2. Upgrading from the mongodb24 to the rh-mongodb26 Software Collection
Note that once upgraded to MongoDB 2.6, you cannot downgrade to any version earlier than MongoDB 2.4. If you created text or
2dsphere
indexes while running MongoDB 2.6, you can downgrade only to MongoDB 2.4.10 or later versions.
Important
Before migrating from the mongodb24 to the rh-mongodb26 Software Collection, back up all your data, including any MongoDB databases, which are by default stored in the
/opt/rh/mongodb24/root/var/lib/mongodb/
directory.
To upgrade to the rh-mongodb26 Software Collection, perform the following steps as
root
.
- Install the MongoDB server from the rh-mongodb26 Software Collection:
yum install rh-mongodb26
- Stop the
mongodb24
server in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6:service mongodb24-mongodb stop
Use thesystemctl stop mongodb24-mongodb.service
command instead if you are using Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7. - Copy your data into the new location:
cp -a /opt/rh/mongodb24/root/var/lib/mongodb/* /var/opt/rh/rh-mongodb26/lib/mongodb
- Change the
dbpath
variable in the/opt/rh/mongodb24/root/etc/mongodb.conf
file to/var/opt/rh/rh-mongodb26/lib/mongodb/
. - Start the
mongodb24
server in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6:service mongodb24-mongodb start
Use thesystemctl start mongodb24-mongodb.service
command if instead you are using Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7. - Install the
mongo
shell from the rh-mongodb26 Software Collection:yum install rh-mongodb26-mongodb
- Connect the
mongo
shell from the rh-mongodb26 Software Collection to yourmongodb24
server (for example, running onlocalhost
, port27017
; you do not needroot
privileges for this step):scl enable rh-mongodb26 'mongo --host localhost --port 27017 admin'
- In the
mongo
shell, run thedb.upgradeCheckAllDBs()
function to check your data set for compatibility:db.upgradeCheckAllDBs()
See the MongoDB documentation for more information about thedb.upgradeCheckAllDBs()
function. - Resolve all issues identified by
db.upgradeCheckAllDBs()
and compatibility issues mentioned above that affect your application. - Stop the
mongodb24
server in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6:service mongodb24-mongodb stop
Use thesystemctl stop mongodb24-mongodb.service
command instead if you are using Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7. - Make the mongodb24 Software Collection runnable after the upgrade by changing the
dbpath
variable back to the previous value (/opt/rh/mongodb24/root/var/lib/mongodb/
by default) in the/opt/rh/mongodb24/root/etc/mongodb.conf
file. - Configure the
rh-mongodb26-mongod
daemon in the/etc/opt/rh/rh-mongodb26/mongod.conf
configuration file. - Start the MongoDB server from the rh-mongodb26 Collection in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6:
service rh-mongodb26-mongod start
Use thesystemctl start rh-mongodb26-mongod.service
instead if you are using Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7. - Upgrade the authorization model as described in the MongoDB documentation. Note that it is recommended to run your MongoDB deployment for a day or two before you upgrade the user authorization model because downgrades are more difficult after the user authorization model has been upgraded. Before you upgrade the authorization model, you will not be able to create or modify users or to use user-defined roles.
For detailed information about upgrading, refer to the MongoDB documentation, or particularly about upgrading a Replica Set or a Sharded Cluster.
5.3. Migrating to MySQL 5.6
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 contains MySQL 5.1 as the default MySQL implementation. Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 includes MariaDB 5.5 as the default MySQL implementation. In addition to these basic versions, MySQL 5.5 has been available as a Software Collection for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 since Red Hat Software Collections 1.0 and for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 since Red Hat Software Collections 1.1.
The rh-mysql56 Software Collection available for both Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 does not conflict with the mysql or mariadb packages from the core systems, so it is possible to install the rh-mysql56 Software Collection together with the mysql or mariadb packages. It is also possible to run both versions at the same time, however, the port number and the socket in the
my.cnf
files need to be changed to prevent these specific resources from conflicting.
Note that it is possible to upgrade to MySQL 5.6 only from MySQL 5.5. If you need to upgrade from an earlier version, upgrade to MySQL 5.5 first. Instructions how to upgrade to MySQL 5.5 are available in the Red Hat Software Collections 1.2 Release Notes.
5.3.1. Notable Differences Between MySQL 5.5 and MySQL 5.6
The rh-mysql56 Software Collection introduces the following notable changes:
- The service has been renamed to
rh-mysql56-mysqld
in both Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 - The
test
database is no longer created by default - Configuration files for the rh-mysql56 Software Collection are the
/etc/opt/rh/rh-mysql56/my.cnf
file and in the/etc/opt/rh/rh-mysql56/my.cnf.d/
directory - Variable files including the database files for the rh-mysql56 Software Collection are located in the
/var/opt/rh/rh-mysql56/lib/
directory - The log file for the MySQL daemon is
/var/opt/rh/rh-mysql56/log/mysql/mysqld.log
- The pid file for the daemon is
/var/run/rh-mysql56-mysqld/mysqld.pid
Note that the rh-mysql56 Software Collection supports neither mounting over NFS nor dynamical registering using the
scl register
command.
For detailed changes, refer to the MySQL documentation.
5.3.2. Upgrading to the rh-mysql56 Software Collection

Service names and paths bellow depend on which version you are upgrading from.
Example 5.3. Dump and Restore Upgrade
- Create a backup from the mysql55 Software Collection:
~]#
service mysql55-mysqld start
Starting mysql55-mysqld: [ OK ] ~]#scl enable mysql55 -- mysqldump --all-databases --routines --events > dump.sql
~]#service mysql55-mysqld stop
Stopping mysql55-mysqld: [ OK ]For upgrading from the mariadb55 Software Collection in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6, usemariadb55-mysqld
as the service name.For upgrading from the mariadb55 Software Collection in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7, usemariadb55-mariadb
as the service name.For upgrading from MariaDB 5.5 from base Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7, usemariadb
as the service name and do not usescl enable mysql55 --
when creating the dump. - Import the dumped database into the rh-mysql56 Software Collection:
~]#
service rh-mysql56-mysqld start
Starting rh-mysql56-mysqld: [ OK ] ~]#scl enable rh-mysql56 'mysql' < dump.sql
~]#scl enable rh-mysql56 'mysql_upgrade -u root -p'
Enter password: Looking for 'mysql' as: mysql Looking for 'mysqlcheck' as: mysqlcheck Running 'mysqlcheck with default connection arguments Running 'mysqlcheck with default connection arguments a.t1 OK mysql.columns_priv OK <skipped tables list> mysql.user OK Running 'mysql_fix_privilege_tables'... OK
Example 5.4. In-place Upgrade from MySQL 5.5
If you are upgrading from the mysql55 Software Collection, perform the upgrade as shown in the following example:
~]#service mysql55-mysqld stop
Stopping mysql55-mysqld [ OK ] ~]#service rh-mysql56-mysqld stop
Stopping rh-mysql56-mysqld: [ OK ] ~]#rm -rf /var/opt/rh/rh-mysql56/lib/mysql/

OK
For upgrading from the mariadb55 Software Collection, use the
/opt/rh/mariadb55/root/var/lib/mysql/
as a source when copying the data.
For upgrading from MariaDB 5.5 from base Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7, use the
/var/lib/mysql/
as a source when copying the data.
For more details about migration to MySQL 5.6, refer to the MySQL documentation.
5.4. Migrating to PostgreSQL 9.4
Red Hat Software Collections 2.1 is distributed with PostgreSQL 9.4, which can be safely installed on the same machine in parallel with PostgreSQL 8.4 from Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 or PostgreSQL 9.2 from Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 or Red Hat Software Collections 1. It is also possible to run more than one version of PostgreSQL on a machine at the same time, but you need to use different ports or IP addresses and adjust SELinux policy.
5.4.1. Notable Differences Between PostgreSQL 9.2 and PostgreSQL 9.4
The most notable changes between PostgreSQL 9.2 and PostgreSQL 9.4 are the following:
- PostgreSQL 9.4 no longer includes native support for Kerberos authentication (for example, using the
--with-krb5
option). As consequence, thekrb_srvname
option is not available anymore. The supported way to use Kerberos authentication is with Generic Security Services API (GSSAPI). - Since PostgreSQL 9.4, the
replication_timeout
configuration option has been split into thewal_receiver_timeout
andwal_sender_timeout
options. - The
scl register rh-postgresql94
command is unsupported and the rh-postgresql94 Software Collection is not supported to run over NFS.
The following table provides an overview of different paths in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux system version of PostgreSQL (postgresql) and in the postgresql92 and rh-postgresql94 Software Collections. Note that the paths of PostgreSQL 8.4 distributed with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 and the system version of PostgreSQL 9.2 shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 are the same.

5.4.2. Migrating from a Red Hat Enterprise Linux System Version of PostgreSQL to the PostgreSQL 9.4 Software Collection
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 includes PostgreSQL 8.4, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 is distributed with PostgreSQL 9.2. To migrate your data from a Red Hat Enterprise Linux system version of PostgreSQL to the rh-postgresql94 Software Collection, you can either perform a fast upgrade using the
pg_upgrade
tool (recommended), or dump the database data into a text file with SQL commands and import it in the new database. Note that the second method is usually significantly slower and may require manual fixes; see the PostgreSQL documentation for more information about this upgrade method. The following procedures are applicable for both Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 system versions of PostgreSQL.
Important
Before migrating your data from a Red Hat Enterprise Linux system version of PostgreSQL to PostgreSQL 9.4, make sure that you back up all your data, including the PostgreSQL database files, which are by default located in the
/var/lib/pgsql/data/
directory.
Procedure 5.1. Fast Upgrade Using the pg_upgrade
Tool
To perform a fast upgrade of your PostgreSQL server, complete the following steps:
- Stop the old PostgreSQL server to ensure that the data is not in an inconsistent state. To do so, type the following at a shell prompt as
root
:service postgresql stop
To verify that the server is not running, type:service postgresql status
- Verify that the old directory
/var/lib/pgsql/data/
exists:file /var/lib/pgsql/data/
and back up your data. - Verify that the new data directory
/var/opt/rh/rh-postgresql94/lib/pgsql/data/
does not exist:file /var/opt/rh/rh-postgresql94/lib/pgsql/data/
If you are running a fresh installation of PostgreSQL 9.4, this directory should not be present in your system. If it is, back it up by running the following command asroot
:mv /var/opt/rh/rh-postgresql94/lib/pgsql/data{,-scl-backup}
- Upgrade the database data for the new server by running the following command as
root
:scl enable rh-postgresql94 -- postgresql-setup --upgrade
Alternatively, you can use the/opt/rh/rh-postgresql94/root/usr/bin/postgresql-setup --upgrade
command.Note that you can use the--upgrade-from
option for upgrade from different versions of PostgreSQL. The list of possible upgrade scenarios is available using the--upgrade-ids
option.It is recommended that you read the resulting/var/lib/pgsql/upgrade_rh-postgresql94-postgresql.log
log file to find out if any problems occurred during the upgrade. - Start the new server as
root
:service rh-postgresql94-postgresql start
It is also advised that you run theanalyze_new_cluster.sh
script as follows:su - postgres -c 'scl enable rh-postgresql94 ~/analyze_new_cluster.sh'
- Optionally, you can configure the PostgreSQL 9.4 server to start automatically at boot time. To disable the old system PostgreSQL server, type the following command as
root
:chkconfig postgresql off
To enable the PostgreSQL 9.4 server, type asroot
:chkconfig rh-postgresql94-postgresql on
- If your configuration differs from the default one, make sure to update configuration files, especially the
/var/opt/rh/rh-postgresql94/lib/pgsql/data/pg_hba.conf
configuration file. Otherwise only thepostgres
user will be allowed to access the database.
Procedure 5.2. Performing a Dump and Restore Upgrade
To perform a dump and restore upgrade of your PostgreSQL server, complete the following steps:
- Ensure that the old PostgreSQL server is running by typing the following at a shell prompt as
root
:service postgresql start
- Dump all data in the PostgreSQL database into a script file. As
root
, type:su - postgres -c 'pg_dumpall > ~/pgdump_file.sql'
- Stop the old server by running the following command as
root
:service postgresql stop
- Initialize the data directory for the new server as
root
:scl enable rh-postgresql94-postgresql -- postgresql-setup --initdb
- Start the new server as
root
:service rh-postgresql94-postgresql start
- Import data from the previously created SQL file:
su - postgres -c 'scl enable rh-postgresql94 "psql -f ~/pgdump_file.sql postgres"'
- Optionally, you can configure the PostgreSQL 9.4 server to start automatically at boot time. To disable the old system PostgreSQL server, type the following command as
root
:chkconfig postgresql off
To enable the PostgreSQL 9.4 server, type asroot
:chkconfig rh-postgresql94-postgresql on
- If your configuration differs from the default one, make sure to update configuration files, especially the
/var/opt/rh/rh-postgresql94/lib/pgsql/data/pg_hba.conf
configuration file. Otherwise only thepostgres
user will be allowed to access the database.
5.4.3. Migrating from the PostgreSQL 9.2 Software Collection to the PostgreSQL 9.4 Software Collection
To migrate your data from the postgresql92 Software Collection to the rh-postgresql94 Collection included in Red Hat Software Collections 2.1, you can either perform a fast upgrade using the
pg_upgrade
tool (recommended), or dump the database data into a text file with SQL commands and import it in the new database. Note that the second method is usually significantly slower and may require manual fixes; see the PostgreSQL documentation for more information about this upgrade method.
Important
Before migrating your data from PostgreSQL 9.2 to PostgreSQL 9.4, make sure that you back up all your data, including the PostgreSQL database files, which are by default located in the
/opt/rh/postgresql92/var/lib/pgsql/data/
directory.
Procedure 5.3. Fast Upgrade Using the pg_upgrade
Tool
To perform a fast upgrade of your PostgreSQL server, complete the following steps:
- Stop the old PostgreSQL server to ensure that the data is not in an inconsistent state. To do so, type the following at a shell prompt as
root
:service postgresql92-postgresql stop
To verify that the server is not running, type:service postgresql92-postgresql status
- Verify that the old directory
/opt/rh/postgresql92/var/lib/pgsql/data/
exists:file /opt/rh/postgresql92/var/lib/pgsql/data/
and back up your data. - Verify that the new data directory
/var/opt/rh/rh-postgresql94/lib/pgsql/data/
does not exist:file /var/opt/rh/rh-postgresql94/lib/pgsql/data/
If you are running a fresh installation of PostgreSQL 9.4, this directory should not be present in your system. If it is, back it up by running the following command asroot
:mv /var/opt/rh/rh-postgresql94/lib/pgsql/data{,-scl-backup}
- Upgrade the database data for the new server by running the following command as
root
:scl enable rh-postgresql94 -- postgresql-setup --upgrade --upgrade-from=postgresql92-postgresql
Alternatively, you can use the/opt/rh/rh-postgresql94/root/usr/bin/postgresql-setup --upgrade --upgrade-from=postgresql92-postgresql
command.Note that you can use the--upgrade-from
option for upgrading from different versions of PostgreSQL. The list of possible upgrade scenarios is available using the--upgrade-ids
option.It is recommended that you read the resulting/var/lib/pgsql/upgrade_rh-postgresql94-postgresql.log
log file to find out if any problems occurred during the upgrade. - Start the new server as
root
:service rh-postgresql94-postgresql start
It is also advised that you run theanalyze_new_cluster.sh
script as follows:su - postgres -c 'scl enable rh-postgresql94 ~/analyze_new_cluster.sh'
- Optionally, you can configure the PostgreSQL 9.4 server to start automatically at boot time. To disable the old PostgreSQL 9.2 server, type the following command as
root
:chkconfig postgresql92-postgreqsql off
To enable the PostgreSQL 9.4 server, type asroot
:chkconfig rh-postgresql94-postgresql on
- If your configuration differs from the default one, make sure to update configuration files, especially the
/var/opt/rh/rh-postgresql94/lib/pgsql/data/pg_hba.conf
configuration file. Otherwise only thepostgres
user will be allowed to access the database.
Procedure 5.4. Performing a Dump and Restore Upgrade
To perform a dump and restore upgrade of your PostgreSQL server, complete the following steps:
- Ensure that the old PostgreSQL server is running by typing the following at a shell prompt as
root
:service postgresql92-postgresql start
- Dump all data in the PostgreSQL database into a script file. As
root
, type:su - postgres -c 'scl enable postgresql92 "pg_dumpall" > ~/pgdump_file.sql'
- Stop the old server by running the following command as
root
:service postgresql92-postgresql stop
- Initialize the data directory for the new server as
root
:scl enable rh-postgresql94-postgresql -- postgresql-setup --initdb
- Start the new server as
root
:service rh-postgresql94-postgresql start
- Import data from the previously created SQL file:
su - postgres -c 'scl enable rh-postgresql94 "psql -f ~/pgdump_file.sql postgres"'
- Optionally, you can configure the PostgreSQL 9.4 server to start automatically at boot time. To disable the old PostgreSQL 9.2 server, type the following command as
root
:chkconfig postgresql92-postgresql off
To enable the PostgreSQL 9.4 server, type asroot
:chkconfig rh-postgresql94-postgresql on
- If your configuration differs from the default one, make sure to update configuration files, especially the
/var/opt/rh/rh-postgresql94/lib/pgsql/data/pg_hba.conf
configuration file. Otherwise only thepostgres
user will be allowed to access the database.
5.5. Migrating to nginx 1.8
The root directory for the rh-nginx18 Software Collection is located in
/opt/rh/rh-nginx18/root/
. The error log is stored in /var/opt/rh/rh-nginx18/log/nginx
by default, and the init script is called rh-nginx18-nginx
.
Configuration files are now stored in the
/etc/opt/rh/rh-nginx18/nginx/
directory. Configuration files in nginx 1.8 have the same format as in the previous versions and they are compatible among versions 1.4, 1.6, and 1.8.
Important
Before upgrading from nginx 1.6 to nginx 1.8, back up all your data, including web pages and configuration files located in the
/opt/rh/nginx16/root/
tree.
If you have made any specific changes, such as changing configuration files or setting up web applications, in the
/opt/rh/nginx16/root/
tree, replicate those changes in the new /opt/rh/rh-nginx18/root/
and /etc/opt/rh/rh-nginx18/nginx/
directories, too.
You can use this procedure to upgrade directly from nginx 1.4 to nginx 1.8. Use the appropriate paths for nginx 1.4 in this case.
