Upgrade from previous releases

The instructions below work with the Virtual Appliance, as well as with the Docker installation.

If you always want to stay on the most current version of APIIDA API Gateway Manager you can set your docker files to use the ‘latest’ tag. For a full list of all available tags see the listing on Docker Hub.

To Upgrade the APIIDA API Gateway Manager please execute the following steps:

Optional: Backup your data (see section below).
Stop the Docker Containers
docker-compose down
Change the version in docker-compose.yml to whatever version you are upgrading to for the image apiida/aagm.
Upgrade the Docker images with
docker-compose pull
Restart the Docker containers
docker-compose up -d

If you are using the APIIDA Solution Kit for Monitoring, please additionally do the following steps to upgrade the solution kit:

Follow this instruction: https://apiida.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/AAGM/pages/7760740363
Instead of installing a new solution kit, please select the previous version and click on [Upgrade].
Please restart all gateway instances in the cluster

Backing up your data

All persistent data is stored in the folder /opt/aagm within the image. If you use our default docker-compose file this directory is mapped to a value with the name “aagm-vol”. See the Docker documentation on how to backup a volume.
