NAME

       pki-server-upgrade - Tool for upgrading PKI server configuration.

SYNOPSIS

       pki-server [CLI-options] upgrade [OPTIONS]

DESCRIPTION

       There are two parts to upgrading PKI server: upgrading the system configuration files used
       by both the client and the server processes and upgrading the server configuration files.

       When upgrading PKI server, the  existing  server  configuration  files  (e.g.  server.xml,
       web.xml)  may need to be upgraded because the content may have changed from one version to
       another.   The  configuration  upgrade  is  executed  automatically  during  RPM  upgrade.
       However, in case there is a problem, the process can also be run manually using pki-server
       upgrade.

       The server upgrade process is done  incrementally  using  upgrade  scriptlets.   A  server
       consists  of  the server instance itself and the subsystems running in that instance.  The
       upgrade process executes one scriptlet at a time, running through each  component  (server
       instance  and  subsystem)  in parallel and completing before executing the next scriptlet.
       If one component encounters an error, that component is skipped in the subsequent  upgrade
       scriptlets.   The  upgrade process and scriptlet execution for each component is monitored
       in upgrade trackers.  A counter shows the  latest  index  number  for  the  most  recently
       executed  scriptlet; when all scriptlets have run, the component tracker shows the updated
       version number.

       The scriptlets are stored in the upgrade directory:

              /usr/share/pki/server/upgrade/<version>/<index>-<name>

       The version is the server version to be upgraded. The index is the script execution order.
       The name is the scriptlet name.

       During  upgrade,  the  scriptlets  will  back  up  all changes to the file system into the
       following folder:

              /var/log/pki/server/upgrade/<version>/<index>

       The version and index values indicate the scriptlet being executed.  A copy of  the  files
       and  folders  that are being modified or removed will be stored in oldfiles.  The names of
       the newly-added files and folders will be stored in newfiles.

       The instance upgrade process is tracked using this file:

              /var/lib/pki/<instance>/conf/tomcat.conf

       The subsystem upgrade process is tracked using this file:

              /var/lib/pki/<instance>/<subsystem>/conf/CS.cfg

       The file stores the current configuration version and the last successful scriptlet index.

OPTIONS

   General options
       --status
           Show upgrade status only without performing the upgrade.

       --revert
           Revert the last version.

       -i, --instance instance
           Upgrade a specific instance only.

       -X
           Show advanced options.

       -v, --verbose
           Run in verbose mode.

       -h, --help
           Show this help message.

   Advanced options
       The advanced options circumvent  the  normal  upgrade  process  by  changing  the  tracker
       information.

       WARNING: These options may render the system unusable.

       --remove-tracker
           Remove the tracker.

       --reset-tracker
           Reset the tracker to match the package version.

       --set-tracker version
           Set the tracker to a specific version.

OPERATIONS

   Upgrade process
       To start the upgrade process:

              $ pki-server upgrade

   Upgrade status
       To check the upgrade status:

              $ pki-server upgrade --status

   Troubleshooting
       Check  the  scriptlet  to  see  which  operations  are  being executed.  Once the error is
       identified and corrected, the upgrade can be resumed by re-running pki-server upgrade.

       If necessary, the upgrade can be run in verbose mode:

              $ pki-server upgrade --verbose

       It is possible to rerun a failed upgrade for a specific instance:

              $ pki-server upgrade --instance pki-tomcat

   Reverting an upgrade
       If necessary, the upgrade can be reverted:

              $ pki-server upgrade --revert

       Files and folders that were created by the scriptlet will be removed.  Files  and  folders
       that were modified or removed by the scriptlet will be restored.
