Upgrading

The sections below contain instructions on how to upgrade the software installation from a previous version to stable rasdaman v10.4.

From v10.3

To upgrade from the previous stable version v10.3 to stable v10.4:

1. Update the repository metadata with sudo apt update
2. Stop rasdaman with sudo service rasdaman stop; make sure that the processes are really stopped: if ps aux | grep -E 'ras(mgr|server)' returns any processes, stop them with pkill -9 -f 'ras(mgr|server)'
3. Install the new rasdaman version with sudo apt install rasdaman

From testing

To upgrade from the testing repository to stable v10.4:

1. Change the testing package repository to the stable one in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/rasdaman.list
2. Stop rasdaman with sudo service rasdaman stop; make sure that the processes are really stopped: if ps aux | grep -E 'ras(mgr|server)' returns any processes, stop them with pkill -9 -f 'ras(mgr|server)'
3. Remove the current rasdaman package with sudo apt remove rasdaman; this is required because the stable package has the same version but a lower iteration number than the testing one
4. Update the repository metadata with sudo apt update
5. Install the new rasdaman version with sudo apt install rasdaman

From previous Ubuntu version

Check our ​migration guide for hints on how to upgrade your Ubuntu OS, or migrate your installation from one machine to another.

Note: Ubuntu 20.04 will ​reach EOL in April 2025, and rasdaman will soon stop offering packages for this OS version. It is recommend to upgrade to Ubuntu 22.04 as soon as possible.
