Update BRIX Standard

The update process for BRIX Standard (KinD) is simple and is carried out similarly to the installation process.

Update order

To ensure data integrity when migrating with a version change of the BRIX edition, it is recommended to update each major version without skipping any. For instance, version 2023.2.1 can be updated to 2023.3.1.

If you need to update your chart for more than one version, install each major version until you reach the latest chart.

Important: in each version, install the latest minor release.

Step 1: Download installation script

For online installation:
Download the installation script for the current version of BRIX Standard (KinD) into a separate directory:

sudo curl -fsSL -o elma365-docker.sh https://dl.elma365.com/onPremise/latest/elma365-docker-latest && \
sudo chmod +x elma365-docker.sh && \
sudo ./elma365-docker.sh

For offline installation without internet access:

  1. On a computer with internet access, download the necessary files for the current offline version (downloaded files size is approximately 4-5GB) by executing the following command:

sudo curl -fsSL -o elma365-docker-offline.sh https://dl.elma365.com/onPremise/latest/elma365-docker-offline-latest && \
chmod +x elma365-docker-offline.sh && \
./elma365-docker-offline.sh

  1. The boot script will create a directory named elma365-X.Y.Z in the directory from which it was launched, and will download the necessary files into it.
  2. Once the files for the offline version are downloaded, the boot script will display information about the directory where the files were saved and will suggest copying them to a computer in a closed circuit.

Example of executing the boot script:

  1. After downloading all the files, copy the resulting elma365-X.Y.Z directory to the server where the installation will be carried out.

Download links for other BRIX versions are provided in Links for downloading BRIX distribution packages.

Step 2: Copy the configuration file

Copy the configuration file config-elma365.txt from the directory of the current installation to the directory with the latest version of the installation script elma365-installer-docker.sh.
The installation script will utilize the existing settings from the configuration file config-elma365.txt.
