Amahi 9 Upgrade
WARNING | |
---|---|
This is the Development page for Amahi 9 on Fedora 23. It IS NOT production ready. |
Warning! |
---|
The Amahi team strongly recommends installing from scratch over the upgrade.
|
- NOTE:
- There is no upgrade path from Fedora 14 or Ubuntu 12.04 LTS to Amahi 9. This will require a new install. The HDA OS Migration Guide might be helpful.
- For Amahi 7 users, an Amahi 8 Upgrade will be needed before the Amahi 9 upgrade can be accomplished (be advised this is untested).

Upgrading Amahi 8 to Amahi 9
Preparation
We recommend you turn on a temporary DHCP server, (e.g. in your router) since the network may go down for the duration of the actual upgrade.
All commands are executes as root
user or precede commands with sudo
- Works best if apps are uninstalled
- Back up your data as a precaution
- Update everything in the system:
yum -y update
- Reboot to pick up new kernels, etc:
shutdown -r now
- Update everything in the system again:
yum -y update
- If there are any updates, do it again. If there are new kernels, reboot:
shutdown -r now
Execution
Install the upgrade tool:
yum -y install fedup
Do the live update over the network:
fedup -y --network 23 --nogpgcheck
Once the previous fedup command is complete, you will be prompted to run:
dnf system-upgrade reboot
The actual upgrade will take place now, so you will not be able to access the server (or possibly the network) until it is complete.
It would be good to have a monitor/keyboard on the system to cover the risk that the upgrade process becomes stuck somehow. This also should let you keep up with progress.
Be aware it may take 15 to 30 minutes at a minimum for the upgrade to complete, depending on your hardware.
Post Upgrade
Once the upgrade is complete, execute the following to disable the firewall:
sudo systemctl stop firewalld sudo systemctl disable firewalld sudo systemctl stop rolekit sudo systemctl disable rolekit
You now should be able to access the dashboard at http://hda.
