Checklist for upgrading production servers to 2.8
Sites to be upgraded on damocles.met.no:
- damocles (owns damocles_metadata and damocles_userbase)
- dokipy
- ipycoord
- gcwdemo
Other sites:
- arcticdata (separate server)
Phase 1. Preparation
Site configuration
This should ideally be setup via https://svn.met.no/projects/metamodapps/, but will take too long to figure out. Instead will use existing generated master_config as starting point and backmerge changes to svn later. Custom styles ignored at this point - must be added later.
Must be repeated for each site.
Metamod source
- checkout to /metno/metamod/metamod28/trunk as root
- chown to damocles (needed for building)
Phase 2. Setting up new database
Only done once.
- which xml files should be used to populate the DB?
- /metno/metamod/damocles/webrun/XML/DAMOC ?
Phase 3. Setting up prototype
This will setup a generic Metamod 2.8 instance to test the system is running. Customization will be done afterwards, and the installation re-run.
Must be repeated for each site.
Generate target
Test Catalyst
Apache configuration
Install services
Do not run install_jobs.sh; instead install links manually.
Phase 4. Adding custom functions and styling
Todo by someone else (have no idea what is required and how to implement it).
Must be repeated for each site.
