[Testbed-admins] Emulab Upgrade issues



Hello Utah,

Here at Testbed@Twisc, we've been trying to upgrade our Emulab installation from version 4.105 to version 5.0.
We've examined closely the database-migrate.txt document and have some questions/issues that you can help us with.

 

First off, our methodology.

We built 'boss' and 'ops' on the new server machine,
and transferred these directories and files from our old 4.104 installation to the new 5.0 server machine

 

boss(4.104) =====> new boss(5.0)
old file

ops  (4.104) =====>new ops  (5.0)


boss:
database
/etc/group
/etc/ssh/
/etc/hosts/
/etc/master.password
/groups
/root/.ssh/
/www
/usr/testbed/images
/etc/hosts/
/tftpboot

and ops:
/etc/group
/etc/hosts/
/etc/ssh/
/etc/master.password
/proj
/users
/groups
/root/.ssh
/etc/mail/aliases

Hopefully we haven't missed anything.

We ran into some issues
1) the new table 'emulab_pubs_month_map' is not mentioned anywhere in the database-migrate file. Can you provide some information on it ?
2) many tables have changes to their index key and primary key, but database-migrate doesn't document any of this.

Do you happen to have more complete information on how to do the upgrade and cutover ?

By the way, we have read upgrade document on your web site.

 

Thanks,
Miss. Chang
