Hi, I'm currently running 1.2.1 in production and I'm looking to upgrade to 1.3.1. I install from source and everything runs nicely out of /<install dir>/riak/. I happen to use /db/riak/...
# ls /db/riak/ bin data erts-5.9.1 etc lib log releases # I came across these two pages when trying to figure out my upgrade plan: http://docs.basho.com/riak/latest/cookbooks/Rolling-Upgrades/#RHEL-CentOS http://riak-users.197444.n3.nabble.com/Reformatting-2i-in-Riak-1-3-1-td4027781.html It all seems pretty straight forward, but the docs.basho.com page does not mention the "riak-admin reformat-indexes" command as mentioned on the other page. I want to know if it is necessary for most typical upgrades? I'm not sure if it's something you do only when you are using secondary indexes or what? If it doesn't hurt to run regardless, then I have no problem doing so. Assuming I make a backup of /data (which contains the following: bitcask kv_vnode mr_queue ring ssl_distribution.args_file), here's what I think my plan will be (the various commands to run) on each of the hosts during the rolling upgrade: /db/riak/bin/riak stop <<install new code and preserve /data>> /db/riak/bin/riak start /db/riak/bin/riak-admin status /db/riak/bin/riak-admin wait-for-service riak_kv riak@`hostname` /db/riak/bin/riak-admin transfers /db/riak/bin/riak-admin reformat-indexes <--- maybe? Does that seem about right?
