This page provides further details for upgrading to EMI BDII.

== Requirements ==

The following components need to be fairly recent:

* ncm-gip2 >= 2.7.1-1
* ncm-lcgbdii >= 2.7.1-1

== Upgrading from EMI-1.0 to EMI-2.0 ==

1. Deploy the upgrade
2. Repair files overwritten by the new RPMs:
{{{
ncm-ncd --configure lcgbdii gip2
}}}

== Upgrading from gLite-2 to EMI ==

These instructions only apply for a standalone BDII, '''be careful if collocating with another service'''.

1. Nothing on BDII nodes needs preserving, so a re-install is a good alternative.

2. Temporarily disable Quattor on the node:
{{{
touch /etc/noquattor
}}}
3. Deploy the upgrade
4. Clean up, removing all gLite, BDII, gip, ldap2.4 and yaim related RPMs and directories
5. Re-enable Quattor and reconfigure:
{{{
rm /etc/noquattor
ccm-fetch
ncm-ncd --configure lcgbdii gip2
}}}

== Upgrading from gLite-1 to EMI ==

Not supported, re-install.
