How to Upgrade SCDB

SCDB consists mainly in a set of client side tools, a Subversion server and an http server. Thus SCDB upgrades mainly consist of updating SCDB tools. In addition there a few Quattor specific RPMs on the Quattor server used for AII (initial installation of machines). This page describes how to upgrade each SCDB and Quattor specific parts. Refer to the relevant product documentation if you want to upgrade your http or Subversion server.

Note : SCDB has no http (generally Apache but not a requirement) or Subversion server version dependency.

Updating SCDB Tools

Updating with Eclipse

Updating AII

The only Quattor specific RPMs used with SCDB are installed on Quattor server for AII support. They are :

  • cdb-sync
  • ncm-template
  • aii-server

Other parts of SCDB have no dependency on these RPMs and they can be freely updated as needed, when new versions of these RPMs become available.

Updating SWrep

SWrep is the Quattor original service for managing RPM repositories. SCDB provides an alternative, based on plain http server and managed with SCDB Ant Tools (task update.rep.templates). If you want to use SCDB with SWrep, you have to also manage SWrep updates, using the standard upgrade procedure for SWrep.
