Upgrading a Cluster

Update Database

If you are upgrading a cluster from a version before the 1.2.3 release (ES 3.7.3), you must log into one of the nodes (using SSH) and run the following command:

# /opt/aspera/bin/asnodeadmin --db-update

Enable Activity Bandwidth Logging

When upgrading a cluster from a version before the 1.2.2 release, you must update the aspera.conf configuration file on the running cluster configuration and in the launch template with this setting:

<server>
 <activity_bandwidth_logging>true</activity_bandwidth_logging>
</server>

Note: This aspera.conf setting is now required by the Cluster Manager to use the Node API for querying status of transfers. New cluster templates in 1.2.2+ already provide this new setting.
