MariaDB ColumnStore single server software upgrade from 1.0.1 to 1.0.2

Note: Calpont.xml modifications you manually made are not automatically carried forward on an upgrade. These modifications will need to be incorporated back into .XML once the upgrade has occurred.

The previous configuration file will be saved as /usr/local/MariaDB/Columnstore/etc/Calpont.xml.rpmsave.

In 1.0.2, the configuration file name was changed to Columnstore.xml. Check the 1.0.2 Release Notes on how to perform the upgrade from the 1.0.1 to the 1.0.2. There is a work-around procedure to follow.

Upgrade workaround

After you have completed the part of the package upgrade process (removing the old package and installing the 1.0.2 package), the following file will exist: /usr/local/mariadb/columnstore/etc/Calpont.xml.rpmsave Run the following commands, this is the work-around part that is only required when going from 1.0.0/1.0.1 to 1.0.2

  1. cd /usr/local/mariadb/columnstore/etc/
  2. cp Calpont.xml.rpmsave Columnstore.xml.rpmsave
  3. sed -i 's/Calpont Version/Columnstore Version/g' Columnstore.xml.rpmsave
  4. sed -i 's/Calpont.xml/Columnstore.xml/g' Columnstore.xml.rpmsave
  5. sed -i 's/<\/Calpont>/<\/Columnstore>/g' Columnstore.xml.rpmsave Then you can run the install script to upgrade the system:
  6. /usr/local/mariadb/columnstore/bin/postConfigure -u

Choosing the type of upgrade
