Upgrade steps

Note:

Accelerite CloudPlatform management server must be up and running while performing the CloudPortal Business Manager (CPBM) upgrade.
Make sure that you take a backup of CPBM database (DB).
If upgrade fails, automatic system rollback is not supported. It is therefore strongly recommended to take the complete VM backup or snapshot of the CPBM server and DB.
For CPBM 2.5, the supported MySQL server version is 5.6. Therefore, you must first complete the upgrade to MySQL 5.6.
For CPBM 2.5, the supported Java version is 1.7. During the upgrade process, select "y" to upgrade to Java 1.7.

Pre-requisites:

Make sure that the cloud-portal service is stopped before the upgrade is performed. In a clustered setup, the cloud-portal service must be stopped on all nodes before upgrade.
Before upgrade, if the cloud.properties file contains encrypted values of any property, they must be replaced by the clear-text (or decrypted) values. These properties can be replaced by encrypted values post upgrade. The cloud.properties file path is: /etc/cloud/portal/cloud.porperties.
The value of the following MySQL variables must be 1:
- auto_increment_increment
- auto_increment_offset
Use this MySQL command to check the value of the variables:
```
 mysql> show variables like '%increment%'
```
If current value of these variables is anything other than 1, then use the following command to update their values:
```
 mysql> SET @@auto_increment_increment=1;   mysql> SET @@auto_increment_offset=1;  
```
