Upgrading Universal Data Mover Gateway

Upgrading UDMG refers to the increase of a currently installed pre-1.4.x Version, Release, or Modification level of UDMG (1.3.x, 1.2.x, 1.1.x, 1.0.x) to UDMG 1.4.x.

Note
titleNote

If you are upgrading an installation of UDMG from any release prior to 1.3.0.0, you must uninstall the older version before installing the new version.
The binaries, services, configuration parameters, and environment variables have changed and this does not allow for a standard upgrade.


CategoryPrior releasesRelease 1.3
UDMG Admin UI assetsC:\UDMG\nginx\mftC:\UDMG\nginx\udmg
Environment variables
  • WAARP_GATEWAY_ADDRESS
  • MFT_AUTH_PROXY_CONFIG
  • MFT_AGENT_PROXY_CONFIG
  • UDMG_SERVER_ADDRESS
  • UDMG_AUTH_PROXY_CONFIG
  • UDMG_AGENT_CONFIG

It may be required to modify the work and data directories ownership or access rights and to update UDMG Server transfer rules to use new paths.

The configuration files must be reviewed and compared between the old and new versions.

Special attention is required for the AESpassphrase parameter for UDMG Server. It must be the path for the file that was used by the previous release and must be accessible by the new service user. It is recommended to set an absolute path in the configuration file.

Pre-Installation / Upgrade Backups

Make sure to have a backup of the configuration files as it will optimize the time it takes you to get up and running after upgrading.

The UDMG release version is stored in the database to ensure the data structure is compatible with the version of the UDMG components.

...

Step 1

Contact your Stonebranch representative or the Customer Support to receive the software binaries.

Step 2

Perform the recommended backup of configuration files.

Step 3

Stop the components services.

The exact steps depend on the system architecture and the deployed components, for example:


C:\UDMG\nginx>nginx-service.exe stop
C:\UDMG\UDMG Auth Proxy\udmg-auth-proxy-service.exe stop
C:\UDMG\UDMG Server\udmg-server-service.exe stop
C:\UDMG\UDMG Agent\client\udmg-agent-proxy-client-service.exe stop
C:\UDMG\UDMG Agent\agent\udmg-agent-proxy-server-service.exe stop

Step 4

Upgrade the UDMG component binaries by copying the release files to their target location:

sudo cp udmg-server.bin /opt/udmg/bin/udmg-server
sudo cp udmg-client.bin /opt/udmg/bin/udmg-client
sudo cp udmg-auth-proxy.bin /opt/udmg/bin/udmg-auth-proxy
sudo cp udmg-web-transfer.bin /opt/udmg/bin/udmg-web-transfer


Upgrade the UDMG Admin UI:

mv /opt/udmg/var/www/udmg /opt/udmg/var/www/udmg_BACKUP
unzip -d /opt/udmg/var/www/udmg/ 'udmg-admin-ui-1.4.0.0 build.6.zip'
chown  -R root:udmg /opt/udmg/var/www/udmg

Step 5

Review the component configuration files.
Refer to each component installation section below for the list of parameters.
C:\UDMG\UDMG Server\server.ini
C:\UDMG\UDMG Auth Proxy\config.toml
C:\UDMG\UDMG Agent\agent\agent.toml
C:\UDMG\UDMG Agent\client\client.toml

Step 6Perform the release migration.
Step 7

Start the components services.

The exact steps depend on the system architecture and the deployed components, for example:

C:\UDMG\UDMG Server\udmg-server-service.exe start
C:\UDMG\UDMG Auth Proxy\\udmg-auth-proxy-service.exe start
C:\UDMG\nginx>nginx-service.exe start
C:\UDMG\UDMG Agent\client\udmg-agent-proxy-client-service.exe start
C:\UDMG\UDMG Agent\agent\udmg-agent-proxy-server-service.exe start
