[Freeipa-users] Upgrade from IPA 4.2

[Andrey Ptashnik]

Hello,

We have Centos 7.2 and IPA 4.2 version.
I remember that in previous versions in order to upgrade to the latest one I had to run IPA upgrade scripts that would separately upgrade LDAP database. Is that the same procedure if I need to upgrade from version 4.2?

Regards,

Andrey

Andrey,

That wasn't my experience. We just did a yum update and it all seemed to
work.

Given it's role, I presume you have or can set up a test env you can try it
on?

Yum upgrade should run upgrade script automatically.

Now we have just one script ipa-server-upgrade

Thank you for hint, Martin!

Looks like upgrade went smooth just with yum upgrade.
Following multi step upgrade in previous versions I was hesitant this time.
