Upgrading SGE installations
===========================

It is possible to do a live upgrade an installation of a previous SGE 8
release or a 6.2u5-compatible one, without stopping jobs on the
cluster, but at least ensure you have a configuration backup in case
of problems <http://arc.liv.ac.uk/SGE/howto/backup.html>.  For
upgrading from an older version, see
<http://arc.liv.ac.uk/SGE/howto/install62patch.txt>.  From Oracle OGE
6.2u6 or 6.2u7, or Univa UGE 8.1+, a re-installation will be required.

* Stop the execds (qconf -ke).

* Install the new binaries.  With an RPM- or dpkg-packaged version,
  install all the packages with rpm/yum or dpkg/apt-get, as
  appropriate, satisfying any necessary dependencies.  To upgrade the
  grid engine version in Rocks the notes at
  <https://wiki.rocksclusters.org/wiki/index.php/FAQ#Administration>
  may help.

  Otherwise, you want to avoid just copying the new binaries over the
  old ones.  If you have built from source, source/scripts/distinst
  can use install(1), and does automatically on GNU/Linux, so
  something like this can be used (in the build directory, and
  assuming a shared installation):

    scripts/distinst -local -allall

* Re-start the qmaster, e.g.
    /etc/init.d/sgeqmaster restart

* Re-start the execds, e.g.
    pdsh ... /etc/init.d/sgeexecd start
