Migrating Bonita platform AND database version at the same time

Hello,

Newer versions of Bonita need more recent version of the database, so for example if I want to migrate from Bonita 7.7.5 and Postgresql 9.3 to the last version of Bonita, we should also upgrade the database to Postgresql 11.

is there any impact in the order of operations to do, or is it the same?

Is it better (simplified version without backup and other...):

  1. Install the new Bundle 7.11.z

  2. Apply bonita migration tool of engine and bdm schema with postgresql 9

  3. Migrate Postgresql server to 11

Or:

  1. Install the new Bundle 7.11.z

  2. Migrate Postgresql server to 11

  3. Apply bonita migration tool of engine and bdm schema with postgresql 11

Thank you

The procedure for Mysql and Oracle is explained here:

https://documentation.bonitasoft.com/bonita/7.9/migrate-from-an-earlier-version-of-bonita-bpm

Soon also Postgresql will be included in the documentation, but here you are the steps:

  • install the new Bonita bundle and configure without starting

  • stop existing bonita

  • migrate bonita database (using migration tool) to the latest Bonita version supporting postgres 9 (7.8.4)

  • backup the bonita databases

  • migrate postgres from 9 to 11

  • use the migration tool to migrate to the desired Bonita version requiring Postgres 11

  • Start new Bonita Bundle
