Upgrade Bonita Runtime in production from version 2021.1 to version 2021.2

Q&A
1

Currently my Bonita 2021.1 production environment uses a Postgresql 11 database.

And my questions are the following:

  • To upgrade that environment to Bonita 2021.2 is it necessary to upgrade Postgresql from version 11 to 12?
  • Is there any tool to upgrade Bonita Runtime in production from 2021.1 to 2021.2 or should I do a complete reinstallation?

Hi Alex,

  1. We recommend using Postgres 12.6 and greater. However, it should not be a mandatory step.
  2. Yes, you need to use the migration tool to upgrade your runtime. You download this tool in download ‘Update’ section of the website.

NOTE: Be careful that 2021.2 comes with new Java requirement (Java 11 only). So it is recommended to first validate your current environment with Java 11 (if it is not already the case), before migrating your production.
