Migration process from 772 to 777

Pandora FMS version 772 with MySQL 5.7 and PHP 8.0 must be installed.

The final versions installed after following these instructions will be Pandora FMS version 777 with MySQL 8 and PHP 8.2.

1. The MySQL upgrade to version 8.0 must be executed.

2. In the Management → Settings → System Settings → System Settings → Historical database menu, disable the connection to the history database.

3. Offline Console Upgrade by OUM up to version 775.

At this point the tool will indicate the need to install PHP version 8.2 to be able to upgrade to Pandora FMS version 776:

4. Upgrading PHP to version 8.2, depending on the operating system installed:

• Rocky Linux 8/AlmaLinux 8/RHEL 8 - Upgrade to PHP 8.2.
• CentOS 7 - Upgrade to PHP 8.2.

5.- Update server package tar.gz 777:

tar xvzf pandorafms_server_enterprise-7.0NG.777_x86_64.tar.gz
cd pandora_server
./pandora_server_installer --upgrade

6.- Restart service:

/etc/init.d/pandora_server restart

Or, if you have systemd installed:

systemctl restart pandora_ha

7.- Re-activate the history database with the same parameters used before the update.

1. Perform MySQL upgrade to version 8.0.

2. Upgrade PHP to version 8.2, depending on the operating system installed:

• Rocky Linux 8/AlmaLinux 8/RHEL 8 - Upgrade to PHP 8.2.
• CentOS 7 - Upgrade to PHP 8.2.

3.- Updating the Console by RPM. The package can be downloaded from the Support website:

rpm -U pandorafms_console_enterprise-7.0NG.777.x86_64.rpm

Note: MR files will be applied in this process.

4.- Update the tar.gz 777 server package:

tar xvzf pandorafms_server_enterprise-7.0NG.777_x86_64.tar.gz
cd pandora_server
./pandora_server_installer --upgrade

5.- Restart PFMS server services.

/etc/init.d/pandora_server restart

Or, if systemd is installed:

systemctl restart pandora_ha

1. Upgrade PHP to version 8.2:

• Upgrading to PHP 8.2 - Ubuntu Server 22.04.

2. Updating the Console by Tarball. The package, in tar.gz format, may be downloaded from the Support website:

pandorafms_console_enterprise-7.0NG.777.tar.gz

3. To update the console, unzip it and the attachment and enterprise folders will be generated, which should be moved to /var/www/html/pandora_console:

tar xzvf pandorafms_console_enterprise-7.0NG.777.tar.gz && cp -R attachment/enterprise/ /var/www/html/pandora_console/

Then, the necessary permissions are set in the Console directory:

chown -R www-data. /var/www/html/pandora_console

php /var/www/html/pandora_console/godmode/um_client/updateMR.php

As an alternative to the previous process, this can be done manually:

Log in to the database:

mysql -u root -p pandora

The next step is to apply the necessary MR files (65.sql, 66.sql, 67.sql, 68.sql y 69.sql):

SOURCE /var/www/html/pandora_console/extras/mr/65.sql;
SOURCE /var/www/html/pandora_console/extras/mr/66.sql;
SOURCE /var/www/html/pandora_console/extras/mr/67.sql;
SOURCE /var/www/html/pandora_console/extras/mr/68.sql;
SOURCE /var/www/html/pandora_console/extras/mr/69.sql;

Finally, the MR fields:

UPDATE tconfig SET VALUE= 69 WHERE token='MR';
exit;

4. Update tar.gz 777 server package:

tar xvzf pandorafms_server_enterprise-7.0NG.777_x86_64.tar.gz
cd pandora_server
./pandora_server_installer --upgrade

5. Restart services:

/etc/init.d/pandora_server restart

Or by means of systemd:

systemctl restart pandora_ha

6. It is recommended to launch the following command to avoid console errors, especially if you are using Ubuntu:

cd /var/www/html/pandora_console/ && cat extras/delete_files/delete_files.txt |
xargs rm -fr
