This document describes the steps required for upgrading a Security Server cluster from Ubuntu 18.04 LTSĀ to Ubuntu 20.04 LTS in-place. Please read carefully through the whole document before starting the upgrade process. It is assumed that the reader is familiar with the Ubuntu Linux distribution and has experience of Ubuntu release upgrades.
Upgrading a system that uses a hardware security module has not been tested. Please verify that the HSM is compatible with Ubuntu 20.04 andĀ check the HSM module documentation.
The upgrade process is based on
with some additional steps due to PostgreSQL database version upgrade from 10 to 12. Please review both documents before continuing.
At the "Upgrade the database" step, upgrade both database clusters* (main and serverconf) to version 12
(*) a PostgreSQL "cluster" is a collection of databases served by one postgres instance, should not be confused with a security server cluster
$ sudo pg_lsclusters Ver Cluster Port Status Owner Data directory Log file 10 main 5432 online postgres /var/lib/postgresql/10/main /var/log/postgresql/postgresql-10-main.log 10 serverconf 5433 online postgres /var/lib/postgresql/10/serverconf /var/log/postgresql/postgresql-10-serverconf.log 12 main 5434 online postgres /var/lib/postgresql/12/main /var/log/postgresql/postgresql-12-main.log $ sudo pg_dropcluster --stop 12 main $ sudo pg_upgradecluster --method=upgrade --link 10 main $ sudo pg_upgradecluster --method=upgrade --link 10 serverconf |
After successfully upgrading the master, slave nodes can be upgraded one by one.
(Alternatively, install new Ubuntu 20.04 slave node(s) as described in [1])
/var/lib/postgresql/10/serverconf/recovery.conf
e.g sudo cp /var/lib/postgresql/10/serverconf/recovery.conf /tmp/
Upgrade only the 10 main database and drop the other databases (including serverconf)
Since the serverconf database is small, dropping and recreating it a straightforward option. |
$ sudo pg_lsclusters Ver Cluster Port Status Owner Data directory Log file 10 main 5432 online postgres /var/lib/postgresql/10/main /var/log/postgresql/postgresql-10-main.log 10 serverconf 5433 online postgres /var/lib/postgresql/10/serverconf /var/log/postgresql/postgresql-10-serverconf.log 12 main 5434 online postgres /var/lib/postgresql/12/main /var/log/postgresql/postgresql-12-main.log $ sudo pg_dropcluster --stop 12 main $ sudo pg_upgradecluster --method=upgrade --link 10 main |
Recreate the serverconf database
sudo pg_dropcluster --stop 10 serverconf sudo pg_createcluster -p 5433 12 serverconf |
Follow the instructions in configuring the slave instance for replication in [1] to set up the database replication.
Note that you can find the <master> and <nodename> information in the backed up recovery.conf -file, but the replication configuration is a bit different on PostgreSQL 12.
Update the X-Road package repository to point to the Ubuntu 20.04 packages
sudo apt-add-repository -r "deb https://artifactory.niis.org/xroad-release-deb bionic-current main" sudo apt-add-repository "deb https://artifactory.niis.org/xroad-release-deb focal-current main" |
(alternatively, edit /etc/apt/sources.list directly)
Make sure that the database replication is up to date. The following should return t
:
$ sudo -iu postgres psql -p 5433 -tc 'select pg_last_wal_replay_lsn() = pg_last_wal_receive_lsn()' t |
Upgrade the packages on the slave node to the Ubuntu 20.04 version.sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade
Enable the shared configuration synchronization on the slave node:
sudo rm /var/tmp/xroad/sync-disabled
service xroad-sync start
restart the X-Road services and wait until the slave node is healthy.
