----------------------------------
Summary: Documentation insufficient for updates of existing
Artemis installation
Key: ARTEMIS-2999
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARTEMIS-2999
Project: ActiveMQ Artemis
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 2.16.0
Reporter: arne anka
Apparently the only bit of information regarding updates of an existing Artemis
installation is the "Versions" section of the user manual.
But even with 2.16.0 it ends with 2.14 and the instructions for 2.14 are less
than helpful:
"Make sure the existing queues have their parameters set according to the
{{broker.xml}} values before upgrading."
* What parameters exactly?
* How exactly _DO_ I update? Unpack the new archive and copy $INSTANCE over?
* $INSTANCE/bin/ scripts are generated during instance creation – are they
still valid? Do I need to change anything?
Since the documentation in general is little user friendly for users that do
not work full time with Artemis, I had a hard time setting up Artemis initially
with the existing documentation (and judging from my research back then I am
far from being alone), and I certainly don't want to jeopardize it now due to a
lack of useful directions.
Would it be possible to revisit this and documentation in general keeping in
mind that also users outside of the Artemis community may want to use this?
