IIUC what you say. No. Don't install a clean one and drop it, that will
overwrite existing files and probably just screw up everything.

But what you say makes me think of an intermediate way: you can use the
typical process to move a master to another machine, but then kind of "move
it back".

Roughly:
1. Set up a server with Internet access
2. Stop the old server
3. Copy things from the existing one to the Internet ready one
4.  Upgrade it following the standard docs
5. Move it back (rsync --delete)

Search the list about it. There's been plenty of discussions about it.

BTW makes me think we should create a page about that on jenkins.io (if
there is not already one)

Our Jenkins build server is in a secure (no internet) environment and I'd
like to upgrade it.

Can I install a clean 2.0 with all the plugins (from outside) and then just
zip it up, transfer the archive and extract it over the top of the 1.x
folder structure (except for the jobs/config.xml) along with dropping in a
new .WAR?

Or are there other considerations I need to be aware of?  I haven't found
much relating to the upgrade process for this type of scenario.

Thanks.
