Upgrade Guide to Netify Version 4

Upgrading from Version 3

Upgrading from version 3 to version 4 can be treated as a 'minor release' upgrade.

Step 1 - Perform a Backup

It's never a bad idea to have a fallback set of files just in case things go South.

tar -czvf ~/netify-backup.tar.gz /etc/netifyd.conf /etc/netify.d

Step 2 - Stop the Netify Agent Daemon

Stopping the agent will ensure nothing is being written to or in use that might overlap with the new version.

sudo service netifyd stop

The above command is an example for environments using SystemV. Please take a look at the stop command for your operating system found here.

Step 3 - Install/Upgrade the Netify Version 4 Package

Install Netify Version 4 according to your Operating System/Architecture

Step 4 - Restart the Agent

sudo service netifyd start

The above command is an example of environments using SystemV. Please take a look at the start command for your operating system found here.
