Upgrading

Upgrading the Build Cloud too? Check out our upgrade procedure for the Anka Build Cloud Controller & Registry

Pre-upgrade Considerations

Upgrade Procedure

1. Download and install the latest version

2. Upgrade VM addons

If your existing version is noted in the Pre-Upgrade Considerations as requiring an addons upgrade, or, if you’re going between major/minor versions of Anka:

1. Upgrade the guest addons inside existing VM templates with anka start -vu. This opens the VM desktop in a viewer window and allows you to manually launch and install the addons package.
2. Push the newly upgraded VM templates to registry with anka registry push {vmNameOrUUID} --tag <newTag>
