Upgrading
|
|
---------
|
|
|
|
From time to time, newer versions of OwnTone may need to perform a database
|
|
upgrade. This upgrade is handled by the server upon startup if required.
|
|
|
|
Before upgrading the server, it is always a good idea to backup your database,
|
|
just in case.
|
|
|
|
The database upgrade procedure is built into the server; there is no external
|
|
upgrade script to run. Depending on the changes done to the database structure,
|
|
the upgrade process will take more or less time and may need some space in /tmp
|
|
for temporary data. The upgrade can also require some more space in the
|
|
directory containing the database file.
|
|
|
|
Before running the new server version, make sure you have done your backups and
|
|
checked your disk space.
|
|
|
|
Some upgrades can also trigger a full rescan to rebuild parts of the database,
|
|
so startup will be a bit slower and more resource-intensive than usual.
