Back up data from Marketplace instance

Before you begin, you should back up your current Marketplace instance.

1. SSH to your current Marketplace instance. For more information, see Install from AWS Marketplace.

2. Stop the 

   D s platform

    on your current Marketplace instance:

   Code Block
   sudo service trifacta stop

3. Update the backup script with a more current version:
   

   1. Download the backup script from the following location:

      Code Block
      https://raw.githubusercontent.com/trifacta/trifacta-utils/release/5.0/trifacta-backup-config-and-db.sh

   2. Example command to download the script:

      Code Block
      curl --output trifacta-backup-config-and-db.sh https://raw.githubusercontent.com/trifacta/trifacta-utils/release/5.0/trifacta-backup-config-and-db.sh

   3. Overwrite the downloaded script to the following location:

      Code Block
      /opt/trifacta/bin/setup-utils/trifacta-backup-config-and-db.sh

   4. Verify that this script is executable:

      Code Block
      sudo chmod 775 /opt/trifacta/bin/setup-utils/trifacta-backup-config-and-db.sh

4. Run the backup script:

   Code Block
   sudo /opt/trifacta/bin/setup-utils/trifacta-backup-config-and-db.sh

    

   1. When the script is complete, the output identifies the location of the backup. Example:

      Code Block
      /opt/trifacta-backups/trifacta-backup-5.0+126.20171217124021.a8ed455-20180514213601.tgz

5. Store the backup in a safe location. If needed, you can store this backup in the S3 bucket used by the platform. Example:

   Code Block
   aws s3 cp /opt/trifacta-backups/trifacta-backup-5.0+126.20171217124021.a8ed455-20180514213601.tgz s3://<my-trifacta-s3-bucket>/trifacta-backups/

Spin up upgraded Marketplace instance and restore data

In this section, you spin up the upgraded instance and then restore the data that you have backed up into the instance.

Steps:

1. Spin up the new instance of

   D s product
   product edgeawsm

   from  from the AWS Marketplace.

   Info

   NOTE: For upgrading the product, the new instance must be installed directly through EC2. You cannot install the new version using the CloudFormation template, which overwrites your security roles and policies. If possible, this new instance should be in the same VPC as the old instance. If this new instance is in a different VPC than your current instance, you must ensure that both VPCs can tunnel to each other. The new instance also must have access to the S3 bucket where you are storing your backup from the old instance.

   
   For more information on installation, see Install from AWS Marketplace.

2. Verify that the instance has successfully started. If you can connect to the login page, the platform has started.
3. SSH to the new AWS Marketplace instance. See Install from AWS Marketplace.

4. Stop the 

   D s platform

    on the instance:

   Code Block
   sudo service trifacta stop

5. Set up restore script:

   1. The restore script is in the following location:

      Code Block
      /opt/trifacta/bin/setup-utils/trifacta-restore-from-backup.sh

   2. Verify that it is executable:

      Code Block
      sudo chmod 775 /opt/trifacta/bin/setup-utils/trifacta-restore-from-backup.sh

6. Download the backup from your storage location and extract its contents. Example:

   Code Block
   sudo mkdir -p /root/trifacta-restore-files sudo cd /root/trifacta-restore-files sudo aws s3 cp s3://<my-trifacta-s3-bucket>/trifacta-backups/trifacta-backup-5.0+126.20171217124021.a8ed455-20180514213601.tgz . sudo tar xzf trifacta-backup-5.0+126.20171217124021.a8ed455-20180514213601.tgz

7. The backup contents should be located in a directory with a path similar to the following:

   Code Block
   /root/trifacta-restore-files/trifacta-backup-5.0+126.20171217124021.a8ed455-20180514213601

8. Execute the restore script. Pass in the path to your unzipped backup as a parameter. Example:

   Code Block
   sudo /opt/trifacta/bin/setup-utils/trifacta-restore-from-backup.sh -r /root/trifacta-restore-files/trifacta-backup-5.1+126.20171217124021.a8ed455-20180514213601

9. The backup is restored into your new installation.

Verify 

The upgrade is complete. To verify:

Steps:

1. Restart the platform:

   Code Block
   sudo service trifacta start

2. Run a simple job. It can have a single step in the recipe. 

   Info
   NOTE: Please verify that profiling is enabled. If the job fails with profiling, retry it without profiling, which may assist in troubleshooting any issues.

3. Verify that the job has successfully completed.
