title: Upgrade guide common tasks
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
We recommend that you upgrade Grafana often to stay current with the latest fixes and enhancements.
|
||||
Because Grafana upgrades are backward compatible, the upgrade process is straightforward, and dashboards and graphs will not change.
|
||||
|
||||
In addition to common tasks you should complete for all versions of Grafana, there might be additional upgrade tasks to complete for a version.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Note:** There might be minor breaking changes in some releases. We outline these changes in the [What's New ]({{< relref "../../whatsnew/" >}}) document for each release.
|
||||
|
||||
For versions of Grafana prior to v9.2, we published additional information in the [Release Notes]({{< relref "../../release-notes/" >}}).
|
||||
|
||||
When available, we list all changes with links to pull requests or issues in the [Changelog](https://github.com/grafana/grafana/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md).
|
||||
|
||||
> **Note:** When possible, we recommend that you test the Grafana upgrade process in a test or development environment.
|
||||
|
||||
## Back up the Grafana database
|
||||
|
||||
Although Grafana automatically upgrades the database on startup, we recommend that you back up your Grafana database so that you can roll back to a previous version, if required.
|
||||
|
||||
### SQLite
|
||||
|
||||
If you use SQLite, you only need to back up the `grafana.db` file. On Unix systems, the database file is usually located in `/var/lib/grafana/`.
|
||||
|
||||
If you are unsure which database you use and where it is stored, check the Grafana configuration file. If you
|
||||
installed Grafana to a custom location using a binary tar/zip, the database is usually located in `<grafana_install_dir>/data`.
|
||||
|
||||
### MySQL
|
||||
|
||||
To back up or restore a MySQL Grafana database, run the following commands:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
backup:
|
||||
> mysqldump -u root -p[root_password] [grafana] > grafana_backup.sql
|
||||
|
||||
restore:
|
||||
> mysql -u root -p grafana < grafana_backup.sql
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Postgres
|
||||
|
||||
To back up or restore a Postgres Grafana database, run the following commands:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
backup:
|
||||
> pg_dump grafana > grafana_backup
|
||||
|
||||
restore:
|
||||
> psql grafana < grafana_backup
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Backup plugins
|
||||
|
||||
We recommend that you back up installed plugins before you upgrade Grafana so that you can roll back to a previous version of Grafana, if necessary.
|
||||
|
||||
## Upgrade Grafana
|
||||
|
||||
The following sections provide instructions for how to upgrade Grafana based on your installation method.
|
||||
|
||||
### Debian
|
||||
|
||||
To upgrade Grafana installed from a Debian package (`.deb`), complete the following steps:
|
||||
|
||||
1. In your current installation of Grafana, save your custom configuration changes to a file named `<grafana_install_dir>/conf/custom.ini`.
|
||||
|
||||
This enables you to upgrade Grafana without the risk of losing your configuration changes.
|
||||
|
||||
1. [Download](https://grafana.com/grafana/download?platform=linux) the latest version of Grafana.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Run the following `dpkg -i` command.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
wget <debian package url>
|
||||
sudo apt-get install -y adduser
|
||||
sudo dpkg -i grafana_<version>_amd64.deb
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
