To upgrade Rancher Server 2.x after a new version is released, create a backup of your server and then run the upgrade command.
To upgrade Rancher Server 2.x when a new version is released, create a data backup for your current Rancher deployment, pull the latest image of Rancher, and then start a new Rancher container using your data backup.

1. Stop the container currently running Rancher Server. Replace `<RANCHER_CONTAINER_ID>` with the ID of your Rancher container.
1. Using a remote Terminal connection, log into your Rancher Server.
1. Stop the container currently running Rancher Server. Replace `<RANCHER_CONTAINER_NAME>` with the name of your Rancher container.
```
docker stop <RANCHER_CONTAINER_ID>

- Replace `<RANCHER_CONTAINER_TAG>` with tag of your Rancher image (`v2.0.5` in our example).

1. Create a container of your current Rancher data for use in your upgraded Rancher Server. Name the container `rancher-data`.
- Replace `<RANCHER_CONTAINER_ID>` with the same ID from the previous step.
- Replace `<RANCHER_CONTAINER_TAG>` with the version of Rancher that you are currently running, as mentioned in the **Prerequisite** above.
This tarball will serve as a rollback point if something goes wrong during upgrade.
