Server With Direct Internet Access
If the server has internet access, then you can run the following command, which will download the latest build and install it (causing GigaFlow service to restart):
/opt/ros/resources/unix/update.sh
Upgrading to PostgreSQL 16.1
The upgrade process to PostgreSQL 16.1 requires to migrate the data in the old cluster version to the new major version. This happens outside the GigaFlow installation and to prevent data loss it is highly recommended to backup the original data. The following command will dump the existing PostgreSQL data to an SQL file that is used to restore the data in case of upgrade failures. In the terminal prompt, run the following command:
pg_dump -E UTF8 --host=127.0.0.1 -U myipfix -f GigaFlowBackup.sql
For GigaFlow 18.19.0.0. and later, run the following script to upgrade to PostgreSQL 16.1:
/opt/ros/resources/unix/ObserverGigaFlow_Upgrade_PG16.sh 11
Note: The old cluster does not need to be deleted. |
Caution: If PostgreSQL 11 is used for GigaFlow and other applications, then do not run the ObserverGigaFlow_Upgrade_PG16.sh script. This will upgrade the old cluster to the newer version and make it unusable with PostgreSQL 11 version.
|
Caution: If GigaFlow is set to connect to a remote PostgreSQL installation, then do not run the ObserverGigaFlow_Upgrade_PG16.sh script.

Server Without Direct Internet Access
If the server has no internet access, then copy the build https://update.viavisolutions.com/latest/ObserverGigaFlowUnixx64.tgz file into the server folder /opt and then run:
tar -vxzf /opt/ObserverGigaFlowUnixx64.tgz -C /
Restart the GigaFlow service.

Install or Updating to Gigaflow 18.16.0.0+ From An Earlier Version
When installing or updating to Gigaflow 18.16.0.0 from any previous version, you should run the following command after the 18.16.0.0 has been installed and then restart the GigaFlow service:
/opt/ros/resources/unix/updatepost.sh
Double Check
To Double check that only 1 copy of GigaFlow is running, run the following command:
ps aux | grep java | grep ROS
You should see a single output similar to below:
root 2158693 3.1 8.6 5022980 686268 ? Sl Feb02 20:43 /opt/java/bin/java -Xms364M -Xmx968M -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true ...........
If you see multiple entries, kill all the process and restart the GigaFlow service.
Restarting The GigaFlow Service
To restart GigaFlow, run the following command:
/opt/ros/resources/unix/restart.sh
