Ubuntu - Upgrade RethinkDB - 08 Sep 2015
Upgrading your RethinkDB server is pretty straightforward these days now that you don’t need to migrate your data manually. Here’s a list of commands you’ll need to run:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade rethinkdb
rethinkdb index-rebuild -a authKey
You’ll need to replace authKey
with your database authentication key.
I’d also recommend doing a quick backup in case anything goes wrong with the update. You can do so by running:
rethinkdb dump
