When you upgrade Plesk operating in Virtuozzo containers for Linux, please note the following:
postfix
or qmail
templates, be sure to install a pp12-dovecot
or a pp12-courier-imap
template during upgrade. Otherwise, IMAP/POP3 server might be unavailable. To upgrade Plesk installed with versioned EZ templates in Virtuozzo containers environment:
vzup2date -m batch -z install <list of templates>
Note: On Virtuozzo, the vzup2date utility is deprecated. You should use yum
instead.
For more information about shipped templates, refer to the section Linux Virtuozzo Templates.
To learn what Plesk templates are currently installed on the server, run vzpkg list
and find the ones with names starting with pp
.
vzpkg install <CTID> <list of templates>
Where <CTID> is the ID of the container on which you install the templates and <list of templates> lists templates upgraded or installed during step 1.
For example:
vzpkg install 444 pp12 pp12-kav
Note: Mail server templates pp12-qmail
and pp12-postfix
must not be installed at the same time.
Important: We strongly recommend that you add the new template pp12-bind
after installing new versions of templates that were already installed. Otherwise, all new Plesk containters deployed on this hardware node will not have the DNS server installed. To learn more about how Plesk works without a DNS server, refer to the Administrator's Guide, section Plesk Without a DNS Server.
vzpkg remove <CTID> <list of old templates>
For example:
vzpkg remove 444 pp10 pp10-kav
To upgrade Plesk installed with version-free EZ templates in Virtuozzo environment:
vzup2date -m batch -z install <list of templates>
Note: On Virtuozzo, the vzup2date utility is deprecated. You should use yum
instead.
For more information about shipped templates, refer to the section Linux Virtuozzo Templates.
To learn what Plesk templates are currently installed on the server, run vzpkg list
and find the ones with names starting with pp
.
vzpkg install -f <CTID> <container's list of templates>
vzpkg update <CTID>
Where <CTID> is the ID of the container on which you install the templates and <container's list of templates> is a consistent list of all templates installed on the container as well as new templates that you want to install on it during the upgrade.
For example:
vzpkg install -f 444 pp pp-kav
Note: Mail server templates pp-qmail
and pp-postfix
must not be installed at the same time.
Important: We strongly recommend that you add the new template pp-bind
after installing new versions of templates that were already installed. Otherwise, all new Plesk containters deployed on this hardware node will not have the DNS server installed. To learn more about how Plesk works without a DNS server, refer to the Administrator's Guide, section Plesk Without a DNS Server.
