Qlik Sense - Upgrade from May2021 to Feb2024 - Qlik Community

federicotedesco · ‎2024-02-22

Hi everyone,

i will have to upgrade a Qlik Sense from version May2021 to Feb2024.

The postgres version is 12.X.

Can i run the target version or it is better to install an intermediate version?

Exist a procedure or a guide to understand if necessary install an intermediete version before the target version?

Thanks in advanced

Regards

Federico

Look at this link to plan the upgrade. Centralized logging will be disabled and there are special considerations to upgrade the postgresql version. These considerations depend on whether you are using the postgres that gets installed by Qlik Sense, or whether you are using a 3rd party copy of postgresql. Hopefully its clear. Feel free to ask follow-up questions. https://help.qlik.com/en-US/sense-admin/February2024/Subsystems/DeployAdministerQSE/Content/Sense_De... There is also a system reqs for the latest Qlik Sense here you should check your compliant with. https://help.qlik.com/en-US/sense-admin/February2024/Subsystems/DeployAdministerQSE/Content/Sense_De... Backups are always recommended prior to upgrades. https://help.qlik.com/en-US/sense-admin/February2024/Subsystems/DeployAdministerQSE/Content/Sense_De... or you could just stop the services and take a snapshot of the VMs.

@federicotedesco great advise (as always) from Johnny!

It seems best to use the PQI to unbundle (and upgrade) PostgreSQL:
