Upgrade a graph store on AWS

How you upgrade depends on how and when you created the ArcGIS Data Store graph store on Amazon Web Services (AWS).

  • You can use manual procedures to upgrade any graph stores running on their own Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) instance or instances. If you created the graph store on its own instance before 11.2, you must use the manual procedures to upgrade.
  • If you included an ArcGIS Knowledge Server site in the deployment you created using the ArcGIS Enterprise Cloud Builder for Amazon Web Services app, a graph store was automatically included with the deployment. When you use the 11.3 Cloud Builder app to upgrade the deployment, the graph store is upgraded along with all the other components.
  • If you created the graph store on its own EC2 instance or instances using the 11.2 Amazon Web Services (AWS) CloudFormation templates provided by Esri, you can use 11.3 CloudFormation templates to upgrade it.

Before you upgrade

No matter which upgrade method you use, review the following information before you upgrade your deployment:

  • Create a backup of the graph store using the backupdatastore utility installed with ArcGIS Data Store. See Manage data store backups for instructions.
  • You must upgrade the ArcGIS GIS Server site (the hosting server) with which the relational data store is registered before you upgrade the relational data store.

Upgrade using manual upgrade procedures

The manual upgrade procedure for ArcGIS Data Store on its own EC2 instance or instances on AWS is similar to upgrading ArcGIS Data Store on-premises. Therefore, follow instructions in the ArcGIS Data Store installation guide to upgrade. Read the instructions specific to the operating system on your EC2 instances:

Upgrade using a CloudFormation template

If you created the graph store on its own EC2 instance or instances using the 11.2 Amazon Web Services (AWS) CloudFormation template provided by Esri, you can use the corresponding 11.3 CloudFormation upgrade template to upgrade it.

The following table lists corresponding deployment and upgrade templates and provides links to instructions for using the upgrade templates.
