Update option | Corresponding ewupdate EWUpdate command-line option | Description |
---|---|---|
Backup database data using OS-level backup | -k,--skiposlevel | This command only applies if the built-in MySQL server is used. Under normal circumstances a full OS-level backup is made. Use this option to skip the default OS-level backup of the MySQL directory. No database restoration is possible if the upgrade fails. |
Skip checkers unless any patchers were run | -p,--scup | When the application server starts, it performs data checks for consistency, which might take a long time. Use this option to skip data checking if no data was changed on update. This can speed the time taken to start the application server. |
Skip project backup if possible | -K,--skipprjbckp | At the very beginning of the update process all existing projects are saved to the backup directory. If this option is set then no project backup is performed, if allowed. Some update modes require a project backup, in which case it isn't skipped. |
Don't delete temporary files after update | -t,--keeptemp | During the update, temporary files are normally stored on the hard drive. These may include data backups, unpacked new code, etc. By default, temporary files are removed after an update. If this option is set, temporary files are left on the device. The temporary files are automatically deleted before the next update. |
Don't backup temporary files - logs etc | -i,--backuptemp | If this option is set then no temporary files such as log files are backed up before the update. This saves used disk space and shortens the update time. |
