How to upgrade a client on Linux

You need to uninstall the older Qube! components, and then install the newer ones. No data is lost during the uninstall/re-install.

Uninstalling the Qube! Client and UI​

The only condition is that the Qube-core is uninstalled last. You can uninstall all other Qube! components in any order.

The most common order is

  • uninstall the QubeUI (if installed)
  • uninstall the Qube-core

Uninstalling with a single command-line:​

The Qube! rpm's have the dependencies between the supervisor, core, qubeui, etc. already defined, so all components can be uninstalled with a single rpm command line:

rpm -ev `rpm -qa|grep qube

Installing the Qube! Client and UI​

The only condition is that the Qube-core is installed first. You can install all other Qube! components in any order.

The most common order is:

  • install the Qube-core
  • install the QubeUI

Installing with the rpm utility:​

The Qube! rpm's have the dependencies between the supervisor, core, qubeui, etc. already defined, so all components can be installed either individually, or with a single rpm command line:

rpm -ivh qube-core-<qube_version>-<linux_version>.rpm

rpm -ivh QubeUI-<qube_version>-<linux_version>.rpm

or

rpm -ivh qube-core-<qube_version>-<linux_version>.rpm QubeUI-<qube_version>-<linux_version>.rpm
