Puppet Upgrading a Puppet server

Hey I want to upgrade puppet server to a latest version. Do i have to upgrade all the puppet packages that i have installed one at a time, Or is there any way that I could do it as a whole?

  • Upgrading the puppetserver package effectively upgrades Puppet Server

  • The puppetserver package, in turn, depends on the puppet-agent package, and your node’s package manager automatically upgrades puppet-agent if the new version of puppetserver requires it.

  • On your Puppet Server node, run the command appropriate to your package installer: 

Yum:

yum update puppetserver

Apt:

apt-get update apt-get install --only-upgrade puppetserver
  • If you pinned Puppet packages to a specific version, remove the pins.

  • For yum packages locked with the versionlock plugin, edit /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/versionlock.list to remove the lock.

  • On apt systems, remove .pref files from /etc/apt/preferences.d/ that pin packages, and use the apt-mark unhold command on each held package.
