4. Deploy the new version of Web Services and Applications.
5. Migrate from standalone to embedded Jetty.
6. Adjust the updateOnStartup option in the application.yaml. See Web Services and Applications deployment update.

   • If you are using Cassandra 2.x:
     1. Copy the cf-schema-8.5.201.68.cql and cf-schema-8.5.201.79.cql files from /installation_path/gws/data/updates to the Cassandra node host.
     2. Run the following commands:

        cqlsh cassandra_host --file cf-schema-8.5.201.68.cql
        cqlsh cassandra_host --file cf-schema-8.5.201.79.cql

   • If you are using Cassandra 1.2:
     1. Copy the cf-schema-8.5.201.68.txt and cf-schema-8.5.201.79.txt files from /installation_path/gws/data/updates to the Cassandra node host.
     2. Run the following commands:

cassandra_install_dir/bin/cassandra-cli -h cassandra_host --file cf-schema-8.5.201.68.txt
cassandra_install_dir/bin/cassandra-cli -h cassandra_host --file cf-schema-8.5.201.79.txt

1. Start Web Services and Applications according to Starting and testing.
2. After all Web Services and Applications nodes are upgraded and started, update ElasticSearch:
   • If you use embedded Elasticsearch, run the following script on one Web Services and Applications node:

     /installation_path/gws/tools/rebuild-es-index.sh

   • If you use standalone Elasticsearch:
     1. Copy files from the /installation_path/gws/elasticsearch/templates folder to the templates folder on each Elasticsearch node.
     2. Run the following script on one Web Services and Applications node:

        /installation_path/gws/tools/rebuild-es-index.sh
