Lotus Installation and Testing ExperiencesThose who have implemented it, already
  • Ingolf has problems with upgrading from Kiwi to Lotus with Okapi deployment on a single server
    • Ingolf: install endpoint of Okapi fails several times, also failed in previous flower release upgrades
    • (Jason) Don't upgrade with loadReference=true, always use loadReference=false there
    • update on a test server first, not with real data
    • Jason: I create a new tenant (on an existing cluster) to test the deployment of a new flower release
    • reference data needed in addition by the new (or modified) modules should be loaded after the fact
  • Florian G.: Might need to change timeouts of nginx
  • Nils: 40 GB RAM could be a problem
  • ---------------------------------------------------------
