# Updating the Geo nodes **(PREMIUM ONLY)**
|
|
|
|
WARNING:
|
|
Read these sections carefully before updating your Geo nodes. Not following
|
|
version-specific update steps may result in unexpected downtime. If you have
|
|
any specific questions, [contact Support](https://about.gitlab.com/support/#contact-support).
|
|
|
|
Updating Geo nodes involves performing:
|
|
|
|
1. [Version-specific update steps](version_specific_updates.md), depending on the
|
|
version being updated to or from.
|
|
1. [General update steps](#general-update-steps), for all updates.
|
|
|
|
## General update steps
|
|
|
|
NOTE:
|
|
These general update steps are not intended for [high-availability deployments](https://docs.gitlab.com/omnibus/update/README.html#multi-node--ha-deployment), and will cause downtime. If you want to avoid downtime, consider using [zero downtime updates](https://docs.gitlab.com/omnibus/update/README.html#zero-downtime-updates).
|
|
|
|
To update the Geo nodes when a new GitLab version is released, update **primary**
|
|
and all **secondary** nodes:
|
|
|
|
1. **Optional:** [Pause replication on each **secondary** node.](../index.md#pausing-and-resuming-replication)
|
|
1. Log into the **primary** node.
|
|
1. [Update GitLab on the **primary** node using Omnibus's Geo-specific steps](https://docs.gitlab.com/omnibus/update/README.html#geo-deployment).
|
|
1. Log into each **secondary** node.
|
|
1. [Update GitLab on each **secondary** node using Omnibus's Geo-specific steps](https://docs.gitlab.com/omnibus/update/README.html#geo-deployment).
|
|
1. If you paused replication in step 1, [resume replication on each **secondary**](../index.md#pausing-and-resuming-replication)
|
|
1. [Test](#check-status-after-updating) **primary** and **secondary** nodes, and check version in each.
|
|
|
|
### Check status after updating
|
|
|
|
Now that the update process is complete, you may want to check whether
|
|
everything is working correctly:
|
|
|
|
1. Run the Geo Rake task on all nodes, everything should be green:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
sudo gitlab-rake gitlab:geo:check
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
1. Check the **primary** node's Geo dashboard for any errors.
|
|
1. Test the data replication by pushing code to the **primary** node and see if it
|
|
is received by **secondary** nodes.
|
|
|
|
If you encounter any issues, see the [Geo troubleshooting guide](troubleshooting.md).
