Good day! I am preparing to migrate my existing Sonarqube installation from a RHEL7 server to RHEL8 server. I have found some good information on here in previous posts but was hoping to get some concrete “do” or “do not” steps or guidance. Reasons are that we are on a highly locked down environment and I need to make sure every step is ready before I jump.
We utilize a separate SQL database server and the plan is to re-use the same database. I know the steps are: shutdown old server; install on new server; connect to existing SQL database; sit back and relax.
But, are there any other specifics needed to take into consideration? I don’t have a test/dev environment so this will have to be done on my production server. Any specific java versions need installed or is that included in the installation? What about any plugins I have installed on the old version? Any other gotchas? Thanks!
