=======================
Parsec Server migration
=======================

This guide covers the migration procedure for the `Parsec`_ server (also called `parsec-backend`).

.. note::

We consider that you are using the same infrastructure configuration as in the :ref:`Parsec Server installation guide <doc_adminguide_hosting>`.
Adapt this guide to your own situation.

.. _Parsec: https://parsec.cloud

Updating to a newer version
***************************

.. warning::

Before updating to a newer version, make sure to back up the database,
in case you need to roll back the update.

In this guide, we will migrate ``parsec-backend`` from version ``v2.15.0`` to ``v2.16.0``.

.. _update_docker_image_tag:

1. Update the ``parsec-backend``'s docker image tag of in docker-compose file (``parsec-server.docker.yaml``):

.. code-block:: yaml
:linenos:
:emphasize-lines: 5
services:
# ...
parsec-backend:
image: ghcr.io/scille/parsec-cloud/parsec-backend-server:v2.15.0
# ...
You need to change the used tag (at line **5**) to ``v2.16.0``.

2. List the pending migrations to be applied:

.. code-block:: bash
docker compose -f parsec-server.docker.yaml run parsec-backend migrate --dry-run
The output should look like this:

.. code-block::
0001_initial.sql (already applied)
0002_add_migration_table.sql (already applied)
0003_human_handle.sql (already applied)
0004_invite.sql (already applied)
0005_redacted_certificates.sql (already applied)
0006_outsider_enabled.sql (already applied)
0007_users_limit.sql (already applied)
0008_apiv1_removal.sql (already applied)
0009_add_realm_user_change_table.sql (already applied)
0010_add_pki_certificate_table.sql (already applied)
0011_add_sequester_tables.sql (already applied)
0012_add_sequester_webhook.sql (already applied)
0013_add_shamir_recovery.sql ✔
0014_add_realm_archiving.sql ✔
.. note::

This output is provided as an example. Don't expect it to match your output.

The lines ending with ``already applied`` are migrations already present on the database
whereas the one ending with ```` are migrations to be applied.

3. Apply the database migration:

.. code-block:: bash
docker compose -f parsec-server.docker.yaml run parsec-backend migrate
.. _restart_parsec_backend_container:

4. Restart the ``parsec-backend`` container:

.. code-block:: bash
docker compose -f parsec-server.docker.yaml restart parsec-backend
Rollback to a previous version
******************************

.. warning::

Rollback is currently limited in Parsec.
The only possible way to rollback is to use the previous database backup.
So you will lose the delta of backup vs current database.

To roll back to a previous version, let's say we want to downgrade ``parsec-backend`` from version ``v2.16.0`` to ``v2.15.0``.

1. Downgrade the ``parsec-backend``'s docker image tag in the docker-compose file (``parsec-server.docker.yaml``).
Like in :ref:`Update the parsec-backend tag <update_docker_image_tag>` change the tag ``v2.16.0`` to ``v2.15.0``.

2. Replace the current database with the backup on the Postgres database.

3. :ref:`Restart the parsec-backend container<restart_parsec_backend_container>`
