Upgrading
=========

The Pulp 2.15 beta repository is included in the pulp repo files:
    https://repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/pulp/pulp/fedora-pulp.repo
for fedora 25 & 26
    https://repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/pulp/pulp/rhel-pulp.repo for RHEL 6 & 7

After enabling the pulp-2.15-beta repository, you'll want to follow
the standard upgrade path with migrations:

$ sudo systemctl stop httpd pulp_workers
pulp_resource_manager pulp_celerybeat pulp_streamer goferd
$ sudo yum upgrade
$ sudo -u apache pulp-manage-db
$ sudo systemctl start httpd pulp_workers pulp_resource_manager
pulp_celerybeat pulp_streamer goferd

The pulp_streamer and goferd services should be omitted if those
services are not installed.
