Install/Update/Removal

Install

WWSK is installed by simply unzipping a platform specific distribution to a folder on a target computer.

Removal

WWSK is removed by simply deleting the folder in which it was installed. If a wwsk.service has been created (Linux), it should be stopped, disabled and removed.

Update

The recommended practice for updating WWSK is to:

  1. Install a new version of WWSK alongside an older version,
  2. (Optionally) copy/move data and workspaces from the old version to the new version,
  3. Remove the old version.

Updating WWSK by unzipping a distribution into an existing WWSK instance has not been tested and is not recommended.
