Post-upgrade tasks

After you upgrade your Pentaho products to version 10.2, consider whether you should perform any of the following optional tasks depending on your Pentaho configuration.

• Apply customizations

  If you previously customized items from the default Pentaho setup, you might want to merge your customizations into Pentaho 10.2 versions of those items.

• Update the default documentation version link

  If you link to specific documentation articles in your Pentaho configuration, update the default documentation version in those links.

• Install Ops Mart

  If you are interested in a centralized data mart for your PDI job or PDI transformation logs, you can install DI Ops Mart.

• Install drivers for your Hadoop clusters

  If you use Hadoop clusters with your Pentaho products, you must re-install the drivers.

• Apply your plugins

  If you use plugins with your Pentaho products, you must re-apply the plugins.

• Set up password encryption after upgrading

  To encrypt passwords currently stored as plain text in configuration files, you must set up your upgraded 10.2 Pentaho Server for password encryption.
