Post-upgrade tasks

After you upgrade your Pentaho products to version 9.3, you may need to perform a few of the following optional tasks depending on your Pentaho configuration.

• Apply customizations

  If you previously customized any items from the default Pentaho setup, you may have to merge your customizations into Pentaho 9.3 versions of those items.

• Update the default documentation version link

  If you link to specific documentation articles in your Pentaho configuration, you need to 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

  If you want to encrypt passwords currently stored as plain text in configuration files, you must set up your upgraded 9.3 Pentaho Server for password encryption.
