Upgrade to Grafana v11.0-preview

Upgrade to Grafana v11.0-preview

We recommend that you upgrade Grafana often to stay current with the latest fixes and enhancements. Because Grafana upgrades are backward compatible, the upgrade process is straightforward, and dashboards and graphs will not change.

In addition to common tasks you should complete for all versions of Grafana, there might be additional upgrade tasks to complete for a version.

Note
There might be breaking changes in some releases. We outline these changes in the What's New document for most releases or a separate Breaking changes document for releases with many breaking changes.

For versions of Grafana prior to v9.2, we published additional information in the Release Notes.

When available, we list all changes with links to pull requests or issues in the Changelog.

Note
When possible, we recommend that you test the Grafana upgrade process in a test or development environment.

Back up Grafana

This topic explains how to back up a local Grafana deployment, including configuration, plugin data, and the Grafana database.

Back up the Grafana configuration file

Copy Grafana configuration files that you might have modified in your Grafana deployment to a backup directory.

The Grafana configuration files are located in the following directories:

复制代码
Default configuration: $WORKING_DIR/defaults.ini (Don't change this file)
Custom configuration: $WORKING_DIR/custom.ini

For more information on where to find configuration files, refer to Configuration file location.

复制代码
Note
If you installed Grafana using the deb or rpm packages, then your configuration file is located at /etc/grafana/grafana.ini. This path is specified in the Grafana init.d script using --config file parameter.

Back up plugin data

Installing plugins in Grafana creates a folder for each plugin with its associated files and data. Copy all files and folders recursively from this location to your backup repository.

The Grafana plugin files are located in the following directories:

复制代码
Default location for plugins in a binary or source installation: $WORKING_DIR/data/plugins
Default location for plugins in a deb or rpm package: /var/lib/grafana/plugins. This path is specified in the Grafana init.d script using --config file parameter.

Back up the Grafana database

We recommend that you back up your Grafana database so that you can roll back to a previous version, if required.

SQLite

The default Grafana database is SQLite, which stores its data in a single file on disk. To back up this file, copy it to your backup repository.

复制代码
Note
To ensure data integrity, shut down your Grafana service before backing up the SQLite database.

The SQLite database file is located in one of the following directories:

复制代码
Default location for SQLite data in a binary or source installation: $WORKING_DIR/data/grafana.db
Default location for SQLite data in a deb or rpm package: /var/lib/grafana/grafana.db. This path is specified in the Grafana init.d script using --config file parameter.

MySQL

To back up or restore a MySQL Grafana database, run the following commands:

bash

backup:

mysqldump -u root -p[root_password] [grafana] > grafana_backup.sql

restore:

mysql -u root -p grafana < grafana_backup.sql

Postgres

To back up or restore a Postgres Grafana database, run the following commands:

bash

backup:

pg_dump grafana > grafana_backup

restore:

psql grafana < grafana_backup
