:::important
This documentation page applies to deploying your own open source ClearML Server. It does not apply to ClearML Hosted Service users.

:::note 
For upgrade purposes, the terms **Trains Server** and **ClearML Server** are interchangeable.  
:::
 
The sections below contain the steps to upgrade **ClearML Server** on the [same AWS instance](#upgrading-on-the-same-aws-instance), and 
to upgrade and migrate to a [new AWS instance](#upgrading-and-migrating-to-a-new-aws-instance).

### Upgrading on the Same AWS Instance

This section contains the steps to upgrade **ClearML Server** on the same AWS instance.

:::warning
Some legacy **Trains Server** AMIs provided an auto-upgrade on restart capability. This functionality is now deprecated.
:::

**To upgrade your ClearML Server AWS AMI:**

1. Shutdown the **ClearML Server** executing the following command (which assumes the configuration file is in the environment path). 
    
        docker-compose -f /opt/clearml/docker-compose.yml down

   If you are upgrading from **Trains Server**, use this command:

        docker-compose -f /opt/trains/docker-compose.yml down

1. We recommend [backing up your data](clearml_server_aws_ec2_ami.md#backing-up-and-restoring-data-and-configuration) and, 
   if your configuration folder is not empty, backing up your configuration.

1. If upgrading from **Trains Server** version 0.15 or older, a data migration is required before upgrading, 
   First follow these [data migration instructions](clearml_server_es7_migration.md), and then continue this upgrade.

1. If upgrading from **Trains Server** to **ClearML Server**, rename `/opt/trains` to `/opt/clearml`.

1. Download the latest `docker-compose.yml` file. Execute the following command:

        sudo curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/allegroai/clearml-server/master/docker/docker-compose.yml -o /opt/clearml/docker-compose.yml
        
1. Startup **ClearML Server**. This automatically pulls the latest **ClearML Server** build.

        docker-compose -f /opt/clearml/docker-compose.yml pull
        docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml up -d

### Upgrading and Migrating to a New AWS Instance

This section contains the steps to upgrade **ClearML Server** on the new AWS instance.

**To migrate and to upgrade your ClearML Server AWS AMI:**

1. Shutdown **ClearML Server**. Executing the following command (which assumes the configuration file is in the environment path).

        docker-compose down

1. On the old AWS instance, [backup your data](clearml_server_aws_ec2_ami.md#backing-up-and-restoring-data-and-configuration) 
   and, if your configuration folder is not empty, backup your configuration.

1. If upgrading from **Trains Server** version 0.15 or older, a data migration is required before upgrading. First follow 
   these [data migration instructions](clearml_server_es7_migration.md), and then continue this upgrade.

1. On the new AWS instance, [restore your data](clearml_server_aws_ec2_ami.md#backing-up-and-restoring-data-and-configuration) and, if the configuration folder is not empty, restore the 
   configuration.

1. Startup **ClearML Server**. This automatically pulls the latest **ClearML Server** build.

        docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml pull
        docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml up -d
