How to upgrade from 23.03 to 23.08?

[shahidakhter786]

How to upgrade already installed and perfectly running pfelk 23.03 to 23.08?
Elastic+Kibana version 8.8.1
ubuntu 22.04 , used script to install PFELK

Merging with #491

To upgrade only the pfelk files from 20.03 to 20.08 (current). Do the following:

1. Stop logstash

• systemctl stop logstash.service

2. Download updated pfelk files

 wget -q https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pfelk/pfelk/main/etc/pfelk/conf.d/02-firewall.pfelk -P /etc/pfelk/conf.d/
 wget -q https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pfelk/pfelk/main/etc/pfelk/conf.d/05-apps.pfelk -P /etc/pfelk/conf.d/
 wget -q https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pfelk/pfelk/main/etc/pfelk/conf.d/30-geoip.pfelk -P /etc/pfelk/conf.d/
 wget -q https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pfelk/pfelk/main/etc/pfelk/conf.d/49-cleanup.pfelk -P /etc/pfelk/conf.d/

 wget -q https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pfelk/pfelk/main/etc/pfelk/patterns/pfelk.grok -P /etc/pfelk/patterns/

3. Start logstash

• systemctl start logstash.service

@613377 Thanks for sharing these details. what about elastic and kibana which asks for latest versions to import these dashboards?
Moreover, it's not letting me upgrade elastic and kibana to newer version because whenever i try, it says, it's already a newer version.

No worries. i have upgraded those packages now.

@shahidakhter786 - you were able to update Elastic/Kibana/Logstash?

Are importing the dashboards still an issue?

@613377 Everything is working perfectly fine now.
