[Xymon] Proper method to upgrade

[Galen Johnson]

I just recompile and re-run 'make install'.  Never had an issue.  Of course, I don't typically tweak any of the non-config files so if you've modified those, you may need to revisit those changes but I've never had it clobber my cfg files in etc.

Subject: [Xymon] Proper method to upgrade

I have Xymon 4.3.11<http://xymon.sourceforge.net/> installed and would like to move to 4.3.15, but I do not see any upgrade doc.
What is the proper method to do an upgrade from source ?

Do I uninstall the previous and install the new version?
Should I just install the new over the old version, using the same config options ?

Best practices would be appreciated, since this is a Production environment.  Centos 5.4 64 bit.

Thanks !


Michael
