Switch LTS > Weekly

[john.peterson]

Since my LTS is stuck looking at only the LTS site, I assume to switch, I manually download the weekly I want and simply overwrite the .war?  And then it will be smart enough to know it is the weekly?

What it doesn't directly say, but I think is implied, I have no way of using the Jenkins interface to switch lines. I have to manually download and manually install (overwrite) the .war file and restart Jenkins. THEN I can use Jenkins directly for further updates.

BTW, not sure why you're doing this: "Since my LTS is stuck looking at only the LTS site" seems slightly concerning. Are you sure you're switching for the right reason?

Rule of thumb: if you're switching to using Jenkins weeklies, you should also be already planning to upgrade your Jenkins instance *at least once a month or more*. 

If not, then LTS is much better designed for your use case.

Cheers

I usually update every couple of weeks.  I try to find an instance that has a lot of installed users, few errors, and ideally, zero critical errors.
