Remove old containers

Before launching the containers of the current minor version, stop all LUNA PLATFORM related containers of the previous minor version and third-party software containers.

Third-party containers can also be removed as their versions can be updated in new build.

PostgreSQL and InfluxDB require restarting even if their containers were not changed. This is related to the transfer of their data folders. See "Move data".

To delete a container use the next command:

docker container rm -f [container_name]

where [container_name] is the service docker container name or ID.

For example, to remove LP containers only use the following command:

docker container rm -f luna-configurator luna-backport3 luna-backport4 luna-sender  luna-tasks luna-handlers  luna-python-matcher luna-events luna-licenses luna-faces luna-image-store luna-ui-3 luna-ui-4 luna-liveness luna-admin luna-api luna-tasks-worker luna-python-matcher-proxy luna-index-manager luna-indexer luna-index-matcher

To see the containers names or IDs, use the following command:

docker ps -a

It is also recommended to delete old images of the containers to free space. You can use the following command to delete all unused images.

If there is enough space on the server it is recommended to perform this action only after new version of LP is successfully launched.

The command deletes all the unused images, not only the images related to LP.

docker image prune -a -f
