Tool for Upgrading to new versions of JBoss?

[tek1]

Hello.

Just wondering if a tool exists (even just a .bat or .sh file) for upgrading to newer versions of JBoss?

I'm currently using 3.2.1, but would like to upgrade 3.2.2. I've always been manually copying the altered files in server/default/conf and server/default/deploy/jbossweb-jetty.sar/META-INF, etc., as well as manually copying the .jars added to server/default/lib and the .jars/.ears/.wars in server/default/deploy.

Just wondering if a "upgrade.bat/sh" exists that would allow upgrading to the newer JBoss version simply by specifying the existing (old) JBOSS_HOME directory?

For example:

/jboss/3.2.2/bin/upgrade.sh /jboss/3.2.1

would copy all modified configuration files and non-existant .jar/.ear/.war files from the 3.2.1 installation to the 3.2.2 installation?

Thank you.

No. I haven't seen an upgrade tool or shell script. You could of course add an ant target for doing this.

True, but the tricky part would be comparing each of the text configuration files and overwriting the parts of the files in the new JBoss version with the altered parts of the files from the old JBoss version. Are there any Ant-based "diff" tools?

Thanks.
