# Updating the Geo nodes **(PREMIUM SELF)**
This file was moved to [another location](updating_the_geo_sites.md).
WARNING:
<!-- This redirect file can be deleted after <2021-11-23>. -->
Read these sections carefully before updating your Geo nodes. Not following
<!-- Before deletion, see: https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/development/documentation/#move-or-rename-a-page -->
version-specific update steps may result in unexpected downtime. If you have
any specific questions, [contact Support](https://about.gitlab.com/support/#contact-support).
Updating Geo nodes involves performing:
1.[Version-specific update steps](version_specific_updates.md), depending on the
version being updated to or from.
1.[General update steps](#general-update-steps), for all updates.
## General update steps
NOTE:
These general update steps are not intended for [high-availability deployments](https://docs.gitlab.com/omnibus/update/README.html#multi-node--ha-deployment), and will cause downtime. If you want to avoid downtime, consider using [zero downtime updates](https://docs.gitlab.com/omnibus/update/README.html#zero-downtime-updates).
To update the Geo nodes when a new GitLab version is released, update **primary**
and all **secondary** nodes:
1.**Optional:**[Pause replication on each **secondary** node.](../index.md#pausing-and-resuming-replication)
1. Log into the **primary** node.
1.[Update GitLab on the **primary** node using Omnibus](https://docs.gitlab.com/omnibus/update/#update-using-the-official-repositories).
1. Log into each **secondary** node.
1.[Update GitLab on each **secondary** node using Omnibus](https://docs.gitlab.com/omnibus/update/#update-using-the-official-repositories).
1. If you paused replication in step 1, [resume replication on each **secondary**](../index.md#pausing-and-resuming-replication)
1.[Test](#check-status-after-updating)**primary** and **secondary** nodes, and check version in each.
### Check status after updating
Now that the update process is complete, you may want to check whether
everything is working correctly:
1. Run the Geo Rake task on all nodes, everything should be green:
```shell
sudo gitlab-rake gitlab:geo:check
```
1. Check the **primary** node's Geo dashboard for any errors.
1. Test the data replication by pushing code to the **primary** node and see if it
is received by **secondary** nodes.
If you encounter any issues, see the [Geo troubleshooting guide](troubleshooting.md).

### Check status after updating
Now that the update process is complete, you may want to check whether
everything is working correctly:
1. Run the Geo Rake task on an application node for the primary and secondary sites. Everything should be green:
```shell
sudo gitlab-rake gitlab:geo:check
```
1. Check the **primary** site's Geo dashboard for any errors.
1. Test the data replication by pushing code to the **primary** site and see if it
is received by **secondary** sites.
