# Upgrading Appliances

In this example, we will update from jansa to kasparov.

1. Ensure that the appliance is up to date on the current branch

# dnf update

2. Install the new manageiq-release RPM for the version that you want to upgrade to. Refer to ([RPM URLs for manageiq-release](#rpm-urls-for-manageiq-release)) for the list of RPM URLs
2. Install the new manageiq-release RPM for the version that you want to upgrade to. Refer to the [release directory](https://rpm.manageiq.org/index.html?prefix=release/) in our RPM repository to find the latest manageiq-release rpm. The number is the alphabetical number of the release (e.g. j (jansa) is the 10th letter: 10-jansa, k (kasparov) is the 11th letter: 11-kasparov, etc.)

Would it make more sense to generate some other URL that links to the release rpm directly? Maybe something like https://rpm.manageiq.org/15.rpm?

I was thinking it would be a copy of the actual RPM (since we can't do rewrites or redirects with the current hosting)

I like the idea, but let's discuss in a separate issue. For now, I want to just remove the existing URLs.
