upgrading karaf

is there some standard mechanism to upgrade karaf, rather than starting from scratch... re-installing bundles, config files etc. say i have a couple of instances using 2.3.1 and i want to move to 2.3.3?

Hi Marcos,

no, you are right. But if you use feature you can update boot features 
in etc/org.apache.karaf.features.cfg.

thank you. i'll give that a try. i thought though that if you remove the data folder, everything installed gets removed as well. maybe i'm mistaken.

Hi Marco,

you can update (merge) etc, system and data folders.

Generally speaking, it's good to remove the data folder and leave Karaf 
re-creates it.
