本分分享 GitLab 降级的流程和注意事项。极狐GitLab 为 GitLab 的中文发行版，本文以私有化部署的极狐GitLab 为例来演示整个过程。
【极狐GitLab 推出 GitLab 老旧版本的专业升级服务，可以让 12.x、13.x、14.x、15.x 等老旧版本的升级平滑不出问题】
首先确定当前的版本信息，在实例 URL 后面加 /help就可以查看：
当前实例为 17.5.1-jh。我们降级到 17.4.0-jh。
降级之前需要做好备份，执行 gitlab-backup create即可开始备份。
# 开始备份
gitlab-backup create

Please back them up manually.

2024-11-13 04:43:46 UTC -- Deleting backup and restore PID file at [/opt/gitlab/embedded/service/gitlab-rails/tmp/backup_restore.pid] ... done
# 查看备份
ls -ltr /var/opt/gitlab/backups/
-rw------- 1 git git 379535360 Nov 13 04:43 /var/opt/gitlab/backups/1731472989_2024_11_13_17.5.1-jh_gitlab_backup.tar
接着执行降级的步骤，大体为：
- 停止极狐GitLab
- 移除当前的软件包
- 安装降级之后的安装包
- 重新配置极狐GitLab
- 恢复备份
- 启动极狐GitLab
下面我们一步步演示在 ubuntu 22.04 上如何降级安装好的极狐GitLab 实例。
整体步骤
停止极狐GitLab
# If running Puma
sudo gitlab-ctl stop puma
# Stop sidekiq
sudo gitlab-ctl stop sidekiq
移除当前的安装包
# If on Ubuntu: remove the current package
sudo dpkg -r gitlab-jh
安装降级之后的安装包
可以执行 apt-cache madison gitlab-jh找到需要降级的对应安装包信息。本文选择降级到 17.4.0-jh.0。
接着执行安装命令进行低版本极狐GitLab 的安装：
apt install gitlab-jh=17.4.0-jh.0
安装成功会显示如下界面：
重新配置极狐GitLab
执行 reconfigure命令重新配置极狐GitLab
# 重新配置实例
gitlab-ctl reconfigure
# 查看组件状态
gitlab-ctl status

恢复数据
# 找到对应的备份文件，恢复数据
gitlab-backup restore BACKUP=1730349575_2024_10_31_17.4.0-jh

2024-11-13 06:13:09 UTC -- Warning: Your gitlab.rb and gitlab-secrets.json files contain sensitive data

2024-11-13 06:13:09 UTC -- Restore task is done.
2024-11-13 06:13:09 UTC -- Deleting backup and restore PID file at [/opt/gitlab/embedded/service/gitlab-rails/tmp/backup_restore.pid] ... done
接着访问极狐GitLab 实例，查看对应的版本即可
注意事项
对于极狐GitLab 的降级操作一定是要慎之又慎，而且要确保做好了数据备份。如果在整个过程中出现问题，可以寻求极狐GitLab 专业升级服务。
