    <p>The ./data/shared/job_files/ folder contains copies of every
      original source file that has ever been imported. The links to
      download those files from job pages the staff interface will be
      broken unless you copy them over from the old ArchivesSpace
      instance to the new one. And there are log files for all types of
      jobs containing details not held in the database. Not essential,
      but it is worth considering whether you want to retain that
      historical record for future reference.<br>

      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>Let's say I've been running my ArchivesSpace in the directory
        '/whatever/someplace/archivesspace-v2.5/'  for a bunch of years
        now, and I want to get with the program and upgrade to the
        newest version.<br>
      </div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>So I download that and put it in
        '/whatever/someplace/archivesspace-v3.0/'  and put in the
        mysqlconnector file, and get my config.rb file set. I backup my
        database, shut down my old ArchivesSpace and run
        setup-datase.sh, and start up version 3.0! It starts up, runs
        fine, no errors, YAY ME! (I'm not running any plugins) (And no,
        there's no version 3.0 yet)<br>
      </div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>I didn't bother copying over the stuff in /data/ because that
        all gets rebuilt and I can wait for that to happen. So now what
        do I do with '/whatever/someplace/archivesspace-v2.5/' ?  I wait
        a few days, just to make sure I didn't miss any weird bugs or
        data trouble, and now there's nothing in
        '/whatever/someplace/archivesspace-v2.5/' that I need. I still
        have the old database in my backups, and I can always download
        the code again from GitHub if I need to, but there's no turning
        back now because I've been working!<br>

        <div dir="ltr">Hi all,<br>
          <br>
          I have a simple question- if we have followed instructions for
          upgrading to a new release of ArchivesSpace (<a href="https://archivesspace.github.io/archivesspace/user/upgrading-to-a-new-release-of-archivesspace/" moz-do-not-send="true">https://archivesspace.github.io/archivesspace/user/upgrading-to-a-new-release-of-archivesspace/</a>),
          are we clear to remove any previous installation directories?
          We currently have a single tmp file
          (jetty-0.0.0.0-8089-backend.war-_-any-) in an old version
          folder (v 2.6.0) that has for some reason ballooned in size
          (4.5 GB) and would like to remove it without repercussions.<br>
          <br>
          Thanks for your help!<br>
