    Hi,
    is there an official procedure to update Pentaho 9.2 to Pentaho 9.3?
    I mean the Pentaho CE.

    Thank you very much

    I am sorry, the upgrade utility to backup and rollback upgrades is only part of the EE product.  https://help.hitachivantara.com/Documentation/Pentaho/9.3/Setup/Pentaho_upgrade
    But you can install both versions side by side, if you have the space.

    Greetings Claudio Battaglino
    Greetings Claudio, As far as I know (and confirmed by Stephen Donovan above) there is no official software to update the community versions of Pentaho.
    I manually updated all versions of Pentaho CE, side by side with the installed version and the new one. It's a tedious process, but I haven't had any major problems. I suggest keeping a list of all the files that need to be updated, since the more you customize, the easier it is to forget to change a file.
    Best regards

    One small addition.  You can leverage the KETTLE_HOME environment variable to move the default lookup for ~/.kettle to another path.  I use this often to allow differing configurations and move between environments and versions.  This includes the user specific plugins/ folder which is then outside of the release folders.
