Immich V2 Upgrade to V3

So i have had a update on my Immich Server to upgrade to V3, I run my Immich Server in Synology Container manager.
Looking over the documents for the upgrade it seems straight forward so here goes nothing.
Before we start backup all your data, I use Synology Hyperbackup for this.
Step 1

Login to your DSM and Head over to you Container manager.
Side note this is a test bed for most of my projects, The errors are from other projects im working on.
Step 2

Select Projects and locate your Immich project.
Step 3

Press your right mouse button and select stop.
This Will stop all the IMMICH project.
Step 4

Now we have stopped the IMMICH project, time to get to work on upgrading the project.
Step 5

Load up Text editor
Step 6

Goto Docker / Project / immich folder
Step 7

Drag and drop the .ENV file onto text editor
Step 8

All you need todo is change V2 to V3 like below
IMMICH_VERSION=v3
Then save and Exit Text editor.
Step 9

Head back over to Container manager where your project will still be down
Step 10


Now right mouse button on the project and select clean. this will take out version 2
Close the terminal window.
Step 11

Right mouse button on the project again and select Build.
It is important that you select build and not start.

could be time for a coffee while you wait.

complete download and build now onto Step 12.
Step 12
Close the Terminal window.

and you should have a green light next to your project.


Select Immich Project and all should be ok like mine
But has it worked
Step 13

Fire up your webpage and see if you have a Server online. We have success. as you can see above
I have tested this on a dummy project and my very own setup both updated and installed no prblem.
Final Thoughts.
The Development team here have done a amazing job making everything so simple, If your looking for a image and video program to replace Synology photo this is the one for you. I have only been using Immich for 1 month and the software has everything i need and more as i use it more.
This whole process took about 15 Minutes and that includes making a coffee.
If you are looking for the Setup project for Immich V2 its here
