Open the docker-compose.yaml file using a text editor.
Locate the tagversion parameter and replace it with 7.2.0.
Save the changes to the docker-compose.yaml file.

Follow the below steps to upgrade the knowhow instance.

Steps Pull the images , stop the running container and run the new container by following commands .

docker-compose -f /docker-compose.yaml/file/location/docker-compose.yaml pull
docker exec mongodb /bin/bash -c 'mongo admin --username="${MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_USERNAME}" --password="${MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_PASSWORD}" --eval "db.shutdownServer()"'
docker-compose -f /docker-compose.yaml/file/location/docker-compose.yaml down
docker-compose -f /docker-compose.yaml/file/location/docker-compose.yaml up -d
