Description

Users want to keep their existing database data, when upgrading. Currently, configure.sh will blow away data. There needs to be a distinction between "install" vs. "upgrade" in the script.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the configure.sh script to identify where database initialization occurs and how it can be made conditional on whether it's a fresh install or an upgrade. Look for environment variables, flags, or existing backup logic to leverage.
