Hello,

I was wondering if it is possible to upgrade a site from drupal 6.16 to 6.17 using drush command?
I hope someone can help me =)

drush pm-update drupal, or simply drush pm-update.

Always upgrade a test site first.

drush pm-update drupal => this showed me all the modules on the site that have available downloads, but many I do not want to update and only want to update drupal 6.16 to 6.17 at this time.

I tried drush dl drupal-6.17 (like i do with other contrib modules) but it looks like it just downloaded the drupal 6.17 folder into the root directory and it did not install/update my site to drupal 6.17

I am testing on a test site as recommended

Could anyone please assist?

Regards

It's a test site; try it...

Sorry if I was not clear - I did try but it just created a folder in my root directory called drupal 6.17 instead of upgrading the site from 6.16 to 6.17

Is there documentation/instructions of how to upgrade core drupal with drush commands?

Thank you very much

Drush dl can be used to upgrade modules, but not drupal core. Try drush pm-update drupal like I suggested in #1. Drush will tell you about everything that is out of date, but it will only upgrade Drupal.
