I am looking at a client’s Team City setup helping them to plan an upgrade from 7.1.4 to 7.2.8 (1 DB, 2 web servers using load balancing setup as recommended on Our).
TeamCity has an initial build step to upgrade the nuget packages.
All the Umbraco files are checked in, and any environmental config file changes are done via transforms.
The plan is:
Switch to a cached version of the site
Do full backups, obviously!
Kick off the Team City deployment
Once Team City reports that it has successfully completed the deployment, we manually clear the umbracoConfigurationStatus appSetting on one of the web servers and load the site locally on that server to force the database to upgrade
If all works, switch back to the live sites
Can anyone who uses Team City with Umbraco give us any feedback on this?

Well the client went ahead with the plan as described above and relieved to say it all worked fine! Hope this might be useful to someone else!
