Upgrading K10

Note

Currently, upgrades are only supported across a maximum of four versions (e.g., 2.0.10 -> 2.0.14). If your K10 version is further behind the latest, a step upgrade process is recommended where you can use the --version flag with helm upgrade to control the version jumps.

Upgrading Helm-Installed K10

To upgrade to the latest K10 release, unless you have installed K10 via the a public cloud marketplace, you should run the following command assuming you installed in the kasten-io namespace with the release name k10. If you do not remember your release name, you can easily discover that via the use of helm list --namespace=kasten-io.

$ helm repo update && \
    helm get values k10 --output yaml --namespace=kasten-io > k10_val.yaml && \
    helm upgrade k10 kasten/k10 --namespace=kasten-io -f k10_val.yaml

Known Issues: Helm 3 has known bugs with upgrade (e.g., #6850). If you run into errors along the lines of

Error: UPGRADE FAILED: rendered manifests contain a new resource that already exists. Unable to continue with update: existing resource conflict: kind: Deployment, namespace: kasten-io, name: prometheus-server

Please use the following as a workaround and then run the above upgrade commands.

$ kubectl --namespace=kasten-io delete deployment prometheus-server
