    Upgrading to 0.11.x

    This guide explains how to upgrade from 0.10.x to 0.11.x.

    Before you begin

    Before you begin the upgrade process, ensure that you have a backup of your data.

    The upgrade process will not touch the actual backup data, but might change the resource definitions and remove the Deployments of backups, the operator, and other components.

    Checklist

    Follow the steps in this checklist to upgrade to 0.11.x.

    Pause backups

    Pause all backups to prevent any changes to the backup data by setting the .spec.enabled field to false.

    #!/usr/bin/sh
    for backup_name in $(kubectl get backups -n [NAMESPACE] -o custom-columns='NAME:.metadata.name' --no-headers)
    do
    kubectl patch --type merge backup -n [NAMESPACE] "$backup_name" -p '{"spec":{"enabled": false}}'
    done

    Replace [NAMESPACE] with the namespace where the backups are located.

    Pause existing operator

    Pause the existing operator by setting the .spec.replicas field to 0.

    Terminal window
    $ kubectl scale deployment kannika-operator -n kannika-system --replicas=0

    This will ensure no changes are made to the existing resources while the upgrade is in progress.

    If you are using a Helm chart to manage the operator, you can set the operator.replicaCount field to 0 in the Helm values file:

    values.yaml
    operator:
    replicaCount: 0

    Upgrade CRDs

    Install the new Custom Resource Definitions (CRDs) for 0.11.x.:

    Using kubectl
    Terminal window
    $ kubectl apply -f https://docs.kannika.io/refs/0.11.0/crd/kannika-crd-v1alpha.yml
    Using Helm
    Terminal window
    $ helm install kannika-crd oci://quay.io/kannika/charts/kannika-crd \
    --version 0.11.0

    Upgrade application

    Upgrade to the new version of Kannika Armory using Helm:

    Terminal window
    $ helm upgrade --install kannika oci://quay.io/kannika/charts/kannika \
    --create-namespace \
    --namespace kannika-system \
    --version 0.11.0 \
    --values values.yaml

    If you are disabled the operator using Helm, make sure to reset operator.replicaCount field to 1:

    values.yaml
    operator:
    replicaCount: 0
    replicaCount: 1

    Enable backups again

    Once you have completed the upgrade process, enable backups again by setting the .spec.enabled field to true.

    #!/usr/bin/sh
    for backup_name in $(kubectl get backups -n [NAMESPACE] -o custom-columns='NAME:.metadata.name' --no-headers)
    do
    kubectl patch --type merge backup -n [NAMESPACE] "$backup_name" -p '{"spec":{"enabled": true}}'
    done

    Replace [NAMESPACE] with the namespace where the backups are located.

    Verify the installation

    Verify that the upgrade was successful by checking the logs of the Kannika Armory components:

    Terminal window
    $ kubectl logs -n kannika-system -l app.kubernetes.io/name=operator # or kannika-operator
    $ kubectl logs -n kannika-system -l app.kubernetes.io/name=api # or kannika-api
    $ kubectl logs -n kannika-system -l app.kubernetes.io/name=console # or kannika-console

    Verify that the backups are running as expected:

    Terminal window
    $ kubectl get backups -n [NAMESPACE]
    $ kubectl get schemaregistrybackups -n [NAMESPACE]

    If you encounter any issues during the upgrade process, do not hesitate to contact us on Slack.
