Upgrade AKO from OperatorHub.io

AKO version 4.0.1 has breaking changes from previous major versions. Review the Breaking Changes before upgrading.

This is the procedure to upgrade AKO, installed from OperatorHub.io, to version 4.0.1.

Verify that AKO 4.0.1 is available

Verify that the following command lists 4.0.1 as the current CSV version:

kubectl get packagemanifests  -l catalog=operatorhubio-catalog,provider=Aerospike -o yaml | grep currentCSV:

The following should appear:

Terminal window
    - currentCSV: aerospike-kubernetes-operator.v2.5.0
    - currentCSV: aerospike-kubernetes-operator.v4.0.1

Upgrade AKO

Based on the installPlanApproval mode, the upgrade of AKO can be one of

  • Automatic - the default when installing AKO from OperatorHub.io.
  • Manual - if the OperatorHub.io subscription has been edited to use manual approval.

Automatic

The standard install procedure sets up Automatic upgrade approval for AKO. In this case OLM automatically installs AKO version 4.0.1. You do not need to perform any manual steps to upgrade AKO.

You can skip ahead to verification.

Manual

If the OperatorHub.io subscription has been edited to use manual approval, you need to approve the upgrade as follows:

Verify that the InstallPlan for version 4.0.1 has been created.

kubectl get installplan -n operators | grep aerospike

Sample output with an InstallPlan for version 4.0.1.

NAME            CSV                                    APPROVAL   APPROVED
<br/>
install-2tg7p   aerospike-kubernetes-operator.v4.0.1   Manual     false

In this example, the upgrade is not applied since the APPROVED status is false.

To approve the upgrade, set the approved field in the InstallPlan to true:

kubectl patch installplan -n operators --type merge --patch '{'{'}"spec":{'{'}"approved":true{'}'}{'}'}'  $(kubectl get installplan -n operators | grep "aerospike-kubernetes-operator.v4.0.1" | cut -f 1 -d " ")

Verify that the Operator is upgraded

Run the following command:

kubectl get csv -n operators | grep aerospike

The upgrade can take some time. The CSV for version 4.0.1 goes through the phases Pending, Installing, InstallReady and finally Succeeded.

The sample output below illustrates a successful upgrade:

Terminal window
NAME                                   DISPLAY                         VERSION   REPLACES                               PHASE
aerospike-kubernetes-operator.v4.0.1   Aerospike Kubernetes Operator   4.0.1     aerospike-kubernetes-operator.v3.4.1   Succeeded

Check Operator Logs

AKO runs as two replicas by default for higher availability. Run the following command to follow the logs for the AKO pods.

kubectl -n operators logs -f deploymentaerospike-operator-controller-manager manager
