Upgrading Mirantis k0rdent Enterprise#

Note

If upgrading from versions of Mirantis k0rdent Enterprise prior to v1.0.0, upgrade to v1.0.0 first to facilitate the change from alpha to beta APIs.

Upgrading Mirantis k0rdent Enterprise involves making upgrades to the Management object. To do that, you must have the Global Admin role. (For detailed information about Mirantis k0rdent Enterprise RBAC roles and permissions, refer to the RBAC documentation.) Follow these steps to upgrade Mirantis k0rdent Enterprise:

Create a new Release object

Start by creating a Release object in the management cluster that points to the desired version. You can get Release object for the current version from the following URL: https://get.mirantis.com/k0rdent-enterprise/1.1.0/release.yaml

Once you've chosen a release, you can go ahead and create the release object by referencing the YAML file online, as in:
```
kubectl create -f https://get.mirantis.com/k0rdent-enterprise/1.1.0/release.yaml
```
```
release.k0rdent.mirantis.com/k0rdent-enterprise-1-1-0 created
```
List Available Releases

Once you've created the new Release you need to update the Management object to use it. Start by viewing all available Releases:
```
kubectl get releases
```
```
NAME        AGE
kcm-0-0-6   71m
kcm-0-0-7   65m
kcm-0-1-0   6d9h
k0rdent-enterprise-1-1-0   12m
```
Patch the Management object with the new Release

Update the spec.release field in the Management object to point to the new release. Replace <release-name> with the name of your desired release:
```
RELEASE_NAME=k0rdent-enterprise-1-1-0
kubectl patch managements.k0rdent.mirantis.com kcm --patch "{\"spec\":{\"release\":\"${RELEASE_NAME}\"}}" --type=merge
```
Verify the Upgrade

Although the change will be made immediately, it will take some time for Mirantis k0rdent Enterprise to update the components it should be using. Monitor the readiness of the Management object to ensure the upgrade was successful. For example:
```
kubectl get managements.k0rdent.mirantis.com kcm
```
```
NAME   READY   RELEASE     AGE
kcm    True    k0rdent-enterprise-1-1-0   4m34s
```
