Upgrade a Worker on Kubernetes
You can upgrade an existing Availability On-premise Vantage Point Worker, also known as Worker, on Kubernetes by updating the Helm Chart.
Here are the steps to be performed to upgrade the Worker on Kubernetes:
- If you have not saved the original values file used during the initial Helm chart installation, you can retrieve the user-supplied values by running the following:
helm get values <release-name> -n <namespace> -o yaml > /home/user/myvalues.yaml
All values are now saved under
/home/user/myvalues.yaml
file. - Use the
/home/user/myvalues.yaml
file as an argument in thehelm upgrade
command, like the following:-f /home/user/myvalues.yaml
- Use
--set
parameter for old and new values by running the following:helm upgrade --install --wait --namespace <namespace> --create-namespace <release-name> <helm_chart_path_new_version> [--set <previous_customized_value> ..] [--set <new_variables_value>]
- Run the
helm upgrade
command to changeLOG_LEVEL=DEBUG
and pass previously used values along with the new or updated values.For example, see below the new values forWORKER_NAMES
andLOG_LEVEL
are passed along with the existing values:export PULLSECRET=`kubectl -n default get secret ocirsecret -o jsonpath='{.data.*}'`; helm upgrade --install --wait \ --namespace opvp-ns --create-namespace \ --set pvp.name=opvp-name \ --set opvp.env.WORKER_NAMES="{worker-1,worker-2}"\ --set image.repository=phx.ocir.io/axlxx1s82ggh/nhedau/opvp:1.2.8\ --set image.pullSecret=$PULLSECRET \ --set opvp.env.LOG_LEVEL=DEBUG \ --set opvp.proxy.enabled=true\ --set opvp.env.WORKER_PROXY_LOCATION=www-proxy.aa.bb.com:80\ --set opvp.env.WORKER_PROXY_BYPASS_LIST=''\ --set opvp.env.WORKER_PROXY_USER=''\ --set opvp.env.WORKER_PROXY_PASS=''\ --set opvp.env.WORKER_PROXY_TYPE=BASIC \ --set opvp.env.APM_DOMAIN_OCID=ocid1.apmdomain.oc1.phx.aaa......rcq \ --set opvp.env.OPVP_OCID=ocid1.apmsyntheticopvp.oc1.phx.aaa...tva \ --set opvp.env.APM_DOMAIN_PRIVATE_DATA_KEY=4PU....RHK \ --set opvp.env.SYN_API_SERVER=https://apm-synthetic.us-phoenix-1.oci.oraclecloud.com/ \ --set opvp.env.AUTH_TYPE=oci_config \ --set opvp.env.OCI_CONFIG_PROFILE=dev-phx \ --set opvp.oci.config=/Users/ppp/Downloads/oci/config \ --set opvp.oci.apiKey=/Users/ppp/Downloads/oci/oci-api-key.pem \ --set nodeSelector.applications=synthetic-agent \ --set nodeSelector.app=apm_synthetic \ opvp-1.2.8 apm-synthetic-worker-helm-0.2.59/helm/.
Note
Do not pass--reuse-values
tohelm upgrade
command because the default values in the new Helm chart version will get ignored which can result in templating errors and upgrade failures.
