Upgrading kuryr-kubernetes

Upgrading kuryr-kubernetes

Kuryr-Kubernetes supports standard OpenStack utility for checking upgrade is possible and safe:

$ kuryr-k8s-status upgrade check
+---------------------------------------+
| Upgrade Check Results                 |
+---------------------------------------+
| Check: Pod annotations                |
| Result: Success                       |
| Details: All annotations are updated. |
+---------------------------------------+

If any issue will be found, the utility will give you explanation and possible remediations. Also note that Warning results aren’t blocking an upgrade, but are worth investigating.

Stein (0.6.x) to T (0.7.x) upgrade

In T we want to drop support for old format of Pod annotations (switch was motivated by multi-vif support feature implemented in Rocky). To make sure that you don’t have unsupported Pod annotations you need to run kuryr-k8s-status upgrade check utility before upgrading Kuryr-Kubernetes services to T.

Note

In case of running Kuryr-Kubernetes containerized you can use kubectl exec to run kuryr-k8s-status

$ kubectl -n kube-system exec -it <controller-pod-name> kuryr-k8s-status upgrade check
$ kuryr-k8s-status upgrade check
+---------------------------------------+
| Upgrade Check Results                 |
+---------------------------------------+
| Check: Pod annotations                |
| Result: Success                       |
| Details: All annotations are updated. |
+---------------------------------------+

In case of Failure result of Pod annotations check you should run kuryr-k8s-status upgrade update-annotations command and check again:

$ kuryr-k8s-status upgrade check
+----------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Upgrade Check Results                                                |
+----------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Check: Pod annotations                                               |
| Result: Failure                                                      |
| Details: You have 3 Kuryr pod annotations in old format. You need to |
|          run `kuryr-k8s-status upgrade update-annotations`           |
|          before proceeding with the upgrade.                         |
+----------------------------------------------------------------------+
$ kuryr-k8s-status upgrade update-annotations
+-----------------------+--------+
| Stat                  | Number |
+-----------------------+--------+
| Updated annotations   | 3      |
+-----------------------+--------+
| Malformed annotations | 0      |
+-----------------------+--------+
| Annotations left      | 0      |
+-----------------------+--------+
$ kuryr-k8s-status upgrade check
+---------------------------------------+
| Upgrade Check Results                 |
+---------------------------------------+
| Check: Pod annotations                |
| Result: Success                       |
| Details: All annotations are updated. |
+---------------------------------------+

It’s possible that some annotations were somehow malformed. That will generate a warning that should be investigated, but isn’t blocking upgrading to T (it won’t make things any worse).

If in any case you need to rollback those changes, there is kuryr-k8s-status upgrade downgrade-annotations command as well.
