Upgrading MSDP Scaleout
You can upgrade the MSDP Scaleout solution to the latest version in your AKS or EKS environment.
To upgrade MSDP Scaleout operator
- Install the new kubectl plug-in and push the new docker images to your container registry.
- Run the following command to upgrade the MSDP operator.
kubectl msdp init -i <new-operator-image> -s <storage-class-name> -l agentpool=<nodepool-name> -n <operator-namespace>
All the options except -i option must be same as earlier when the operator was deployed initially.
To upgrade MSDP Scaleout CR resources
- If you use the environment operator for the MSDP Scaleout deployment, run the following command to change the spec.msdpScaleouts[<index>].tag field in the existing CR resources:
kubectl edit environment <environmentCR_name> -n <cr-namespace>
- This step is applicable to AKS only.
If MSDP S3 service is enabled and you want to upgrade from NetBackup 10.2, you must provide the pre-allocated MSDP S3 FQDN and IP address in the spec.msdpScaleouts[<index>].s3Ip field.
See Enabling MSDP S3 service after MSDP Scaleout is deployed for AKS.
- If you use the MSDP operator for the MSDP Scaleout deployment, run the following command to change the spec.version in the existing CR resources.
kubectl edit msdpscaleout <cr-name> -n <cr-namespace>
- This step is applicable to AKS only.
If MSDP S3 service is enabled and you want to upgrade from NetBackup 10.2, you must provide the pre-allocated MSDP S3 FQDN and IP address in the spec.s3ServiceIPFQDN field.
Wait for a few minutes. MSDP operator upgrades all the pods and other MSDP Scaleout resources automatically.
- Upgrade process restarts the pods. The NetBackup jobs are interrupted during the process.
