Upgrade PDS system on a target Kubernetes cluster
This topic provides the procedure to upgrade all PDS components that run on a target Kubernetes cluster using Helm
.
If you enable the Portworx CSI provisioner, then upgrading the PDS Helm chart makes the Portworx CSI provisioner mandatory for new data service deployments.
For more information about the provisioner options, see Add or manage a storage options template.

To upgrade PDS system:
-
Select Settings → Deployment Targets.
-
In the Deployment Targets page → in the deployed cluster that you want to upgrade, select the Upgrade button (under the HELM VERSION column):
