Upgrade Portworx in ROSA

caution

If you're upgrading OpenShift to 4.12 or newer, you must change Portworx before you can do so. See the OCP upgrade page for details.

If you're using the Portworx Operator, you can upgrade or change your Portworx version at any time by modifying the StorageCluster spec. In addition to managing a Portworx cluster, the Operator also manages the following other components in the Portworx platform:

  • Stork
  • Autopilot

For simplicity, the Portworx Operator handles the component upgrades without user intervention. When Portworx upgrades, the Operator upgrades the installed components to the recommended version as well.

Prerequisites​

  • You must already be running Portworx through the Operator, this method will not work for other Portworx deployments.
  • You must be running the latest available version of the Operator.

Upgrade Portworx​

note

If you override the default PodDisruptionBudget, ensure that the storage-pdb-min-available value is greater than or equal to OCP's MCP maxUnavailable.

note
  • If you override the default PodDisruptionBudget in OpenShift platforms, ensure that the storage-pdb-min-available value is greater than or equal to OCP's MCP maxUnavailable.

  1. Identify Your StorageCluster:

    Retrieve the name of your Portworx storage cluster within the appropriate namespace:

    oc get storagecluster -n <px-namespace>
    NAME                                            STATUS   VERSION   AGE
    px-cluster-xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx Online   2.10.3    43d

    If your cluster is installed in a different namespace, specify it using the -n flag.

  2. Edit the StorageCluster:

    Modify the StorageCluster resource to update Portworx to the desired version:

    oc edit storagecluster -n <px-namespace> <storagecluster-name>

    In the editor, change the spec.image field to your desired Portworx version:

    apiVersion: core.libopenstorage.org/v1
    kind: StorageCluster
    metadata:
       name: portworx
       namespace: <px-namespace>
    spec:
       image: portworx/oci-monitor:<desired-version>
    note
    • If there are any component images configured in the StorageCluster, such as the spec.stork.image or spec.autopilot.image fields, you need to update the image fields to the latest version.
    • To look up recent versions, refer to the following release notes:

  3. Verify the Upgrade:

    Confirm the upgrade by checking the Portworx version on the nodes:

    oc get storagenodes -n <px-namespace> -l name=portworx
    NAME       ID                                     STATUS   VERSION          AGE
    node-1-1   xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx   Online   <desired-version>   10d
