Swimlane 10.11.3 Upgrade Instructions

Use these instructions to upgrade your instance of Swimlane 10.x.

Upgrade Swimlane 10.11.3_480 on Embedded Online Cluster Installations

Use the following instructions to upgrade this version of Swimlane on an embedded cluster installation.

Prerequisites:

Swimlane version 10.6 or greater. If you are not on a version that is > 10.6, contact your Swimlane support representative.

MongoDB 4.4.11

Important! Swimlane recommends that you perform a MongoDB backup prior to starting this update. For more information, see Backup and Restore on an Embedded Cluster with Snapshots.

Upgrade Instructions:

SSH into any node in your deployment and execute the following commands to begin the Swimlane Platform Installer component upgrade: $ kubectl annotate crd prometheuses.monitoring.coreos.com kubectl.kubernetes.io/last-applied-configuration- $ curl -sSL https://kurl.sh/swimlane-platform-stable-10-11-3 | sudo bash -s ha load-balancer-address=<SwimlaneDNS>:6443 NOTE: If you have configured SELinux, append this to the command above: installer-spec-file=se.yaml0

For a multi-node (HA) cluster, the script prompts you to drain node one (1) and apply the upgrade. Once the upgrade on node one (1) is complete, the process continues running. It then asks for confirmation to drain node two (2) as well as a command to run in that node. See this example:

✔ Kubernetes host packages installed node/ip-10-1-0-147.swimlane.io already uncordoned Drain node ip-10-1-0-186.swimlane.io to prepare for upgrade? (Y/n) y ... pod/swimlane-syslog-receiver-86f79c8fd6-2rvwt evicted pod/swimlane-tasks-5dfd4d5f94-tkrb2 evicted node/ip-10-1-0-186.swimlane.io evicted Run the upgrade script on remote node to proceed: ip-10-1-0-186.swimlane.io curl https://kurl.sh/swimlane-testing-scott-qa-spt-7770-1/upgrade.sh | sudo bash -s kubernetes-version=1.21.14✔ Kubernetes host packages installed node/ip-10-1-0-147.swimlane.io already uncordoned Drain node ip-10-1-0-186.swimlane.io to prepare for upgrade? (Y/n) y...pod/swimlane-syslog-receiver-86f79c8fd6-2rvwt evicted pod/swimlane-tasks-5dfd4d5f94-tkrb2 evicted node/ip-10-1-0-186.swimlane.io evicted Run the upgrade script on remote node to proceed: ip-10-1-0-186.swimlane.io curl https://kurl.sh/swimlane-testing-scott-qa-spt-7770-1/upgrade.sh | sudo bash -s kubernetes-version=1.21.14

Run the upgrade command on the node that was drained. Use kubectl get nodes -o wide to find the IP of the node that was drained. The primary script that ran in node 1 will detect that node 2 has been upgraded, and will now ask to drain and upgrade node three (3). Follow the same steps for node 2 to complete the upgrade.

Once the additional nodes are complete, press Enter in the terminal window of the first node in which you ran the install command to complete the installation.

Go to the Version History tab and look for version 10.11.3_480If this version doesn’t show up initially, click Check For Updates.

A pop-up window appears, click Go to updated version.

Click Deploy on the new 10.11.3_480 version with the highest sequence number at the top of the versions list.

Once the Application tab shows ‘Ready’ your upgrade is complete.

See Update the Swimlane Python Driver Python Package if you want to update the driver at this time.

KOTS kubectl plugin 1.90.0

Velero 1.9.x

Important! Swimlane recommends that you perform a MongoDB backup prior to starting this update. For more information, see Backup and Restore on an Existing Cluster with Snapshots.

Upgrade Instructions:

Download the SPI kubectl add-on version 1.90.0: $ curl https://kots.io/install/1.90.0 | bash

Next, upgrade the Swimlane Platform Installer (SPI): $ kubectl kots admin-console upgrade -n <namespace>

Download Velero 1.9.2 for your OS version: https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/releases/tag/v1.9.2 For example: $ curl -sSL https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/releases/download/v1.9.2/velero-v1.9.2-linux-amd64.tar.gz -o velero-v1.9.2-linux-amd64.tar.gz Untar the file and then change directory (cd) into the uncompressed directory: $ tar -zxf <FILENAME>.tar.gz$ cd <DIRECTORY>

Update Velero custom resource definitions: $ ./velero install --crds-only --dry-run -o yaml | kubectl apply -f -

$ kubectl set image daemonset/restic restic=velero/velero:v1.9.2 --namespace velero Note: This update may take a minute in order to get the new pods rolled out.

Update the images Velero and Restic use to 1.9.2. $ kubectl set image deployment/velero velero=velero/velero:v1.9.2 --namespace velero

Confirm that both the client and server versions are on the same 1.9.2 release: $ ./velero version

Go to the Version History tab and look for version 10.11.3_480 If this version doesn’t show up initially, click Check For Updates. If you are asked to configure, scroll to PostgreSQL

Upgrade Swimlane 10.11.3_480 on Embedded Airgap Cluster Installations

Prerequisites

Swimlane version 10.6+If you are not on a version that is > 10.6, contact your Swimlane support representative.

MongoDB 4.4.11

Links to the Offline Installer Package and Offline Airgap Bundle If you do not have these linked, contact your Swimlane support representative.

Important! Swimlane recommends that you perform a MongoDB backup prior to starting this update. For more information, see Backup and Restore on an Embedded Cluster with Snapshots.

Upgrade Instructions:

Copy the latest offline installer package to each airgapped server. Untar the offline installer package on each server. $ tar -xzvf swimlane-platform-10.11.3_471.tar.gz

Run this command on any node in your deployment before the upgrade can start, it removes an annotation from a Prometheus resource. $ kubectl annotate crd prometheuses.monitoring.coreos.com kubectl.kubernetes.io/last-applied-configuration-

Run the Swimlane Platform Installer update on any node in your deployment: $ cat install.sh | sudo bash -s airgap ha

Once the install is complete, if you have a multi-node (HA) cluster, the script prompts you to run an additional command on every node.

Run this script on node swimlane-2 to load required images before proceeding:

cat ./tasks.sh | sudo bash -s load-images Have images been loaded on node swimlane-2? (Y/n)

Run cat ./tasks.sh | sudo bash -s load-images on nodes two (2) and node three (3) before proceeding to run the command on node one (1). This command can be run simultaneously on nodes 2 and 3. Once the load-images script completes on nodes 2 and 3, enter Y in the node 1 terminal session twice.

The install script now runs on node 1 for a few minutes. Once it completes, follow the prompts to run the upgrade script on nodes 2 and 3, similar to this example (the IP address will depend on your deployment):

Installation Complete ✔ Run this script on all remote nodes to apply changes cat upgrade.sh | sudo bash -s airgap docker-registry-ip=10.96.3.115 Press enter to proceed

When both upgrade scripts are complete, press Enter on node 1 and then upload the airgap bundle to the SPI dashboard.

Go to the Version History tab and look for version 10.11.3_480. If this version doesn’t show up initially, click Check For Updates
