Upgrade the Kubernetes Operator in Agentless Containers

This topic describes how to upgrade the Kubernetes Operator in Agentless Containers via a Helm upgrade command. Upgrading allows uptaking a patch or release to benefit form bug fixes or new functionality.

Before you begin

This process requires the same onboarding credential file used to initially onboard the agentless container.

Upgrade Kubernetes Operator with a Helm Chart Command

  1. Locate the onboarding credential used to initially onboard.

  2. Upgrade the Kubernetes Operator by running the Helm Chart upgrade command.

    helm upgrade illumio -f <file location> --namespace illumio-cloud oci://ghcr.io/illumio/charts/cloud-operator --version <ver#> --create-namespace

    The option --version <ver#> is the version you want to upgrade to, and -f <file location> indicates the location of your onboarding credential.

    For example, if the version you want to upgrade to is v1.3.3 and the onboarding credential is located in illumio-cloud-operator-values-f73eba32-638b-47f8-b92f-e4852b8cf7fb.yaml, the command would be:

    helm upgrade illumio -f illumio-cloud-operator-values-f73eba32-638b-47f8-b92f-e4852b8cf7fb.yaml --namespace illumio-cloud oci://ghcr.io/illumio/charts/cloud-operator --version v1.3.3 --create-namespace

  3. Verify the upgrade by running the Helm Chart version command:

    helm version
