Upgrading the Db2 Operator in an
air-gapped environment
There are two ways of upgrading the Db2 Operator in an
air-gabbed environment, either through a bastion host or by transferring it to the cluster from a
portable device.
Upgrading the Db2 Operator through a bastion host
If your cluster is not connected to the internet, you can mirror images to a registry in your network-restricted environment by using a bastion host. A bastion host is a device that has access to both the public internet and the network-restricted environment where a local registry and Red Hat® OpenShift® Container Platform clusters reside. Using the bastion host, you can mirror your images directly to the local registry.
Upgrading the Db2 Operator in an air-gapped Red Hat OpenShift cluster with no bastion host
You can upgrade the Db2 Operator in an air-gapped Red Hat OpenShift cluster by doing an on-site transfer of the required components from a portable device.
