Red Hat OpenShift upgrade fails

On demo/trial deployments, PodDisruptionBudgets (PDBs) block the upgrade of Red Hat® OpenShift®

Problem

The upgrade of Red Hat OpenShift is blocked on size0 demo/trial deployments. The Red Hat OpenShift: UI informs you that the Red Hat OpenShift: upgrade was successful, but running oc get nodes reveals that the worker nodes are not uplifted.

Cause

The Netcool® Operations Insight® PDBs block the upgrade of Red Hat OpenShift.

Resolution

The Netcool Operations Insight PDBs must be deleted by running the following commands before upgrading Red Hat OpenShift:
oc get pdb | grep <helm-release>
oc delete pdb -l release=noi-release-name --all
The oc get pdb command returns the PDB names, for example: noi-cassandra-pdb. Each PDB must be deleted with the oc delete pdb command.
