Upgrading IBM PEM Standard using the Helm Chart

About this task

You can upgrade the existing deployment when you have a new Docker image, or a new Helm chart version, or a change in the configuration.

To upgrade the chart with the release name my-release, follow the steps.

Procedure

  1. Download and extract the helm charts on your local machine.
  2. Copy all the properties configured in the older version of the charts (in values.yaml) into the new charts and configure any new properties if required.
    Note: Do not reuse the older chart version with the new image.
  3. Update the following properties in values.yaml: 
    dbsetup.enabled = false
dbsetup.upgrade = true
  4. Run the following command to upgrade your deployments: 
    helm upgrade my-release -f values.yaml ./ibm-pem-standard --timeout 3600s --namespace <namespace>
