Migrating secure clients from CentOS OVAs to Rocky Linux OVAs

CentOS Linux reached end-of-life on June 30, 2024 and is no longer supported. If you are running CentOS Linux 7, migrate to Rocky Linux to continue receiving security updates, fixes, and new features. For more information, see What to know about CentOS Linux EOL.

Complete the following steps to migrate the secure client from a CentOS OVA to a Rocky Linux OVA.

  1. Open an SSH terminal session to the existing CentOS OVA.

  2. Retrieve the existing Turbonomic client custom resource instance. In the example below, turbonomic-client is the namespace in which it is installed.

    kubectl get tc -n turbonomic-client

    The output is similar to the following example:

    NAME                       VERSION
    turbonomicclient-release   8.15.0
  3. Determine which probes are currently enabled for the active Turbonomic client instance, which is turbonomicclient-release in this example.

    kubectl get tc turbonomicclient-release -n turbonomic-client -o yaml | yq '.spec.probes' | grep "enabled: true" -B 1

    The output is similar to the following example:

    
        netApp:
          enabled: true
        pure:
          enabled: true
        ucs:
          enabled: true
        vCenter:
          enabled: true
        ...
  4. Shut down or delete the existing CentOS OVA.

  5. Install a new Rocky Linux OVA secure client as described in this topic.

  6. Enable any additional probes on the new OVA as described in this topic.

  7. Perform the token exchange as described in this topic.
