Note: Use the specific SHA value provided to you in the notification of a newer version of the kube-rbac-proxy.
1. Ensure you have admin access to the cluster
2. Log in to the Red Hat OpenShift web console.
3. From the navigation menu, go to Operators → Installed Operators.
4. Select the namespace where the IBM Financial Transaction Manager Controller operator is installed.
5. Select IBM Financial Transaction Manager Controller and open the Subscription or ClusterServiceVersion details associated with the installed operator.
8. Search for ose-kube-rbac-proxy
9. Record the current SHA value.
10.2 Update the SHA for both instances by using the OpenShift CLI.
The ClusterServiceVersion (CSV) must be retrieved from the namespace where the IBM Financial Transaction Manager Controller operator is installed. This might be the FTM deployment namespace or another namespace selected when the controller operator was installed.
First, identify the namespace and CSV name:
oc get csv --all-namespaces | grep ibm-ftm-operator
Confirm that the result corresponds to the IBM Financial Transaction Manager Controller operator for the FTM release you want to update. Record the namespace and CSV name returned by the command.
Choose one of the following CLI methods. Do not run both.
Method A: Use placeholder values
Replace each placeholder before running the command:
oc get csv <ftm_operator_csv_name> \
-n <operator_namespace> \
-o json |
jq \
--arg name "kube-rbac-proxy" \
--arg image \
"icr.io/cpopen/ibm-ftm/openshift4/ose-kube-rbac-proxy@sha256:<sha_value>" \
'del(.metadata.annotations["kubectl.kubernetes.io/last-applied-configuration"]) | (.spec.relatedImages[] | select(.name == $name)).image = $image | (.spec.install.spec.deployments[].spec.template.spec.containers[] | select(.name == $name)).image = $image' |
oc replace -n <operator_namespace> -f -Replace:
<ftm_operator_csv_name>with the CSV name.<operator_namespace>with the namespace containing the CSV.<sha_value>with the SHA-256 digest provided in the support notification.
Method B: Use shell variables
Set the variables before running the update command:
CSV_NAME="ibm-ftm-operator.vX.X.X" OPERATOR_NAMESPACE="your-operator-namespace" SHA_VALUE="your-sha256-value"
KUBE_PROXY_IMAGE="icr.io/cpopen/ibm-ftm/openshift4/ose-kube-rbac-proxy@sha256:${SHA_VALUE}"
oc get csv "${CSV_NAME}" \
-n "${OPERATOR_NAMESPACE}" \
-o json |
jq \
--arg name "kube-rbac-proxy" \
--arg image "${KUBE_PROXY_IMAGE}" \
'del(.metadata.annotations["kubectl.kubernetes.io/last-applied-configuration"]) | (.spec.relatedImages[] | select(.name == $name)).image = $image | (.spec.install.spec.deployments[].spec.template.spec.containers[] | select(.name == $name)).image = $image' |
oc replace -n "${OPERATOR_NAMESPACE}" -f -For Method B:
CSV_NAMEis the CSV name returned by the discovery command.OPERATOR_NAMESPACEis the namespace containing the CSV.SHA_VALUEcontains only the characters followingsha256:.
11. Verify the updated operator pod
In the Red Hat OpenShift web console, go to Workloads → Pods. Select the namespace where the FTM controller operator is installed, search for ibm-ftm-operator-controller-manager, and open the restarted pod.
On the pod details page, review the container image information and verify that the ose-kube-rbac-proxy image uses the new SHA value.
12. Save the changes
13. The ibm-ftm-operator-controller-manager pod will automatically restart
14. Browse to Workloads -> Pods, search for ibm-ftm-operator-controller-manager, click on the POD, browse to the YAML tab, and verify the ose-kube-rbac-proxy image SHA
Replace the <sha_value> with the sha value you specified in the YAML. For e.g.
oc get pods --all-namespaces -o jsonpath='{range .items[*]}{@.metadata.namespace}{" "}{@.metadata.name}{" "}{range @.status.containerStatuses[*]}{@.image}{"\n"}{end}{end}' | grep 'sha256:bb84ead437042603254efcb703442be8500a9450b10bbcaaee81b48a6ed869ea'
