About Obtaining Container Images for the Upgrade

The TimesTen Operator provides several options for obtaining container images that contain the release of TimesTen that you want to use for the upgrade. These container images contain the YAML manifest files and Helm charts that are necessary to upgrade the TimesTen CRDs and the TimesTen Operator. For detailed information about your options, see Prepare to Use the TimesTen Kubernetes Operator.

The examples in this chapter assume you have made the following decisions:

• Container image: The container image that contains the new release of TimesTen is container-registry.oracle.com/timesten/timesten:22.1.1.35.0.

• Download directories: The directories on your development host that contain the YAML manifest files and Helm charts for the upgrade are new_kube_files/deploy and new_kube_files/helm respectfully.
