Upgrading your STAP Environment

To upgrade your STAP environment:

  1. Download the new version of STAP CNTK:

    curl cntk_link cntk_zip
unzip cntk_zip
    where:
    • cntk_link is the link to download the CNTK
    • cntk_zip is the location of the CNTK

  2. Load all the images for each microservice to be upgraded from the CNTK image folder:

    From the CNTK_home/microservice_directory: 
    podman load -i image.tar

  3. Tag the images for upload:

    podman tag image_name:image_id repoDest

  4. Push the images to the repository:

    podman push repoDest

    Note:

    Repeat the following steps for each microservice.

  5. Navigate to the directoryName/stap-microservice/helm_chart/ directory.

    where:
    • directoryName is the name of your STAP microservice directory
    • stap-microservice is each STAP microservice
    • helm_chart is the helm chart of the respective STAP microservice

    Update the override-values.yaml file with the new imageName.

  6. List Helm releases in the namespace to get the chart name:

    helm ls -n namespace

    helm upgrade chart_name path_to_chart_dir --values override-values.yaml -n namespace
