Kolla

Kolla Preparations

When using overlay configuration files at environments/kolla/files/overlays, the following overlay files need to be synchronized. Customer specific changes to the current files need to be copied manually to the new overlay configuration files.

HAProxy Preparations

  • When updating to Rocky - Synchronize haproxy.cfg to

    environments/kolla/files/overlays/haproxy/haproxy.cfg.

  • When updating to Stein - Synchronize haproxy_main.cfg to

    environments/kolla/files/overlays/haproxy/haproxy_main.cfg

    The old environments/kolla/files/overlays/haproxy/haproxy.cfg need to be deleted.

Horizon Preparations

  • The file environments/kolla/files/overlays/horizon/local_settings.j2 need to be removed.

  • Copy custom_local_settings to

    environments/kolla/files/overlays/horizon/custom_local_settings.

Backup MariaDB

Backup MariaDB databases before the upgrade on one of the control nodes:

The password for MariaDB can be found in the file environments/kolla/secrets.yml in the variable database_password.

docker exec -t mariadb innobackupex -u root -p DATABASE_PASSWORD /tmp/mariadb
docker cp mariadb:/tmp/mariadb $PWD/mariadb

See MariaDB backup for further details.

Running the upgrade

When using the osism-kolla upgrade command, the currently running container is shut down. Next the Docker image for the upgraded version is pulled, and finally the new container is started. It might be advisable to first pull the Docker image and then run osism-kolla upgrade. See Deploying Openstack Services for how to use osism-kolla pull.
