Upgrading Kubernetes-based installations
Upgrade your Kubernetes installation.
Before you begin
Note: If you are running an
HCL™ Accelerate version
prior to 2.4, you need to uninstall the
product and perform a full installation of version 2.4.x found here and skipping Step 3 because you are not
required to uninstall the MongoDB.
HCL™ Accelerate
installation properties are stored in the /home/.ucv/settings.json
file
on the computer where you installed the product. If the user that is upgrading the
product is not the user who installed it, ensure that the settings.json
file is copied to the upgrading user's /home/.ucv
directory before
upgrading. About this task
When you run the installer, it checks for an existing installation. If the installer finds a previous version, it uses installed properties, such as your product access key, and assumes that you are upgrading the product.
Procedure
-
Download the installation file for your environment.
Note: HCL™ Accelerate does not perform malware scanning on the installed files. It is recommended that end users implement malware scanning as appropriate for their environment before installing and running the HCL™ Accelerate in their environment.
- Run the downloaded executable file.
-
Complete installation by responding to the prompts described in the following steps.
When the script starts, you are prompted to accept the license. You can explicitly accept the license without viewing it by appending the following parameter to the command:
./<Accelerate-installation-file> --license=accept
The images are loaded on the local host. -
