Chapter 4. Updating the Overcloud

Procedure

1. Source the stackrc file:

   $ source ~/stackrc

2. Run the update preparation command:

   $ openstack overcloud update prepare \
       --templates \
       -r <ROLES DATA FILE> \
       -n <NETWORK DATA FILE> \
       -e <ENVIRONMENT FILE> \
       -e <ENVIRONMENT FILE> \
       --stack <STACK_NAME> \
       …​

   Include the following options relevant to your environment:

   • Custom configuration environment files (-e)
   • If using your own custom roles, include your custom roles (roles_data) file (-r)
   • If using custom networks, include your composable network (network_data) file (-n)
   • If the name of your overcloud stack is different to the default name overcloud, include the --stack option in the update preparation command and replace <STACK_NAME> with the name of your stack.
3. Wait until the update preparation completes.

Procedure

1. Source the stackrc file:

   $ source ~/stackrc

2. Run the openstack overcloud external-update run command against tasks tagged with the container_image_prepare tag:

   $ openstack overcloud external-update run --stack STACK_NAME --tags container_image_prepare

Procedure

1. Source the stackrc file:

   $ source ~/stackrc

2. Run the update command:

   $ openstack overcloud update run --stack STACK_NAME --limit Controller --playbook all

3. Wait until the Controller node update completes.

Procedure

1. Source the stackrc file:

   $ source ~/stackrc

2. Run the update command:

   $ openstack overcloud update run --stack STACK_NAME --limit Compute --playbook all

3. Wait until the Compute node update completes.

Procedure

1. Source the stackrc file:

   $ source ~/stackrc

2. Run the update command:

   $ openstack overcloud update run --stack _STACK_NAME_ --limit ComputeHCI --playbook all

3. Wait until the node update completes.

4. Run the Ceph Storage update command. For example:

   $ openstack overcloud external-update run --stack _STACK_NAME_ --tags ceph

5. Wait until the Compute HCI node update completes.

Procedure

1. Source the stackrc file:

   $ source ~/stackrc

2. Update group nodes.

   To update all nodes in a group:

   $ openstack overcloud update run --nodes <GROUP_NAME>

   To update a single node in a group:

   $ openstack overcloud update run --nodes <GROUP_NAME> [NODE_INDEX]

   Note

   Ensure that you update all nodes if you choose to update nodes individually.

   The index of the first node in a group is zero (0). For example, to update the first node in a group named CephStorage, the command is:

   openstack overcloud update run --nodes CephStorage[0]

3. Wait until the node update completes.

4. Run the Ceph Storage container update command:

   $ openstack overcloud external-update run --stack _STACK_NAME_ --tags ceph

5. Wait until the Ceph Storage container update completes.

Procedure

1. Source the stackrc file:

   $ source ~/stackrc

2. Run the openstack overcloud external-update run command against tasks tagged with the online_upgrade tag:

   $ openstack overcloud external-update run --stack STACK_NAME --tags online_upgrade

Procedure

1. Source the stackrc file:

   $ source ~/stackrc

2. Run the update finalization command:

   $ openstack overcloud update converge \
       --templates \
       -r <ROLES DATA FILE> \
       -n <NETWORK DATA FILE> \
       -e <ENVIRONMENT FILE> \
       -e <ENVIRONMENT FILE> \
       --stack <STACK_NAME> \
       …​

   Include the following options relevant to your environment:

   + * Custom configuration environment files (-e) * If using your own custom roles, include your custom roles (roles_data) file (-r) * If using custom networks, include your composable network (network_data) file (-n) * If the name of your overcloud stack is different to the default name overcloud, include the --stack option in the update preparation command and replace <STACK_NAME> with the name of your stack.

3. Wait until the update finalization completes.
