<div dir="ltr"><div>I am planning to upgrade my Openstack Pike. Please could I ask some questions about this so I understand better how to proceed? </div> <div><b>Background</b>: <div>- I have Openstack Pike running on 3 nodes (2 x compute and 1 x controller). Storage is provided by a Cinder driver and separate vendor storage array (iSCSI). <div><br></div><div>- I have a bug which is impacting Cinder in Pike which is not present in Queens/Stein. </div><div><br></div><div>- Since I installed Openstack some years ago, I was not able to update/patch it for a number of reasons. </div><div><br></div><div>- The Openstack which I installed was from the <a href="http://tripleo.org">tripleo.org</a> website and I followed the instructions there.</div><div><br></div><div>- I have configured LBaaS that was available in Pike by making config changes to .conf files. </div><div><br></div><div>-
I recall reading a few months ago when I started looking into this that I need to update to the latest within the current version (Pike) first, before updating beyond Pike so I am planning for that. </div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><b>Questions</b>: </div><div>1. do I first need to deconfigure / remove the LBaaS before attempting an upgrade beyond Pike? </div><div>2. The tripleo website is a little confusing. I am running Pike and it is not containerised. The upgrade info on <a href="http://tripleo.org">tripleo.org</a> mentions upgrades to Pike in a containerised environment. So should I follow the detail for the "Ocata and earlier" release in this case? ref: <a href="http://tripleo.org/upgrade/minor_update.html#updating-your-overcloud-ocata-and-earlier">http://tripleo.org/upgrade/minor_update.html#updating-your-overcloud-ocata-and-earlier</a></div><div>3. Do I need to upgrade to each release? ie from Pike > Queens then Queens > Stein etc ? Or can I do this: <br>a) update Pike to the latest in the current Pike release<br>b) Update Pike to Train <br><br></div><div><br></div><div><b>What I've gathered so far:</b></div><div>- If I can execute the 'openstack overcloud update' and limit it to the controller node then I can apply this to a cloned environment consisting of 1 x undercloud "director" and 1 x controller but I am unable to stage this for the compute nodes because they are physical bare-metal</div><div><br></div><div>- the tripleo website guide lists the latest as 'Rocky' but I could see Stein in the yum search. I think I can follow the tripleo guide with a pinch of salt and replace *rocky* with *stein*</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Thank you </div><div><div><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><p><br></p><p style="background-image:initial;background-position:initial;background-repeat:initial"><a name="SignatureSanitizer_SafeHtmlFilter__MailAutoSig"><b><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial,sans-serif;color:black">Tony Pearce</span></b></a><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Arial,sans-serif;color:black">
