Chapter 14. Updating OpenShift Logging 14.1. Supported Versions For version compatibility and support information, see Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform Life Cycle Policy To upgrade from cluster logging in OpenShift Container Platform version 4.6 and earlier to OpenShift Logging 5.x, you update the OpenShift Container Platform cluster to version 4.7 or 4.8. Then, you update the following operators: From Elasticsearch Operator 4.x to OpenShift Elasticsearch Operator 5.x From Cluster Logging Operator 4.x to Red Hat OpenShift Logging Operator 5.x To upgrade from a version of OpenShift Logging to the current version, you update OpenShift Elasticsearch Operator and Red Hat OpenShift Logging Operator to their current versions. 14.2. Updating Logging to the current version To update Logging to the current version, you change the subscriptions for the OpenShift Elasticsearch Operator and Red Hat OpenShift Logging Operator. Important You must update the OpenShift Elasticsearch Operator before you update the Red Hat OpenShift Logging Operator. You must also update both Operators to the same version. If you update the Operators in the wrong order, Kibana does not update and the Kibana custom resource (CR) is not created. To work around this problem, you delete the Red Hat OpenShift Logging Operator pod. When the Red Hat OpenShift Logging Operator pod redeploys, it creates the Kibana CR and Kibana becomes available again. Prerequisites The OpenShift Container Platform version is 4.7 or later. The Logging status is healthy: All pods are ready . The Elasticsearch cluster is healthy. Your Elasticsearch and Kibana data is backed up. Procedure Update the OpenShift Elasticsearch Operator: From the web console, click Operators Installed Operators . Select the openshift-Operators-redhat project. Click the OpenShift Elasticsearch Operator . Click Subscription Channel . In the Change Subscription Update Channel window, select stable-5.x and click Save . Wait for a few seconds, then click Operators Installed Operators . Verify that the OpenShift Elasticsearch Operator version is 5.x.x. Wait for the Status field to report Succeeded . Update the Red Hat OpenShift Logging Operator: From the web console, click Operators Installed Operators . Select the openshift-logging project. Click the Red Hat OpenShift Logging Operator . Click Subscription Channel . In the Change Subscription Update Channel window, select stable-5.x and click Save . Wait for a few seconds, then click Operators Installed Operators . Verify that the Red Hat OpenShift Logging Operator version is 5.y.z Wait for the Status field to report Succeeded . Check the logging components: Ensure that all Elasticsearch pods are in the Ready status: USD oc get pod -n openshift-logging --selector component=elasticsearch Example output NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE elasticsearch-cdm-1pbrl44l-1-55b7546f4c-mshhk 2/2 Running 0 31m elasticsearch-cdm-1pbrl44l-2-5c6d87589f-gx5hk 2/2 Running 0 30m elasticsearch-cdm-1pbrl44l-3-88df5d47-m45jc 2/2 Running 0 29m Ensure that the Elasticsearch cluster is healthy: USD oc exec -n openshift-logging -c elasticsearch elasticsearch-cdm-1pbrl44l-1-55b7546f4c-mshhk -- health { "cluster_name" : "elasticsearch", "status" : "green", } Ensure that the Elasticsearch cron jobs are created: USD oc project openshift-logging USD oc get cronjob NAME SCHEDULE SUSPEND ACTIVE LAST SCHEDULE AGE elasticsearch-im-app */15 * * * * False 0 <none> 56s elasticsearch-im-audit */15 * * * * False 0 <none> 56s elasticsearch-im-infra */15 * * * * False 0 <none> 56s Verify that the log store is updated to 5.x and the indices are green : USD oc exec -c elasticsearch <any_es_pod_in_the_cluster> -- indices Verify that the output includes the app-00000x , infra-00000x , audit-00000x , .security indices.
