To upgrade a container that is running on BDDS, you should first test the new image on a BDDS appliance in a Lab environment. If the container performs as expected, you can then push that updated image to the production BDDS.
Before you begin, complete the following:
- Back up
/root/gwdata/
and/var/log/gateway/
from the BDDS appliance - Back up the original image, or ensure that it is still available on the cloud or local repository
- Ensure that the new or updated image is available on the cloud or local
repository and has been tagged appropriately to differentiate it from the old
image. As a best practice, BlueCat recommends using proper version tags and
avoid using the
latest
tag
