Chapter 2. 3scale template-based upgrade guide: from 2.9 to 2.10

This section contains information about upgrading Red Hat 3scale API Management from version 2.9 to 2.10, in a template-based deployment.

Important

In order to understand the required conditions and procedure, read the entire upgrade guide before applying the listed steps. The upgrade process disrupts the provision of the service until the procedure finishes. Due to this disruption, make sure to have a maintenance window.

2.1. Prerequisites to perform the upgrade
Copy link

This section describes the required configurations, tasks and tools to upgrade 3scale from 2.9 to 2.10 in a template-based installation.

2.1.1. Configurations
Copy link

  • 3scale supports upgrade paths from 2.9 to 2.10 with templates on OpenShift 3.11.

2.1.2. Preliminary tasks
Copy link

  • Ensure your OpenShift CLI tool is configured in the same project where 3scale is deployed.
  • Perform a backup of the database you are using with 3scale. The procedure of the backup is specific to each database type and setup.

2.1.3. Tools
Copy link

You need these tools to perform the upgrade:

  • 3scale 2.9 deployed with templates in an OpenShift 3.11 project.
  • Bash shell: To run the commands detailed in the upgrade procedure.
  • base64: To encode and decode secret information.
  • jq: For JSON transformation purposes.

Follow the procedure described in this section to upgrade 3scale 2.9 to 2.10 in a template-based installation.

To start with the upgrade, go to the project where 3scale is deployed. 

$ oc project <3scale-project>
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

Then, follow these steps in this order:

  1. Section 2.2.1, “Creating a backup of the 3scale project”
  2. Section 2.2.2, “Updating 3scale version number”
  3. Section 2.2.3, “Upgrading 3scale images”

2.2.1. Creating a backup of the 3scale project
Copy link

Previous step

None.

Current step

This step lists the actions necessary to create a backup of the 3scale project.

  1. Depending on the database used with 3scale, set ${SYSTEM_DB} with one of the following values:

    • If the database is MySQL, SYSTEM_DB=system-mysql.
    • If the database is PostgreSQL, SYSTEM_DB=system-postgresql.

  2. Create a back-up file with the existing DeploymentConfigs: 

    $ THREESCALE_DC_NAMES="apicast-production apicast-staging backend-cron backend-listener backend-redis backend-worker system-app system-memcache ${SYSTEM_DB} system-redis system-sidekiq system-sphinx zync zync-database zync-que"

for component in ${THREESCALE_DC_NAMES}; do oc get --export -o yaml dc ${component} > ${component}_dc.yml ; done
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

  3. Backup all existing OpenShift resources in the project that are exported through the export all command: 

    $ oc get -o yaml --export all > threescale-project-elements.yaml
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

  4. Create a back-up file with the additional elements that are not exported with the export all command: 

    $ for object in rolebindings serviceaccounts secrets imagestreamtags cm rolebindingrestrictions limitranges resourcequotas pvc templates cronjobs statefulsets hpa deployments replicasets poddisruptionbudget endpoints
do
  oc get -o yaml --export $object > $object.yaml
done
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
  5. Verify that all of the generated files are not empty, and that all of them have the expected content.

Next step

Section 2.2.2, “Updating 3scale version number”

2.2.2. Updating 3scale version number
Copy link

Previous step

Section 2.2.1, “Creating a backup of the 3scale project”

Current step

This step updates the 3scale release version number from 2.9 to 2.10 in the system-environment ConfigMap. AMP_RELEASE is a ConfigMap entry referenced in some DeploymentConfig container environments.

  1. To patch AMP_RELEASE, run this command: 

    $ oc patch cm system-environment --patch '{"data": {"AMP_RELEASE": "2.10"}}'
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

  2. Confirm that the AMP_RELEASE key in the system-environment ConfigMap has the 2.10 value: 

    $ oc get cm system-environment -o json | jq '.data["AMP_RELEASE"]'
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

Next step

Section 2.2.3, “Upgrading 3scale images”

2.2.3. Upgrading 3scale images
Copy link

Previous step

Section 2.2.2, “Updating 3scale version number”

Current step

This step updates the 3scale images required for the upgrade process.

2.2.3.1. Patch the system image
Copy link

  1. Create the new image stream tag: 

    $ oc patch imagestream/amp-system --type=json -p '[{"op": "add", "path": "/spec/tags/-", "value": {"annotations": {"openshift.io/display-name": "AMP system 2.10"}, "from": { "kind": "DockerImage", "name": "registry.redhat.io/3scale-amp2/system-rhel7:3scale2.10"}, "name": "2.10", "referencePolicy": {"type": "Source"}}}]'
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

  2. To continue the procedure, consider the database used with your 3scale deployment:

Next step

None. After you have performed all the listed steps, 3scale upgrade from 2.9 to 2.10 in a template-based deployment is now complete.

This section explains how to upgrade Red Hat 3scale API Management when you are using a 3scale system image with an Oracle Database, in a template-based installation with OpenShift 3.11.

Prerequisites

A 3scale installation with the Oracle Database. See Setting up your 3scale system image with an Oracle Database.

To upgrade your 3scale system image with an Oracle Database in a template-based installation, perform the procedure below:

2.3.1. Upgrading 3scale with Oracle 19c
Copy link

This procedure guides you through an Oracle Database 19c update for 3scale 2.10 from an existing 3scale 2.9 installation.

IMPORTANT: Loss of connection to the database can potentially corrupt 3scale. Make a backup before proceeding to perform the upgrade. See the official Oracle Database documentation: Oracle Database Backup and Recovery User’s Guide.

Prerequisites

  • A 3scale 2.9 installation.

  • An Oracle Database 19c installation.

Procedure

  1. Clone the OpenShift Templates for 3scale 2.10 

    $ git clone --branch 3scale-2.10.0-GA https://github.com/3scale/3scale-amp-openshift-templates.git
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
  2. Place your Oracle Database Instant Client Package files into the 3scale-amp-openshift-templates/amp/system-oracle/oracle-client-files directory.

  3. Run the oc process command with the -f option and specify the build.yml OpenShift template: 

    $ oc process -f build.yml | oc apply -f -
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

  4. Run the oc new-app command with the -f option to indicate the amp.yml OpenShift template, and the -p option to specify the WILDCARD_DOMAIN parameter with the domain of your OpenShift cluster: 

    $ oc new-app -f amp.yml -p WILDCARD_DOMAIN=mydomain.com
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
    Note

    The following steps are optional. Use them if you remove ORACLE_SYSTEM_PASSWORD after the installation or a system upgrade.

  5. Enter the following oc patch commands, replacing SYSTEM_PASSWORD with the Oracle Database system password you set up in Preparing the Oracle Database: 

    $ oc patch dc/system-app -p '[{"op": "add", "path": "/spec/strategy/rollingParams/pre/execNewPod/env/-", "value": {"name": "ORACLE_SYSTEM_PASSWORD", "value": "SYSTEM_PASSWORD"}}]' --type=json

$ oc patch dc/system-app -p '{"spec": {"strategy": {"rollingParams": {"post":{"execNewPod": {"env": [{"name": "ORACLE_SYSTEM_PASSWORD", "value": "SYSTEM_PASSWORD"}]}}}}}}'
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

  6. Enter the following command, replacing DATABASE_URL to point to your Oracle Database, specified in Preparing the Oracle Database: 

    $ oc patch secret/system-database -p '{"stringData": {"URL": "DATABASE_URL"}}'
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

  7. Enter the oc start-build command to build the new system image: 

    $ oc start-build 3scale-amp-system-oracle --from-dir=.
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

  8. Wait until the build completes. To see the state of the build, run the following command: 

    $ oc get build <build-name> -o jsonpath="{.status.phase}"
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
    1. Wait until the build is in a Complete state.

  9. Once you have set up your 3scale system image with your Oracle Database, remove ORACLE_SYSTEM_PASSWORD from the system-app DeploymentConfig. It is not necessary again until you upgrade to a new version of 3scale. 

    $ oc set env dc/system-app ORACLE_SYSTEM_PASSWORD-
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
