Upgrade from 0.14.x, 0.15.3 to 0.16.3

Dependency redis helm chart was replaced by redis-cluster helm chart. The old redis instances will be destroyed in favour of new redis-cluster. Data migration is not supported but could be done manually which is out of the scope of this chart.

Upgrade from 0.14.x to 0.15.3

Version 0.15.1 of Cloudentity kube stack helm chart uses docker.cloudentity.io as the secret name referencing Cloudentity registry. If you’re using the artifactory and haven’t overridden imagePullSecrets before, you have to create a new secret with the name docker.cloudentity.io.

See Docker Pull Credentials.

Upgrade from 0.15.x to 0.15.3

Due to bug in Cloudentity, redis-cluster implementation was reverted back to redis helm chart. Redis multi-master instances will be destroyed and recreated as master-replica. Data migration is not supported but could be done manually which is out of the scope of this chart.
