Ultra Cloud Core 5G Policy Control Function, Release 2023.04 - Configuration and Administration Guide - PCF Rolling Software Update [Cisco Ultra Cloud Core - Policy Control Function]

Updating PCF

The following section describes the procedure involved in updating the PCF software:

Rolling Software Update Using SMI Cluster Manager

Rolling Software Update Using SMI Cluster Manager

The PCF software update or in-service update procedure utilizes the K8s rolling strategy to update the pod images. In K8s rolling update strategy, the pods of a StatefulSet are updates sequentially to ensure that the ongoing process remains unaffected. Initially, a rolling update on a StatefulSet causes a single pod instance to terminate. A pod with an updated image replaces the terminated pod. This process continues until all the replicas of the StatefulSet are updated. The terminating pods exit gracefully after competing all the ongoing processes. Other in-service pods continue to receive and process the traffic to provide a seamless software update. You can control the software update process through the Ops Center CLI.

Note

Each pod needs a minimum of two replicas for high availability. For example, Policy Engine must have 2 Engine replicas. In a worst-case scenario, the processing capacity of the pod may briefly reduce to 50% while the software update is in-progress.

The following figure illustrates a PCF rolling update for PCF REST endpoint pods (two replicas) on Protocol worker nodes along with PCF Service pods (three replicas) on Service worker nodes.

Prerequisites

The prerequisites for upgrading PCF are:

All the nodes – including all the pods in the node – are up and running.

A patch version of the PCF software.

Note

Currently, major versions do not support the rolling upgrade. The major version represents the release year, release number, and maintenance number. Cisco follows the versioning format as YYYY.RN.MN such as 2020.03.0.

Important

Trigger rolling upgrade only when the CPU usage of the nodes is less than 50%.

PCF Health Check

You need to perform a health check to ensure that all the services are running and nodes are in ready state. To perform a health check:

kubectl get pods -n smi 
kubectl get nodes 
kubectl get pod --all-namespaces -o wide 
kubectl get pods -n pcf-wsp -o wide 
kubectl get pods -n cee-wsp -o wide 
kubectl get pods -n smi-vips -o wide 
helm list 
kubectl get pods -A | wc -l

Important

Ensure that all the nodes are in the ready state before you proceed further. Use the kubectl get nodes command to display the node states.

Preparing for Upgrade

This section describes the procedure involved creating a backup configuration, logs, and deployment files. To back up the files:

Create a new directory for deployment.

Example:

test@smipcf-cm01:~$ mkdir -p "temp_$(date +'%m%d%Y_T%H%M')" && cd "$_"

Move all the pcf deployment file into the newly created deployment directory.

Untar the pcf deployment file.

Example:

test@smi1pcf01-cm01:~/temp_08072019_T1651$ tar -xzvf pcf.2020.01.0-1.SPA.tgz
./
./PCF_REL_KEY-CCO_RELEASE.cer
./cisco_x509_verify_release.py
./pcf.2020.01.0-1.tar
./pcf.2020.01.0-1.tar.signature.SPA
./pcf.2020.01.0-1.tar.SPA.README

Verify the downloaded image.

Example:

test@smi1pcf01-cm01:~/temp_08072019_T1651$ cat pcf.2020.01.0-1.tar.SPA.README

Important

Follow the procedure mentioned in the SPA.README file to verify the build before proceeding to the next step.

Back Up SVN, Policy, and CRD Data

This section describes the procedure involved in creating a backup of SVN, Policy, and CRD data. To perform a backup of SVN and Policy files:

Use the following command to retrieve the Policy Builder URL.

kubectl get ing -n $( kubectl get namespaces | grep -oP 'pcf-(\d+|\w+)' | cut -d\  -f1) | grep policy-builder | awk '{ print $2 }'
pb.pcf-02-pcf-engine-app-blv02.ipv4address.nip.io

Example:

ubuntu@ mas01:~/backups_09182019_T2141$ kubectl get ing -n $( kubectl get namespaces | grep -oP 'pcf-(\d+|\w+)' | cut -d\  -f1) | grep policy-builder | awk '{ print $2 }'

Sample output:

pb.pcf-02-pcf-engine-app-blv02.ipv4address.nip.io

Upgrading the PCF

This section describes the procedures involved in upgrading PCF.

Staging a New PCF Image

This section describes the procedure involved in staging a new PCF image before initiating the upgrade.

To stage the new PCF image:

Download and verify the new PCF image.
Log in to the SMI Cluster Manager node as an ubuntu user.

Copy the images to Uploads directory.

sudo mv <pcf_new_image.tar> /data/software/uploads

Note

The SMI uses the new image present in the Uploads directory to upgrade.

Verify whether the image is picked up by the SMI for processing from the Uploads directory.

sleep 30; ls /data/software/uploads

Example:

ubuntu@popcf-cm01:~/temp_08072019_T1651$ sleep 30; ls /data/software/uploads
ubuntu@popcf-cm01:~/temp_08072019_T1651$

Verify whether the images were successfully picked up and processed.

Example:

auser@unknown:$ sudo du -sh /data/software/packages/*
1.6G	/data/software/packages/cee.2019.07
5.3G	/data/software/packages/pcf.2019.08-04
16K	/data/software/packages/sample

Note

The SMI must unpack the images into the packages directory successfully to complete the staging.

Triggering the Rolling Software Upgrade

The PCF utilizes the SMI Cluster Manager to perform a rolling software update. To update PCF using SMI Cluster Manager, use the following configurations:

Important

Before you begin, ensure that PCF is up and running with the current version of the software.

Verifying the Helm Status

This section describes the procedure involved in verifying the helm status. You need to determine whether the deployed helm chart is listed in the helm list successfully.

To determine the helm status:

Run the following on the master node to view the list of deployed helm charts.
```
helm list 
```
If the helm chart is not found, run the following in the operational mode to view the charts irrespective of their deployment status.
```
show helm charts 
```

Verifying the Pods

This section describes the procedure involved in determining the pod and container status after upgrading PCF. You need to ensure that the pods and containers are up and running.

Use the following commands to view the PCF pod logs.

kubectl describe pod pod_name -n namespace

Note

If the Status column displays the state as Running, and the Ready column has the same number of containers on both sides of the forward-slash (/), then the pod is healthy and operational.

Rollback the Upgrade

You can rollback the upgrade if you encounter any issues during the upgrade process. This section describes the procedure involved rolling back the upgrade.

Reloading PCF Ops Center Configuration

This section describes the procedure involved in reloading the PCF Ops Center configuration from the backup file.

To reload the PCF Ops Center configuration:

Untar the backup file created on SMI and move it into a directory.

Example:

ubuntu@popcf-cm01:~$ cd ~/backups && tar –zxf popcf-cfg-backup_110219-053530.tar.gz
ubuntu@popcf-cm01 :~/backups$

Move the backup configuration file into the newly created backups directory.

Example:

ubuntu@popcf-cm01 :~/backups$ cd popcf-cfg-backup_110219-053530
ubuntu@popcf-cm01 :~/backups/popcf-cfg-backup_110219-053530$

Convert the exported PCF Ops Center configuration into a clean file, which is ready for import.

Example:

ubuntu@popcf-cm01 :~/backups/popcf-cfg-backup_110219-053530$ cat pcfops*.cfg | perl -pe 's/vendor.*\[(.*)\]/vendor $1/g' | perl -pe 's/(^\s+ips).*\[(.*)\]/$1$2/g' | perl -pe 's/(\w)\s+(\w)/$1 $2/g' | perl -pe 's/^\s+//g' | grep -v "system mode run" > pcfops.txt
ubuntu@popcf-cm01 :~/backups/popcf-cfg-backup_110219-053530$

Updating PCF Ops Center Configuration

This section describes the procedure involved in updating the PCF Ops Center configuration after restoring it. To update the PCF Ops Center configuration:

Run the following command to log in to the PCF Ops Center CLI.
