Upgrade the ingress controller Jump to heading

When to use this procedure

You can use this procedure to upgrade HAProxy Kubernetes Ingress Controller anywhere you have installed it using Helm. This includes on-premises installations as well as installations in cloud providers.

If you installed the ingress controller using Helm, you can use the helm upgrade command to upgrade to the latest version. Helm will initiate a rolling update, waiting for the new ingress controller pods to start up before terminating the old ingress controller pods. That way, there is no interruption in service.

To perform the upgrade:

When calling helm upgrade, pass all arguments that you previously used when installing the ingress controller. Helm will install the latest version.

nix
helm upgrade haproxy-kubernetes-ingress haproxytech/kubernetes-ingress \
  --create-namespace \
  --namespace haproxy-controller
nix
helm upgrade haproxy-kubernetes-ingress haproxytech/kubernetes-ingress \
  --create-namespace \
  --namespace haproxy-controller

You can provide a specific version of the Helm chart you wish to use if you want to upgrade to a version that is not the latest version.

To see the list of available versions (and their corresonding Helm chart version) use the helm search repo command with the --versions flag to list all of the available versions of the Helm chart:

nix
helm search repo haproxytech/kubernetes-ingress --versions
nix
helm search repo haproxytech/kubernetes-ingress --versions

To upgrade to a specific version of the HAProxy Kubernetes Ingress Controller, use the --version parameter and provide the version of the Helm chart that corresponds to that version. For example, to install version 1.10.9, we will specify the Helm chart version as 1.34.1:

nix
helm upgrade haproxy-kubernetes-ingress haproxytech/kubernetes-ingress \
  --create-namespace \
  --namespace haproxy-controller \
  --version 1.34.1
nix
helm upgrade haproxy-kubernetes-ingress haproxytech/kubernetes-ingress \
  --create-namespace \
  --namespace haproxy-controller \
  --version 1.34.1

Update CRDs Jump to heading

If you installed the ingress controller with Helm, updates to CRDs are applied automatically upon installation (helm install) and upgrade (helm upgrade). If you installed the ingress controller via kubectl, you will need to run a CRD update job using kubectl.

Prerequisites

This procedure does not install CRDs. Before updating them, you must make sure they are installed. See each CRD page under the Reference section for more information.

To update your CRDs:

  1. Find the ingress controller pod using kubectl get pods:

    nix
    kubectl get pods -n haproxy-controller
    nix
    kubectl get pods -n haproxy-controller
    example output
    text
    NAME                                          READY   STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE
    haproxy-kubernetes-ingress-59f7587966-9kjtv   1/1     Running   0          11m
    example output
    text
    NAME                                          READY   STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE
    haproxy-kubernetes-ingress-59f7587966-9kjtv   1/1     Running   0          11m

  2. Using the name of the haproxy-kubernetes-ingress pod (or one of the pods if you have more than one), call kubectl exec with the command /haproxy-ingress-controller --job-check-crd to update the CRDs. Note that this does not actually run an instance of the ingress controller, but rather, runs the ingress controller in a special mode that updates CRDs only.

    nix
    kubectl exec -it -n haproxy-controller haproxy-kubernetes-ingress-59f7587966-9kjtv -- /haproxy-ingress-controller --job-check-crd
    nix
    kubectl exec -it -n haproxy-controller haproxy-kubernetes-ingress-59f7587966-9kjtv -- /haproxy-ingress-controller --job-check-crd
    example output
