WHAT TO EXPECT

The nodes upgrade is automatic based on the restart of the nodes containing the xNIC.

In this article, you will learn how you can use this method to upgrade your xNIC nodes on K8s to match the version of your cloudSwXtch. 

Before you upgrade the xNIC nodes on K8s, you need to upgrade the cloudSwXtch to the latest version. See Upgrading cloudSwXtch for more information

Restarting the xNIC DaemonSet 

  1. Sign into your preferred cloud's portal. 

  2. Open cloudShell as Bash. 

  3. Run the following command:

    kubectl rollout restart ds swxtch-xnic -n kube-system
    1. This will restart the Kubernetes swxtch-xnic DaemonSet and update the version of the xNIC to match that of the cloudSwXtch.
