WHAT TO EXPECT
The node upgrade is automatic based on the restart of the nodes containing the xNIC.
In this article, users will learn how they can use this method to upgrade the xNIC nodes on K8s to match the cloudSwXtch version.
Before upgrading the xNIC nodes on K8s, users need to upgrade the cloudSwXtch to the latest version. See Upgrading cloudSwXtch for more information
Restarting the xNIC DaemonSet
Connect to a machine that has access to the Kubernetes cluster using Cloud Shell or any other means.
Run the following command:
kubectl rollout restart ds swx-xnic -n kube-system
This will restart the Kubernetes swxtch-xnic DaemonSet and update the xNIC version to match that of the cloudSwXtch.
