#1695 Jenkins instance upgrade - how to
Closed: Fixed by psathyan. Opened by psathyan.

Hi,

We are currently running Jenkins 2.462.1 and would like to upgrade to the latest version. Would it be possible to provide documentation on how to upgrade the instances

Jenkins URL: https://jenkins-nfs-ganesha.apps.ocp.cloud.ci.centos.org/

I couldn't find any information here https://docs.infra.centos.org/operations/ci/upgrades/upgrade-jenkins/

Any pointers would be of great help.

Thank you,
Pragadee

Hi @psathyan .

Well, in fact we asked all CI tenants last year to do that, and follow one procedure (see https://lists.centos.org/hyperkitty/list/ci-users@lists.centos.org/thread/3C5E6BJWOCPWZQU55UA6XLA3X2OIRWPN/)

Basically :

oc edit dc/jenkins
replace "name: jenkins:2" with "name:jenkins:scheduled-upgrade-redeploy"

You can also do that yourself through openshift console (ui) if you prefer :
https://console-openshift-console.apps.ocp.cloud.ci.centos.org/k8s/ns/nfs-ganesha/deploymentconfigs/jenkins/yaml

PS : it seems that you even have jenkins:latest instead of jenkins:2 so you know what to modify.
Let us if that works for you but more interested about why you never applied (you or someone else in the team) instructions sent to ci-users list .. are all members of nfs-ganesha subscribed at least that crucial list where we send announces like this ?

Thanks @arrfab

I was able to upgrade the Jenkins instance by following your instructions. Sadly, I was not subscribed to the mailing list (have now).

We are now at 2.479.3 and should be able to pick the newer images as and when they are available.

Please mark this request as resolved. Thank you.
