Uyuni Proxy Upgrade
Before running the upgrade command, it is required to update the host operating system.
Updating the host operating system will also result in the update of the Uyuni tooling such as the mgrpxy tool.
Refresh software repositories with
zypper:zypper refApply available updates with
transactional-update:transactional-updateIf updates were applied,
reboot.The Uyuni Proxy containers running on
podmancan be updated using the following command:mgrpxy upgrade podmanOr, those running on a Kubernetes cluster can update using:
mgrpxy upgrade kubernetesOn podman, clean up the unused container images to free disk space:
podman image prune -aOn Kubernetes the image cleanup is handled automatically, or it depends on the Kubernetes distribution. ``
In some upgrades, multiple
*.rpmnewand*.rpmsavefiles may be generated. The presence or number of these files does not indicate that manual action is required. In SUSE Multi-Linux Manager container environments, required configuration changes are applied automatically during the upgrade process. These files are created as a result of differences between packaged defaults and existing configuration files, and may also include internal or informational changes that are not intended to be merged. If manual action is required for a configuration change, it will be explicitly documented in the release notes or upgrade documentation.Do not treat these files as a post-upgrade checklist or merge them in bulk. Only review a file if you are actively troubleshooting a specific issue and understand the impact of the configuration it contains. If a change is required, it should be applied intentionally based on a known requirement, not by copying differences from these files. If you are unsure, leave the file unchanged.

If you do not specify the tag parameter when upgrading to specific version, it will default to upgrading to the most recent version. To upgrade to a specific version, provide the tag parameter with the desired image tag. |
|
We highly recommend using the same tag for all proxy containers to ensure consistency under normal circumstances. |
For air-gapped installations, first upgrade the container RPM packages, then run the mgrpxy upgrade podman command.
