View previously deployed values
In this example we save the values in file: platform
_values.txt
.
Check so that your namespace is available. $ helm list --namespace <namespace> Example: $ helm list --namespace user1 NAME NAMESPACE REVISION UPDATED STATUS CHART APP VERSION platpod user1 2 2020-09-01 14:57:55.458292074 +0200 CEST deployed usage-engine-private-edition-10.1.0-release-20200824070905.1566f6c 10.1.0 Save the installed values to a file, in the case you need them later in the upgrade. $ helm get values <release_platform> -a --namespace <namespace> > platform_values.txt
Editing the new values.yaml file
View the contents of the installed values.yaml file. Either if you have access to the already installed values.yaml file or look at the platform_values.txt file explained above:
- cat <current installation> usage-engine-private-edition / values.yaml
Edit and update the new installation's values.yaml file with the site unique values, that you find in the installed values.yaml file.
- Do NOT change the image tags in the new values.yaml file.
Check the Release Notes for any special considerations concerning the new values.yaml file. Update them accordingly.

Parameters to check
Make sure the Helm chart is defined for on-premise (Private cloud) by viewing the file: usage-engine-private-edition / values.yaml
$ cat usage-engine-private-edition/values.yaml | grep environment: # Only on-premise and aws supported for now environment: on-premise
Make sure the new tags are pointing at the new image by viewing the file: usage-engine-private-edition / values.yaml
$ cat usage-engine-private-edition/values.yaml | grep tag:
Persistent Storage is required for a possible downgrade
To be prepared for a possible downgrade later, make sure that you have defined Persistent Storage prior to the upgrade. Persistent Storage is mandatory to be able to perform a downgrade.
