This runbook explains how to upgrade a running KUDO Kafka to a newer version of KUDO Kafka.
- Kubernetes cluster with KUDO version >= 0.11.0 installed
- Have a KUDO Kafka cluster version 1.2.0 up and running in the namespace
kudo-kafka
- Have binaries of
jq
andgrep
installed in the$PATH
Verify the KUDO Kafka instance object is present in the expected namespace
kubectl get instances -n kudo-kafka
expected output are the KUDO Instance objects present in the namespace kudo-kafka
:
NAME AGE
kafka 71m
zk 130m
kubectl kudo plan status --instance=kafka -n kudo-kafka
expected output is the plan status for instance kafka
:
Plan(s) for "kafka" in namespace "kudo-kafka":
.
└── kafka (Operator-Version: "kafka-1.2.0" Active-Plan: "deploy")
├── Plan deploy (serial strategy) [COMPLETE], last updated 2020-04-23 13:13:30
│ └── Phase deploy-kafka (serial strategy) [COMPLETE]
│ └── Step deploy [COMPLETE]
├── Plan mirrormaker (serial strategy) [NOT ACTIVE]
│ └── Phase deploy-mirror-maker (serial strategy) [NOT ACTIVE]
│ └── Step deploy [NOT ACTIVE]
└── Plan not-allowed (serial strategy) [NOT ACTIVE]
└── Phase not-allowed (serial strategy) [NOT ACTIVE]
└── Step not-allowed [NOT ACTIVE]

From step 1 we know the name of KUDO Kafka instance is kafka
. We can get the Operator Version of the KUDO Kafka Instance.
kubectl get instance kafka -n kudo-kafka -o json | jq -r '.spec.operatorVersion.name'
expected output is the operator version
kafka-1.2.0
kubectl get operatorversions -n kudo-kafka
expected output is the list the operator versions installed in the namespace kudo-kafka
NAME AGE
kafka-1.2.0 4m51s
zookeeper-0.3.0 5m39s
Get the inter.broker.protocol.version
version in the instance.
kubectl exec -ti kafka-kafka-2 -n kudo-kafka -c k8skafka -- cat /opt/kafka/server.properties | grep inter.broker.protocol.version
expected output is the inter.broker.protocol.version
inter.broker.protocol.version=2.1
The inter.broker.protocol.version
should match with the app minor version
kubectl get operatorversion -n kudo-kafka kafka-1.2.0 -o json | jq -r '.spec.appVersion'
in this case the expected output is the Kafka version
2.4.0
If inter.broker.protocol.version
already matches the app version, skip to step 7.
kubectl kudo update -n kudo-kafka --instance=kafka -p INTER_BROKER_PROTOCOL_VERSION=2.4
expected output is confirmation that instance has been updated.
Instance kafka was updated.
Repeat the step 5 to confirm that now the inter.broker.protocol.version
is matching app version.
Install the OperatorVersion to what we are upgrading using the skip-instance
flag. If the new OperatorVersion is already installed you can skip to the step 7.
kubectl kudo install kafka -n kudo-kafka --operator-version=1.2.1 --skip-instance
expected output is the CRDs installed for the OperatorVersion
operatorversion.kudo.dev/v1beta1/kafka-1.2.1 created
kubectl get operatorversions -n kudo-kafka
expected output is the list the operator versions installed in the namespace kudo-kafka
NAME AGE
kafka-1.2.0 13m
kafka-1.2.1 42s
zookeeper-0.3.0 13m
kubectl kudo upgrade kafka --instance=kafka --operator-version=1.2.1 -n kudo-kafka
expected output is the confirmation that instance kafka has been updated
instance.kudo.dev/v1beta1/kafka updated
check the plan status
kubectl kudo plan status --instance=kafka -n kudo-kafka
expected output should show deploy
in progress and the Operator-Version
to be kafka-1.2.1

Once the pods are ready, which can be checked using next command
kubectl get pods -n kudo-kafka
the expected output is the list of the pods
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
kafka-kafka-0 2/2 Running 0 2m47s
kafka-kafka-1 2/2 Running 0 3m28s
kafka-kafka-2 2/2 Running 0 4m14s
Once the are passing the both readiness and liveness checks the plan should be complete
kubectl kudo plan status --instance=kafka -n kudo-kafka
expected output should show the deploy
plan complete and the Operator-Version
to be kafka-1.2.0

kubectl logs kafka-kafka-0 -c k8skafka -n kudo-kafka | grep "Kafka version:"
The expected output is the Kafka version and that should be the upgraded version 2.4.1
[2020-04-23 07:58:00,246] INFO Kafka version: 2.4.1 (org.apache.kafka.common.utils.AppInfoParser)
kubectl get pods kafka-kafka-0 -n kudo-kafka -o json | jq -r '.spec.containers[].image'
The expected output will show the container images used by the KUDO Kafka pods. The mesosphere/kafka
image should be the upgraded version 2.4.1-1.2.1
quay.io/prometheus/node-exporter:v0.18.1
mesosphere/kafka:2.4.1-1.2.1
kubectl get instances.kudo.dev kafka -n kudo-kafka -o json | jq -r .spec.operatorVersion.name | xargs kubectl get operatorversion -n kudo-kafka -o json | jq -r .spec.appVersion
The expected output should be the app version specified in the operator version of the instance
2.4.1
kubectl kudo update --instance=kafka -n kudo-kafka -p INTER_BROKER_PROTOCOL_VERSION=2.4
Custom upgrade plans by KUDO would help to automate steps of verifying the inter.broker.protocol.version
and bumping it to match the current version.
