Update Parameters in the CR File or Deployment

If you need to do some customization in the CR file or in the operator deployment, check the following sections.

Update Parameters in the CR File​

The custom resource (CR) should be on the cluster under CRD digitalaireleases.xlr.digital.ai (or digitalaireleaseocps.xlrocp.digital.ai for OpenShift)

❯ kubectl get crd
NAME                                             CREATED AT
...
digitalaireleases.xlr.digital.ai                 2022-06-20T12:35:09Z
...

❯ kubectl get digitalaireleases.xlr.digital.ai -n digitalai
NAME                 AGE
dai-xlr              4h33m

You can change the CR dai-xlr by editing the CR on the cluster, for example

❯ kubectl edit digitalaireleases.xlr.digital.ai dai-xlr -n digitalai

Or you can edit the file that was used during installation, for example digitalai-release/kubernetes/dairelease_cr.yaml:

❯ kubectl apply -f digitalai-release/kubernetes/dairelease_cr.yaml -n digitalai

Or you can do a merge patch to update some part of the CR (for example, update context root):

❯ kubectl patch -n digitalai digitalaireleases.xlr.digital.ai dai-xlr \
  --type=merge --patch '{"spec": {"appContextRoot": "/xlr-root"}}'

After changes are applied on the cluster, if the parameters are related to the release pods you need to restart release statefulset:

❯ kubectl rollout restart dai-xlr-digitalai-release -n digitalai

Update Parameters in the Operator Deployment​

The operator deployment should be on the cluster in the namespace with name xlr-operator-controller-manager:

❯ kubectl get deployment -n digitalai
NAME                                                          READY   UP-TO-DATE   AVAILABLE   AGE
dai-xlr-1234567890-nginx-ingress-controller                   1/1     1            1           4h8m
dai-xlr-1234567890-nginx-ingress-controller-default-backend   1/1     1            1           4h8m
xlr-operator-controller-manager                               1/1     1            1           3d5h

By changing that resource, you can update:

  • the version of the operator image (do this only in case that you know there are no major changes in the operator image, contact support)
  • update operator resources under the path spec.template.spec.containers[1].resources

You can change the deployment xlr-operator-controller-manager by editing the deployment on the cluster, for example

❯ kubectl edit deployment xlr-operator-controller-manager -n digitalai

Or you can edit the file that was used during installation, for example digitalai-release/kubernetes/template/deployment.yaml:

❯ kubectl apply -f digitalai-release/kubernetes/template/deployment.yaml -n digitalai

Or you can do a merge patch to update some part of the deployment (for example, update the operator image):

❯ kubectl patch -n digitalai deployment xlr-operator-controller-manager \
  --type='json' --patch '[{"op": "replace", "path": "/spec/template/spec/containers/1/image", "value": "xebialabs/deploy-operator:23.3.1"}]'

After changes are applied on the cluster, there should be also visible and the deployment will automatically restart.
