Steps to upgrade DKP via CLI
Before you begin the upgrade, ensure you review the Upgrade Prerequisites.
This section describes how to upgrade your DKP clusters to the latest DKP version in an Enterprise, multi-cluster, environment. The DKP upgrade represents an important step of your environment’s lifecycle, as it ensures that you are up-to-date with the latest features and can benefit from the most recent improvements, enhanced cluster management, and better performance. If you are on this scenario of the upgrade section of documentation, you have an Enterprise License. For an Essential license, refer to the DKP Upgrade Essential section instead.
Ensure that all platform applications in the management cluster have been upgraded to avoid compatibility issues with the Kubernetes version included in this release. This is done automatically when upgrading Kommander, so ensure that you follow these sections in order to upgrade the Kommander component prior to upgrading the Konvoy component.
