🆙 UPGRADE

To upgrade from a previous installation of the StackGres operator's helm chart you will have to upgrade the helm chart release. For more detailed information please refer to our documentation.

To upgrade StackGres operator's (upgrade only works starting from 1.1 version or above) helm chart issue the following commands (replace namespace and release name if you used something different):

helm upgrade -n "stackgres" "stackgres-operator" https://stackgres.io/downloads/stackgres-k8s/stackgres/1.7.0-rc1/helm/stackgres-operator.tgz

IMPORTANT: This release is incompatible with previous alpha or beta versions. Upgrading from those versions will require uninstalling completely StackGres including all clusters and StackGres CRDs (those in stackgres.io group) first.

Thank you for all the issues created, ideas, and code contributions by the StackGres Community!
