Cohesity Cloud Scale Technology Manual Deployment Guide for Kubernetes Clusters

Migrating the cloud node for primary or media servers

You can migrate the following respective cloud node for primary or media servers:

  • (AKS-specific) node pool

  • (EKS-specific) node group

To migrate the cloud node for primary or media servers

  1. Run the following command:

    helm upgrade cloudscale cloudscale.tgz -n <namespace>--reuse-values --set environment.primary.nodeSelector.labelKey=<NewKey> --set environment.primary.nodeSelector.labelValue=<NewKey>

  2. Change the node selector labelKey and lableValue to new values for primary/media server.
  3. Save the environment CR.

This will change the statefulset for respective NetBackup server replica to 0 for respective server. This will terminate the pods. After successful migration, statefulset replicas will be set to original value.

Note:

If you migrate any component (Primary Server, Media Server, MSDP, or cpdata) to a new node pool with different labels, ensure that you update the corresponding key and value fields in the tolerations section of the fluentbit chart/YAML file. For more information, refer to the 'Fluentbit DaemonSet configuration variables' table in the following section:

See Parameters for logging (fluentbit).
