Updating k3OS

If there version of k3OS is too old for the newer version of the United Manufacturing Hub, you should update it.

It is important to keep your k3OS installation up to date in order to take advantage of the latest features and security updates and for the United Manufacturing Hub cloud-init file to run smoothly. Here are the instructions for updating your k3OS installation.

Checking your Current Version

To check which version of k3OS you are currently running, use the following command via SSH:

k3s -v

Untitled

Upgrading to the Latest Version

To upgrade to the latest recommended version of k3OS, use the following command via SSH:

kubectl label nodes -l k3os.io/mode k3os.io/upgrade=latest

This process may take a while and require a reboot. Once it is complete, you will need to fetch your credentials again using the cat command, as the upgrade may change from using username and password to using certificates.
