Upgrade and maintenance
PerfectScale delivers its services through agents like the PSC Exporter and PSC AutoScaler. To continuously analyze your environment, provide recommendations, and execute automation on your clusters, it's essential to have the relevant agent installed.
As part of regular upgrade and maintenance, we recommend rerunning the provisioner every three months. This guarantees that your deployment remains up to date with the latest version and configuration changes. If you're running an on-premise environment, please contact PerfectScale support through either Slack or email so that we can provide you with the needed resources for the upgrade, including:
The most recent version of the PerfectScale provisioner
The most recent version of the PerfectScale provisioner configuration
You need to run the provisioner against the on-premises cluster configuration, selecting the same kubeconfig
and kubecontext
to connect to the original cluster in the provisioner configuration. The provisioner will upgrade needed components.
With the new version, you’ll also have access to download the SBOMs for all components associated with the release.
