Nesta página, descrevemos as etapas para atualizar e corrigir seu dispositivo isolado do Google Distributed Cloud (GDC).
Preparação para o upgrade
Verifique se você atende aos requisitos listados nesta seção antes do upgrade.
Antes de começar
Revise os pré-requisitos do laptop para garantir que o dispositivo usado para atualizações e
upgrades de patch atenda às especificações físicas e a outros requisitos.
Primeiro, conclua as seguintes ações relacionadas às ferramentas de interface de linha de comando (CLI) gdcloud:
Copie a atualização para o ambiente isolado usando o drive USB.
Copie o script de download e o diretório gdch que você baixou para o pen drive na etapa 1 para a máquina de upgrade no ambiente isolado.
Na máquina de upgrade, verifique o conteúdo e extraia os arquivos usando as mesmas informações usadas para baixar o pacote. Por exemplo, o código a seguir copia o pacote para o diretório /root.
Para autenticar com o provedor de identidade configurado e solicitar um arquivo kubeconfig para sua identidade de usuário e cluster, consulte Autenticar.
Executa as verificações de simulação na máquina de upgrade.
Executa as verificações de simulação para o armazenamento do OTS.
Envia os artefatos para o registro de artefatos.
Faz upgrade do software e do firmware do dispositivo, incluindo:
Cluster de administrador raiz do GDC.
Serviços do GDC.
Os sistemas operacionais (SOs) dos nós físicos e virtuais.
O interruptor.
Armazenamento
O comando faz as atualizações em sequência e aguarda a conclusão de cada etapa. Depois de concluir as etapas e se o upgrade for bem-sucedido, você verá uma mensagem semelhante a esta:

[Download](/distributed-cloud/hosted/docs/latest/appliance/resources/gdcloud-download) the `gdcloud` CLI tools.\n2. [Install](/distributed-cloud/hosted/docs/latest/appliance/resources/gdcloud-install) the `gdcloud` CLI tools.\n3. [Upgrade](/distributed-cloud/hosted/docs/latest/appliance/resources/gdcloud-upgrade) the `gdcloud` CLI tools as required.\n4. Ensure the [`docker-credential-gdcloud`](/distributed-cloud/hosted/docs/latest/appliance/infrastructure/io-operations-30/push-container-image#before-you-begin) is present.\n\n### Transfer the artifacts to the upgrade machine\n\nYou must have access to the Cloud Storage bucket.\n\nFollow these steps to transfer the artifacts to the laptop you use for the update and patch upgrades:\n\n1. Download the package based on the selected patch version:\n\n VERSION=\u003cx.x.x-gdch.yyy\u003e\n RELEASE_SUFFIX=\"_te\"\n DOWNLOADER=gdch-downloader-prod${RELEASE_SUFFIX}-$VERSION.sh\n gcloud storage cp \"gs://$GCS_BUCKET/$VERSION/$DOWNLOADER\" .\n gcloud storage cp \"gs://$GCS_BUCKET/$VERSION/${DOWNLOADER}.sig\" .\n\n PUBLIC_KEY=$(cat \u003c\u003c-PUBEND\n -----BEGIN PUBLIC KEY-----\n MFkwEwYHKoZIzj0CAQYIKoZIzj0DAQcDQgAEn46iVSyFXsvuKLZ4dVOr2AqlXDnR\n 5cKztkpraexHDxn/ozq03EvrdkRmZkSACFfcaEFyitpraidgAx8sPjvzXQ==\n -----END PUBLIC KEY-----\n PUBEND\n )\n echo \"${PUBLIC_KEY}\" \u003e \"key.pub\"\n DOWNLOADER=gdch-downloader-${PRODUCT}-$VERSION.sh\n\n gcloud storage cp \"gs://${GCS_BUCKET:-private-cloud-release}/$VERSION/$DOWNLOADER*\" .\n openssl dgst -sha256 -verify \"key.pub\" -signature \"${DOWNLOADER}.sig\" ${DOWNLOADER} && chmod +x $DOWNLOADER && ./$DOWNLOADER --skip-unzip\n\n This command fetches the update package and the downloader script to the current directory, for example, `/home/download`.\n2. Run `tree -L 3 /home/download`.\n\n Example output: \n\n /home/download\n ├── gdch\n │ └── x.x.x-gdch.x\n │ ├── bootstrapper\n │ │ ├── bootstrapper.iso\n │ │ └── bootstrapper.iso.sig\n │ ├── gdch-prod_te-x.x.x-gdch.x-sbom.tar.gz\n │ ├── gdch-prod_te-x.x.x-gdch.x-sbom.tar.gz.sig\n │ ├── prod_te_gdch.tar.gz\n │ └── prod_te_gdch.tar.gz.sig\n ├── gdch-downloader-prod_te-x.x.x-gdch.x.sh\n ├── gdch-downloader-prod_te-x.x.x-gdch.x.sh.1.sig\n ├── gdch-downloader-prod_te-x.x.x-gdch.x.sh.sig\n └── key.pub\n\n3. Copy the update to the air-gapped environment, using your USB drive.\n\n Copy both the downloader script and the `gdch` directory that you downloaded to your USB drive in [step 1](#download-pkg-step) to the upgrade machine in the air-gapped environment.\n4. In the upgrade machine, verify the contents and extract the files using the same information you used to download the package. For example, the following code copies the package to the `/root` directory.\n\n Unpack the package: \n\n VERSION=x.x.x-gdch.x\n PRODUCT=prod_te\n DOWNLOADER=gdch-downloader-${PRODUCT}-$VERSION.sh\n openssl dgst -sha256 -verify \"key.pub\" -signature \"${DOWNLOADER}.sig\" ${DOWNLOADER} && chmod +x $DOWNLOADER && ./$DOWNLOADER --skip-download\n\n The package is unpacked at the `/root/gdch/full-release-x.x.x-gdch.x` path.\n5. Confirm that the version matches the one that you set in VERSION:\n\n /root/gdch/full-release-x.x.x-gdch.x/gdcloud version\n\n Sample output: \n\n gdcloud version: 1.14.4-gdch.0\n\n | **Note:** From here on, all CLI commands must use the gdcloud binary from the recently downloaded artifacts.\n\nAuthenticate\n------------\n\nTo authenticate with your configured identity provider and request a kubeconfig file for your user identity and cluster, see [Authenticate](/distributed-cloud/hosted/docs/latest/appliance/resources/gdcloud-auth).\n\n1. [Sign in](/distributed-cloud/hosted/docs/latest/appliance/platform/pa-user/iam/sign-in) and request the following [roles](/distributed-cloud/hosted/docs/latest/appliance/platform/pa-user/iam/set-up-role-bindings#gdcloud):\n\n - Upgrade Appliance Admin\n - System Artifact Management Admin\n - System Artifact Management Secrets Admin\n - DNS Suffix Viewer\n - System Artifact Registry Monitor\n2. Configure the docker:\n\n gdcloud auth configure-docker\n\nStart the upgrade\n-----------------\n\nGo through the following steps to start the appliance upgrade: \n\n gdcloud appliance upgrade \n\nSee [`gdcloud appliance upgrade`](/distributed-cloud/hosted/docs/latest/appliance/resources/gdcloud-reference/gdcloud-appliance-upgrade) for more information.\n\nThe command runs the following steps:\n\n1. Runs the preflight checks on the upgrade machine.\n2. Runs the preflight checks for OTS storage\n3. Pushes the artifacts to the artifact registry.\n4. Upgrades the appliance software and firmware, including:\n 1. GDC root-admin cluster.\n 2. GDC services.\n 3. The operating systems (OSes) of physical and virtual nodes.\n 4. The switch.\n 5. Storage\n\nThe command drives the updates in sequence, and waits for each step to complete. After completing the steps and if the upgrade is successful, you see a message similar to the following: \n\n The GDC appliance upgrade completed successfully"]]
