What Do I Do If a Containerized Application Fails to Be Upgraded?

Symptom

A containerized application is upgraded on the IEF console, but the application is not upgraded on the edge node where it is deployed. Therefore, the upgrade fails.

Fault Locating

Troubleshooting methods are sorted based on the occurrence probability of the possible causes. You are advised to check the possible causes from high probability to low probability to quickly locate the cause of the problem.

Figure 1 Fault locating

1. Possible cause 1: The upgrade message is not delivered. In this case, restart edgecore. For details, see Restarting edgecore.
2. Possible cause 2: The node network is unstable, and the application is in the Terminating state. In this case, delete the application from the IEF console and create the application again.
3. Possible cause 3: The upgrade is triggered after the deletion previously triggered on the application side fails. In this case, delete the application from the IEF console and create the application again.

Restarting edgecore

Log in to the edge node, and run the following command to restart the edgecore process:

systemctl restart edgecore
