Hi Amy,

Many thanks for this, pleased to know that it is doable :) - We will test this on our dev environment first to see if there are any issues or not.

Will be sure to join the #openstack-ansible channel if we get stuck.

Thanks again,

Grant

Hi Grant,

We actually have the process documented here:

https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/osa-newton-xenial-upgrade

It does make a few assumptions so make sure you meet them before starting. Please join us on Freenode in the #openstack-ansible channel and we'll give you a hand if we can.

Thanks,

Amy (spotz)

    Hi All,

    Just have a quick question regarding upgrading from Newton to
    Ocata using OSA. We have a small installation ( 4 compute. 3
    management, 2 network and some Ceph storage nodes ) And we are
    looking to upgrade from Ubuntu 14.04 Newton to Ubuntu 16.04  Ocata.

    Does anyone have any good tips on how to do this at all? We are
    not sure whether it is best to decommission a single node at a
    time, upgrade that to Ubuntu 16.04 and then get Ocata installed
    onto that. Or whether there is a better method at all?

    We are conscious that if we bootstrap our ansible deployer machine
    for Ocata, it will then not be able to manage the nodes that are
    running 14.04 Newton we assume?

    Another thing we were thinking was to possibly get some more kit
    and just install Ocata from scratch on that and start to migrate
    customers over, but again we assume would need a separate deployer
    to do so?.

    We would prefer to be able to upgrade both the OS for Ubuntu and
    Openstack to Ocata using our current set up and just wondered if
    this was even possible with OSA? Unfortunately we do not have the
    budget to simply keep on getting more and more kit, so we have to
    be quite tactile about how we do things.

    We are going to test this on our dev environment and see what
    breaks, but just wondered if anyone here has come across this
    already and suffered the pain :)

    Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

    Many thanks,
