# Upgrade

## RedHat OpenShift

OpenShift updates are delivered directly through the Operator Lifecycle Manager framework.

To upgrade from **4.0.x** to **5.0.x**, the cluster administrator must switch the subscription channel from `4.0.x` to `5.0.x` via the **Subscription** tab in the OpenShift Console. Once the channel is updated, the upgrade process will proceed based on the configured **approval strategy** (automatic or manual).

When installing the Trilio Operator, the cluster admin can specify how to update via an approval strategy - either manual or automatic.

A manual subscription will require manually approving the new update that is available. An automatic subscription will automatically update the application when an update is available.

## Upstream Kubernetes

For Upstream or non-OpenShift environments, Trilio provides its own Operator for installing and managing instances of Trilio for Kubernetes. Follow the steps below to upgrade the operator

1. Find the helm repository for Trilio Manager using the following command:

```
prafull@EMPID18004:~$ helm repo list
NAME    	URL
signtest	http://127.0.0.1:43961
tvm     	http://charts.k8strilio.net/trilio-stable/k8s-triliovault-operator
```

2\. Update your repo to receive the latest updates:

```
prafull@EMPID18004:~$ helm repo update
Hang tight while we grab the latest from your chart repositories...
...Successfully got an update from the "tvm" chart repository
Update Complete. ⎈ Happy Helming!⎈
```

3\. Update your upstream operator:

```
prafull@EMPID18004:~$ helm ls
NAME           	NAMESPACE	REVISION	UPDATED                                	STATUS  	CHART                          	APP VERSION

prafull@EMPID18004:~$ helm upgrade trilio-operator tvm/k8s-triliovault-operator
Release "trilio-operator" has been upgraded. Happy Helming!
NAME: trilio-operator
LAST DEPLOYED: Wed Jan 13 18:51:28 2021
NAMESPACE: default
STATUS: deployed
REVISION: 2
TEST SUITE: None
NOTES:
To verify that Trilio Operator has started, run:


  kubectl --namespace=default get deployments -l "release=trilio-operator"

prafull@EMPID18004:~$ helm ls
NAME           	NAMESPACE	REVISION	UPDATED                                	STATUS  	CHART                          	APP VERSION
