Upgrading AKS using Terraform
Summary: In this post I'll show you how to upgrade your AKS cluster using Terraform.
Date: 23 February 2025
Before we can start doing an upgrade, it's always good to gather some information about the current state of the cluster, as well as information about the new version and possible problems we might run into. Let's start with some links to the release notes and such and then continue with some commands to gather information.
It is also important to know, that when following this post, we will upgrade the following components in this order:
- Backplanes
- System nodepool
- User nodepool

By default, AIX does have an option to unzip .zip files, it's just a little bit hidden. Normally one would use 'unzip' but that's not available by default. You can install it as a rpm, but that's not necessary. Java is installed by default and is also capable of unzipping .zip files, with these simple steps:
- Add the java utilities directory to your path
- Unzip the file using jar
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/java5/bin jar -xvf zipfile.zip
That's all!
