Verify the upgrade completed successfully

Verify that all OpenShift Dev Spaces components are running the new version and that the platform is functional so that you can confirm the upgrade succeeded before notifying developers.

Before you begin

Procedure

  1. Verify that the OpenShift Dev Spaces Operator CSV shows the expected version and Succeeded phase: 
    $ oc get csv -n openshift-devspaces -o custom-columns='NAME:.metadata.name,PHASE:.status.phase,VERSION:.spec.version'

    Expected output:

    NAME                        PHASE       VERSION
devspacesoperator.v3.29.0   Succeeded   3.29.0
  2. Verify that the CheCluster custom resource reports Active phase and the correct version: 
    $ oc get checluster devspaces -n openshift-devspaces -o jsonpath='Phase: {.status.chePhase}, Version: {.status.cheVersion}'

    Expected output:

    Phase: Active, Version: 3.29.0
  3. Verify that all OpenShift Dev Spaces pods in the openshift-devspaces namespace are running and ready: 
    $ oc get pods -n openshift-devspaces

    All pods should show Running status with all containers ready.

  4. Verify that the OpenShift Dev Spaces dashboard is accessible: 
    $ oc get checluster devspaces -n openshift-devspaces -o jsonpath='{.status.cheURL}'

    Open the returned URL in a browser and confirm the login page loads.

  5. Verify that the Dev Workspace Operator is running the expected version: 
    $ oc get csv -n openshift-operators -o custom-columns='NAME:.metadata.name,PHASE:.status.phase' | grep devworkspace

    The Dev Workspace Operator CSV should show Succeeded phase.

  6. Start a test workspace from the OpenShift Dev Spaces dashboard to confirm that workspaces function correctly after the upgrade.
