## Upgrade
2021-06-25 16:00:38 +00:00

2021-06-25 16:00:38 +00:00
- run ./scripts/upgrade_120.sh
- update the CFN stack for kube-control-plane
### Single node control plane
- will automatically be upgraded and the controller node replaced as part of the CFN update
### Clustered control plane
- replace controller instances one by one in no particular order
- once confirmed that the upgraded 1.20 control plane is working as expected update the clustered control plane CFN stack once more with `LBType: none` to remove the AWS NLB fronting the Kubernetes API which is not required anymore.

- replace worker nodes in a rolling fashion via. drain / terminate / rinse-repeat
