Run these steps to upgrade to the latest release of Transaction Manager for Microservices Enterprise Edition only if you use Oracle Database to store the transaction logs in the previous release. Run these steps on Kubernetes clusters.

1. Grant privileges to create and run stored procedures to the data store user. Perform this task only if you use Oracle Database as the data store. See Grant Privilege to Run Stored Procedures.
2. Ensure that you have the following required privileges to perform this task if you are not a database administrator.
   • EXECUTE
   • INSERT
   • SELECT
   • UPDATE
   • DELETE
   • CREATE
   • ALTER

   MicroTx uses these privileges to handle the upgrade.

3. Download the files to install the latest release of MicroTx. See Download the Installation Bundle.

   Ensure that you do not overwrite the installer files for earlier versions of MicroTx.

   The latest image of the transaction coordinator is available at installation_directory/otmm-24.2/otmm/image/tmm-24.2.tgz. In the next steps, you will use this file to update the existing transaction coordinator image.

4. Load the transaction coordinator image to the local repository, tag the image, and then push the image. See Push Images to a Remote Docker Repository.
5. Create a copy of the values.yaml file and name it as values1.yaml. Update the values1.yaml file with the name of the latest transaction coordinator image in the repository. If you want to use the latest features, complete the required tasks to use these features, and then update the YAML file with the property values. See Configure the values.yaml File.
6. Update the property values for the Kubernetes init container in the tcs.yaml file, which is located at installation_directory/otmm-24.2/otmm/image/tcs.yaml. Use this file as a reference when you create your own Helm Chart to upgrade MicroTx. The following code snippet provides sample values. Provide the values based on your environment.

   {{- if .Values.tmmConfiguration.storage.db }}
         {{- if eq .Values.tmmConfiguration.storage.type "db" }}
         initContainers:
           - name : {{ printf "init-%s" .Values.tmmConfiguration.tmmAppName }}
             image: {{ .Values.tmmImage.image }}
             securityContext:
               runAsUser: 1337
             volumeMounts:
               - name: config-volume
                 mountPath: /etc/config
               {{- if .Values.tmmConfiguration.storage.db.walletConfigMap.configMapName }}
               - name: wallet-volume
                 mountPath: /etc/config/dbwallet
               {{- end }}
             env:
               - name: CONFIG_MAP_PATH
                 value: /etc/config
               - name: INIT_CONTAINER_ENABLED
                 value: "True"
               {{- if .Values.tmmConfiguration.storage.db.credentialSecretName }}
               - name: STORAGE_DB_CREDENTIAL
                 valueFrom:
                   secretKeyRef:
                     key: secret
                     name: {{ .Values.tmmConfiguration.storage.db.credentialSecretName }}
               {{- end }}
         {{- end }}
         {{- end }}

   Parameters	Description
   securityContext: runAsUser: 1337	When you use a Kubernetes init container with an Istio service mesh, the Kubernetes init container cannot send any outgoing network calls as Istio does not support it. To enable the Kubernetes init container to send outgoing network calls, you must specify the security context. See https://istio.io/latest/docs/setup/additional-setup/cni/#compatibility-with-application-init-containers.
   INIT_CONTAINER_ENABLED	Set this to True to enable the creation of a Kubernetes init container.

7. Run the following command to complete the upgrade.

   Syntax

   helm upgrade <release name> --namespace <namespace> <chart directory> --values <path_to_updated_values.yaml>

   The following sample command upgrades the MicroTx application named tmm-app in the otmm namespace.

   helm upgrade tmm-app --namespace otmm tmm/ --values tmm/ee/values1.yaml

   Where,

   • tmm-app is the name of the MicroTx application.
   • otmm is the namespace in Kubernetes cluster, where you have installed MicroTx.
   • installation_directory/otmm-24.2/otmm/helmcharts/tmm is the folder that contains the chart.yaml file for MicroTx.
   • installation_directory/otmm-24.2/otmm/helmcharts/tmm/ee/values1.yaml is the location of the values1.yaml file, the application's updated manifest file, in your local machine. This file contains the updated deployment configuration details for MicroTx.
