What problem does it solve?

Rolling upgrades for Anton's Talos OS or Kubernetes are performed patch-by-patch with etcd quorum checks.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Per-node, serial upgrades: upgrade control planes first, then workers, with health gates between nodes.
  • OS and Kubernetes version bumps: bump talosVersion or kubernetesVersion pins in talos/talenv.yaml and re-render configs.
  • Safety workflows: pre-flight checks, etcd snapshots, health checks, and a clear rollback path for failed upgrades.
  • Use Case: You need to upgrade a three-node cluster from Talos v1.X to v1.Y while maintaining quorum and service health.

Quick Start

Bump the desired version pin in talos/talenv.yaml, re-render machine configs, and run the appropriate rolling upgrade workflow.
