kubeadm upgrade phase

In v1.15.0, kubeadm introduced preliminary support for kubeadm upgrade node phases. Phases for other kubeadm upgrade sub-commands such as apply, could be added in the following releases.

kubeadm upgrade node phase

Using this phase you can choose to execute the separate steps of the upgrade of secondary control-plane or worker nodes. Please note that kubeadm upgrade apply still has to be called on a primary control-plane node.

Use this command to invoke single phase of the node workflow

--rootfs string
[EXPERIMENTAL] The path to the 'real' host root filesystem.

Synopsis

Download the kubelet configuration from a ConfigMap of the form "kubelet-config-1.X" in the cluster, where X is the minor version of the kubelet. kubeadm uses the KuberneteVersion field in the kubeadm-config ConfigMap to determine what the desired kubelet version is.
