+title: Upgrading kubeadm clusters from 1.7 to 1.8
+---
+
+{% capture overview %}
+
+This guide is for upgrading `kubeadm` clusters from version 1.7.x to 1.8.x, as well as 1.7.x to 1.7.y and 1.8.x to 1.8.y where `y > x`.
+See also [upgrading kubeadm clusters from 1.6 to 1.7](/docs/tasks/administer-cluster/kubeadm-upgrade-1-7/) if you're on a 1.6 cluster currently.
+
+{% endcapture %}
+
+{% capture prerequisites %}
+
+Before proceeding:
+
+- You need to have a functional `kubeadm` Kubernetes cluster running version 1.7.0 or higher in order to use the process described here.
+- Make sure you read the [release notes](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md#v180-beta1) carefully.
+- As `kubeadm upgrade` does not upgrade etcd make sure to back it up. You can, for example, use `etcdctl backup` to take care of this.
+- Note that `kubeadm upgrade` will not touch any of your workloads, only Kubernetes-internal components. As a best-practice you should back up what's important to you. For example, any app-level state, such as a database an app might depend on (like MySQL or MongoDB) must be backed up beforehand.
+
+Also, note that only one minor version upgrade is supported. That is, you can only upgrade from, say 1.7 to 1.8, not from 1.7 to 1.9.
+
+{% endcapture %}
+
+{% capture steps %}
+
+## Upgrading your control plane
+
+You have to carry out the following steps by executing these commands on your master node:
+
+1. Install the most recent version of `kubeadm` using `curl` like so:
+
+```shell
+$ export VERSION=v1.8.0 # or any given released Kubernetes version
+$ export ARCH=amd64 # or: arm, arm64, ppc64le, s390x
+$ curl -sSL https://dl.k8s.io/release/${VERSION}/bin/linux/${ARCH}/kubeadm > /usr/bin/kubeadm
+```
+
+2. If this the first time you use `kubeadm upgrade`, in order to preserve the configuration for future upgrades, do:
+
+Note that for below you will need to recall what CLI args you passed to `kubeadm init` the first time.
+
+If you used flags, do:
+
+```shell
+$ kubeadm config upload from-flags [flags]
+```
+
+Where `flags` can be empty.
+
+If you used a config file, do:
+
+```shell
+$ kubeadm config upload from-file --config [config]
+```
+
+Where the `config` is mandatory.
+
+3. On the master node, run the following:
+
+```shell
+$ kubeadm upgrade plan
+[preflight] Running pre-flight checks
+[upgrade] Making sure the cluster is healthy:
+[upgrade/health] Checking API Server health: Healthy
+[upgrade/health] Checking Node health: All Nodes are healthy
+[upgrade/health] Checking Static Pod manifests exists on disk: All manifests exist on disk
+[upgrade/config] Making sure the configuration is correct:
+[upgrade/config] Reading configuration from the cluster...
+[upgrade/config] FYI: You can look at this config file with 'kubectl -n kube-system get cm kubeadm-config -oyaml'
+[upgrade] Fetching available versions to upgrade to:
+[upgrade/versions] Cluster version: v1.7.1
+[upgrade/versions] kubeadm version: v1.8.0
+[upgrade/versions] Latest stable version: v1.8.0
+[upgrade/versions] Latest version in the v1.7 series: v1.7.6
+
+Components that must be upgraded manually after you've upgraded the control plane with 'kubeadm upgrade apply':
+COMPONENT   CURRENT      AVAILABLE
+Kubelet     1 x v1.7.1   v1.7.6
+
+Upgrade to the latest version in the v1.7 series:

+Kube DNS             1.14.4    1.14.4
+
+You can now apply the upgrade by executing the following command:
+
+	kubeadm upgrade apply v1.7.6
+

+COMPONENT   CURRENT      AVAILABLE
+Kubelet     1 x v1.7.1   v1.8.0
+
+Upgrade to the latest experimental version:
+

+Kube DNS             1.14.4    1.14.4
+
+You can now apply the upgrade by executing the following command:
+
+	kubeadm upgrade apply v1.8.0
+
+Note: Before you do can perform this upgrade, you have to update kubeadm to v1.8.0
+
+_____________________________________________________________________
+```
+
+The `kubeadm upgrade plan` checks that your cluster is in an upgradeable state and fetches the versions available to upgrade to in an user-friendly way.
+
+4. Pick a version to upgrade to and run, for example, `kubeadm upgrade apply` as follows:
+
+```shell
+$ kubeadm upgrade apply v1.8.0
+[preflight] Running pre-flight checks
+[upgrade] Making sure the cluster is healthy:
+[upgrade/health] Checking API Server health: Healthy
+[upgrade/health] Checking Node health: All Nodes are healthy
+[upgrade/health] Checking Static Pod manifests exists on disk: All manifests exist on disk

+[upgrade/successful] SUCCESS! Your cluster was upgraded to "v1.8.0". Enjoy!

+[upgrade/kubelet] Now that your control plane is upgraded, please proceed with upgrading your kubelets in turn.
+```
+
+`kubeadm upgrade apply` does the following:
+
+- It checks that your cluster is in an upgradeable state, that is:
+  - The API Server is reachable,
+  - All nodes are in the `Ready` state, and
+  - The control plane is healthy
+- It enforces the version skew policies.
+- It makes sure the control plane images are available or available to pull to the machine.
+- It upgrades the control plane components or rollbacks if any of them fails to come up.
+- It applies the new `kube-dns` and `kube-proxy` manifests and enforces that all necessary RBAC rules are created.
+
+5. Manually upgrade your Software Defined Network (SDN).
+
+   Your Container Network Interface (CNI) provider might have its own upgrade instructions to follow now.
+   Check the [addons](/docs/concepts/cluster-administration/addons/) page to
+   find your CNI provider and see if there are additional upgrade steps
+   necessary.
+
+## Upgrading your worker nodes
+
+For each worker node (referred to as `$WORKER` below) in your cluster, upgrade `kubelet` by executing the following commands:
+
+1. Prepare the node for maintenance, marking it unschedulable and evicting the workload:
+
+```shell
+$ kubectl cordon $WORKER
+$ kubectl drain $WORKER
+```
+
+2. Upgrade the `kubelet` version on the `$WORKER` node by using a Linux distribution-specific package manager:
+
+If the node is running a Debian-based distro such as Ubuntu, run:
+
+```shell
+$ apt-get update
+$ apt-get install -y kubelet
+```
+
+If the node is running CentOS or the like, run:
+
+```shell
+$ yum update
+$ yum install -y kubelet
+```
+
+Now the new version of the `kubelet` should be running on the `$WORKER` node. Verify this using the following command:
+
+```shell
+$ systemctl status kubelet
+```
+
+3. Bring the `$WORKER` node back online by marking it schedulable:
+
+```shell
+$ kubectl uncordon $WORKER
+```
+
+4. After upgrading `kubelet` on each worker node in your cluster, verify that all nodes are available again by executing the following (from anywhere, for example, from outside the cluster):
+
+```shell
+$ kubectl get nodes
+```
+
+If the `STATUS` column of the above command shows `Ready` for all of your worker nodes, you are done.
+
+## Recovering from a bad state
+
+If `kubeadm upgrade` somehow fails and fails to roll back, due to an unexpected shutdown during execution for instance,
+you may run `kubeadm upgrade` again as it is idempotent and should eventually make sure the actual state is the desired state you are declaring.
+
+You can use `kubeadm upgrade` to change a running cluster with `x.x.x --> x.x.x` with `--force`, which can be used to recover from a bad state.
