CircleCI server v3.x upgrade guide
Server v3.x Server Admin Upgrading your server v3.x installation requires that you have access to the Kubernetes cluster in which server is installed, and have an instance of KOTS Admin Console running.
Before upgrading, ensure you have set up Backup and Restore.
A successful deployment will update the UI. Unless noted in the release notes, updates are rolling updates and there is no downtime.
| We recommend that you do not skip releases. |
