Upgrade manifests for OSTree systems

To update resources while preserving data on OSTree-based MicroShift systems, you can create new manifests for changes and deletions and use the OSTree removal procedure for the delete directory.

Use the following procedure to remove some resources while retaining others to preserve data.

  2. Create a new manifest to apply in the manifest directories. See Using manifests example to create new manifests using the example.

  3. Create a new manifest for resource deletion to be placed in the delete subdirectories.

  4. Use the procedure in "Removing manifests for OSTree systems" to remove the manifests.
