Sonarqube upgrade from 10.6 community to 10.8.1 version

Dear SonarQube Community,

I am currently using SonarQube version 10.6 deployed on Kubernetes version 1.29.4. I came across the following two conflicting pieces of information:

  1. On the Artifact Hub page, it shows support for Kubernetes 1.29.4.
  2. However, the changelog mentions Kubernetes 1.30 as the supported version.

Could you please clarify which Kubernetes version is officially supported for SonarQube version 10.8.1?

Additionally, I want to confirm if upgrading from 10.6 to 10.8.1 is necessary in my scenario. Are there any critical bug fixes, performance improvements, or new features in 10.8.1 that make this upgrade advisable?

If upgrading is recommended, I would appreciate guidance on the steps to upgrade SonarQube using the Helm chart, specifically:

  1. Backing up existing configurations and data.
  2. Upgrading the Helm release while ensuring no downtime.
  3. Any additional precautions to consider during the upgrade.

Thank you for your time and support! I look forward to your response.

Best regards,
Tanish

Hey there.

ArtifactHub accurately reflects the currently supported Kubernetes versions. I’m not sure where you’re seeing 1.29.4

Supported Kubernetes Versions: From 1.24 to 1.31 Supported Openshift Versions: From 4.11 to 4.16

Only the very latest version of Community Build is supported. No other versions will receive bug/security fixes. You can find at these links the release notes for v10.7 and 24.12.0.100206.

Take note that the versioning scheme has changed for SonarQube Community Build (formerly Edition).

I suggest you first familiarize yourself with the documentation on Upgrading a Helm chart instance.
