Delete the existing persistent-volume-directory-setup job

kubectl delete job persistent-volume-directory-setup -n lumenvox

Execute the Helm Upgrade command
#NOTE if the customer is specifying the image tag in their values.yaml file they need to ensure that they have updates it to the correct version. E.g. tag: “:7.”0

helm upgrade lumenvox lumenvox/lumenvox -f values.yaml -n lumenvox

Output example:

Release "lumenvox" has been upgraded. Happy Helming!
NAME: lumenvox
LAST DEPLOYED: Thu Feb 19 16:59:20 2026
NAMESPACE: lumenvox
STATUS: deployed
REVISION: 2
TEST SUITE: None

Helm Downgrade

Because of updates, this move from older versions to v7 should be considered a breaking change, since this impacts downgrades from v7 (and newer) to v6.x and older. The downgrade is possible and still supported, but needs to be done using the helm uninstall… and helm install… described in this article How to rollback from Version 7.0 to version 6.x .

Check the Helm revision to be used when and if needing to downgrade.

helm list -n lumenvox

Example output:

NAME            NAMESPACE       REVISION        UPDATED                                 STATUS          CHART           APP VERSION
lumenvox        lumenvox        4               2026-02-19 14:58:09.605952471 +0000 UTC deployed        lumenvox-6.3.0  6.3.0

Delete the existing persistent-volume-directory-setup job

kubectl delete job persistent-volume-directory-setup -n lumenvox

Perform the downgrade by running the Helm rollback command as per below. The release specified needs to be N-1.

helm rollback lumenvox 3 -n lumenvox

Output example:

Rollback was a success! Happy Helming!
