Migrating from Automation Suite on Linux to Automation Suite on EKS/AKS
uipathctl
.
One of the advantages of this migration process is that you can attempt to perform it multiple times with no impact on your existing cluster.
You can only migrate to a new installation of Automation on EKS/AKS. Migrating to an existing installation of Automation on EKS/AKS is currently not supported.
To migrate from Automation Suite on Linux to Automation Suite on EKS/AKS, you must meet the following requirements:
-
You must establish connectivity between the two environments.
-
You must have an external objectstore configured in your source cluster. If you use in-cluster storage, see Migrating in-cluster objectstore to external objectstore.
-
The version of your Automation Suite on Linux must be 2022.10 or newer.
-
Offline-only requirements: You must hydrate the source cluster.

Migration step |
---|---|
1. |
Mandatory. Download
uipathctl .
For download instructions, see uipathctl. |
2. |
Mandatory. Download
versions.json .
For download instructions, see versions.json. |
3. |
Prepare the docker images for both source and target cluster. Optional. If your deployment is offline or if you use a private OCI registry, make sure the required images are available. |
4. |
Prepare the target cluster:
|
5. |
Run the migration and move the data. The migration executes pods on both the source and target clusters. The external object storage configured for the source cluster, specifically the Platform bucket, is used as an intermediate migration storage location. Source cluster:

Not migrated If you use a private registry, you must hydrate the target registry. If you use
registry.uipath.com for the target cluster, no further steps are needed.)

Customer |
FQDN |
Optional You must choose a new FQDN for the new cluster. Optionally, you can revert to the previous FQDN if needed. | Customer |
Certificates |
Not migrated You must bring certificates as part of the new cluster installation. | Customer |
Cluster configuration |
Not migrated You must generate the new
input.json applicable to the target cluster type (AKS or EKS).
| Customer |
Custom alerts and dashboards created by users |
Not migrated You must reconfigure the custom alerts and dashboards post-migration. | Customer |
Application logs / Prometheus streaming configuration created by users |
Not migrated You must reconfigure application log and Prometheus streaming. | Customer |

Objectstore |
External objectstore: Retained For external objectstore, you have two options:
Important: If you're using an in-cluster object store, you must perform a ceph-to-external migration before the upgrade. |

Do not modify the source cluster after starting the migration process.

uipathcore
Docker image tag to be available for both the source and target clusters. If your source cluster is offline, make the image
available by taking the following steps:
If you use a private registry, you must seed it. For instructions, seeConfiguring the OCI-compliant registry.
The steps in this section are applicable only if you enabled AI Center on both the source and target clusters. Note that the instructions assume that AI Center on the target cluster points to the database containing the skill data for running the skills.
After completing the migration, you must sync the AI Center skills so that you can use them again.
To run the skill migration, take the following steps:
-d "[skill_id1, skill_id2, .... ]"
as an extra argument to curl
in step 3.
