K8s 1.16 compatibility: statefulset moved to apps/v1

[valer-cara]

The current generateStatefulSet() uses the apps/v1beta1 api which has been deprecated in kubernetes 1.16.

The controller is thus unable to instantiate the cluster.

level=error msg="could not sync cluster: could not sync statefulsets: could not create missing statefulset: the server could not find the requested resource"

Thanks for noticing. Have to check if replacing v1beta is easily possible. At least apps/v1 is available for a while now.

[valer-cara]

my only concern was backwards compat. afaik the controller only updates the STS without affecting the existing pods, so it'd be safe.

[Bryji]

Is it confirmed this is seamless upgrade - operator will update the statefulset leaving the pods intact?

I am having trouble getting the Postgres operator to run on k8s v 1.16.0 or 1.16.1 although it runs fine for me on 1.15.3. Has anyone had any success run it on v1.16.x ?

[philippfreyer]

@Keithsc I asked on the Slack channel and got the answer that the following docker image should already contain the fix and work - it did for me:
image: registry.opensource.zalan.do/acid/postgres-operator:v1.2.0-15-gbb855fd-dirty

Patching the deployment yaml file with this image:
sed -e "s#image: registry.opensource.zalan.do/acid/postgres-operator:v1.2.0#image: registry.opensource.zalan.do/acid/postgres-operator:v1.2.0-15-gbb855fd-dirty#g" manifests/postgres-operator.yaml | kubectl -n postgres-operator create -f -

I am having trouble getting the Postgres operator to run on k8s v 1.15.0(my kubernetes cluster) or 1.16.2 (my Minikube).

kubectl create -f manifests/postgres-operator.yaml

I did not find any migration guide. Upgrading the Operator is working fine. But the existing Statefulsets are NOT changed (recreated) .... whats the desired migration path?

---

Ok ... after a lot of confusion were we saw even newly created ones had app/v1beta2 ... we looked again. Stupidly enough only the KUbernetes dashboard printed v1beta2 even though it was app/v1 ... did not check on kubectl :( and as we'Re migrating on Kubernetes 1.15.3 of course it was still the old K8 dashboard.
