    Please follow the steps below to upgrade your Glasswall OVA:

    1. Backup MongoDB data and create a mongodump.
    kubectl port-forward svc/mongo-svc 27017
    # open another terminal on the vm
    username=$(kubectl get secret mongodb-cdrplatform-cdrp-user -o json | jq -r '.data.username' | base64 -d)
    password=$(kubectl get secret mongodb-cdrplatform-cdrp-user -o json | jq -r '.data.password' | base64 -d)
    mongodump -h localhost -p 27017 --db cdrplatform --out halo_backup -u ${username:?} -p ${password:?}
    zip -r halo_backup.zip halo_backup
    
    1. Copy the backup zip file from the VM to a local machine.
    scp glasswall@<ip-of-the-old-vm>:~/halo_backup.zip halo_backup.zip
    
    1. Follow the steps in the deployment page based on VMWare or Hyper-V to create a new VM using the new OVA/VHD.

    2. Copy the halo_backup.zip from the local machine to the VM.

    scp halo_backup.zip glasswall@<ip-of-the-new-vm>:~/
    
    1. Restore the data in the new VM.
    kubectl port-forward svc/mongo-svc 27017
    # open another terminal on the vm
    unzip halo_backup.zip
    username=$(kubectl get secret mongodb-cdrplatform-cdrp-user -o json | jq -r '.data.username' | base64 -d)
    password=$(kubectl get secret mongodb-cdrplatform-cdrp-user -o json | jq -r '.data.password' | base64 -d)
    mongorestore --host localhost --port 27017 -u ${username:?} -p ${password:?}  --authenticationMechanism=SCRAM-SHA-256 --authenticationDatabase=cdrplatform halo_backup
    # cleanup the backup files after the restore
    rm -rf halo_backup halo_backup.zip
