+Detected an existing PostgreSQL database installed on the
+deprecated channel 1, but the current channel is set to 2. The default
+channel changed to 2 in of GitLab 13.0.
+[...]
+```
+
+Auto DevOps, by default, installs an in-cluster PostgreSQL database alongside
+your application. The default installation method changed in GitLab 13.0, and
+upgrading existing databases requires user involvement. The two installation
+methods are:
+
+- **channel 1 (deprecated):** Pulls in the database as a dependency of the associated
+ Helm chart. Only supports Kubernetes versions up to version 1.15.
+- **channel 2 (current):** Installs the database as an independent Helm chart. Required
+ for using the in-cluster database feature with Kubernetes versions 1.16 and greater.
+
+If you receive this error, you can do one of the following actions:
+
+- You can *safely* ignore the warning and continue using the channel 1 PostgreSQL
+ database by setting `AUTO_DEVOPS_POSTGRES_CHANNEL` to `1` and redeploying.
+
+- You can delete the channel 1 PostgreSQL database and install a fresh channel 2
+ database by setting `AUTO_DEVOPS_POSTGRES_DELETE_V1` to a non-empty value and
+ redeploying.
+
+ DANGER: **Danger:**
+ Deleting the channel 1 PostgreSQL database permanently deletes the existing
+ channel 1 database and all its data. See
+ [Upgrading PostgreSQL](upgrading_postgresql.md)
+ for more information on backing up and upgrading your database.
+
+- If you are not using the in-cluster database, you can set
+ `POSTGRES_ENABLED` to `false` and re-deploy. This option is especially relevant to
+ users of *custom charts without the in-chart PostgreSQL dependency*.
+ Database auto-detection is based on the `postgresql.enabled` Helm value for
+ your release. This value is set based on the `POSTGRES_ENABLED` CI variable
+ and persisted by Helm, regardless of whether or not your chart uses the
+ variable.
+
+DANGER: **Danger:**
+Setting `POSTGRES_ENABLED` to `false` permanently deletes any existing

+# Upgrading auto-deploy-app chart for Auto DevOps
+
+Auto DevOps provides the auto-deploy-app chart for deploying your application to the
+Kubernetes cluster with Helm/Tiller. Major version changes of this chart could have
+a significantly different resource architecture, and may not be backwards compatible.
+
+This guide provides instructions on how to upgrade your deployments to use the latest
+chart and resource architecture.
+
+## Compatibility
+
+The following table lists the version compatibility between GitLab and [auto-deploy-image](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/cluster-integration/auto-deploy-image) (with the [auto-deploy-app chart](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/cluster-integration/auto-deploy-image/-/tree/master/assets/auto-deploy-app)).
+
+| GitLab version | auto-deploy-image version | Notes |
+|------------------|---------------------------|--------------------------------------------|
+| v10.0 and higher | v0.1.0 and higher | v0 and v1 charts are backwards compatible. |
+
+## Upgrade Guide
+
+The Auto DevOps project must use the unmodified chart managed by GitLab.
+[Customized charts](customize.md#custom-helm-chart) are unsupported.
+
+### v1 chart
+
+The v1 chart is backward compatible with the v0 chart, so no configuration changes are needed.
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Major version mismatch warning
+
+If deploying a chart that has a major version that is different from the previous one,
+the new chart might not be correctly deployed. This could be due to an architectural
+change. If that happens, the deployment job fails with a message similar to:
+
+```plaintext
+*************************************************************************************
+ [WARNING]
+Detected a major version difference between the the chart that is currently deploying (auto-deploy-app-v0.7.0), and the previously deployed chart (auto-deploy-app-v1.0.0).
+A new major version might not be backward compatible with the current release (production). The deployment could fail or be stuck in an unrecoverable status.
+...
+```
+
+To clear this error message and resume deployments, you must do one of the following:
+
+- Manually [upgrade the chart version](#upgrade-guide).
+- [Use a specific chart version](#use-a-specific-chart-version).
+
+#### Use a specific chart version
+
+To use a specific chart version, you must specify a corresponding version of [auto-deploy-image](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/cluster-integration/auto-deploy-image).

+
+For example, create the following `.gitlab-ci.yml` file in the project. It configures Auto DevOps
+to use [auto-deploy-image](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/cluster-integration/auto-deploy-image) version `v0.17.0`
+for deployment jobs. It will download the chart from [chart repository](https://charts.gitlab.io/):
+
+```yaml
+include:
+ - template: Auto-DevOps.gitlab-ci.yml
+
+.auto-deploy:
+ image: "registry.gitlab.com/gitlab-org/cluster-integration/auto-deploy-image:v0.17.0"
+```
+
+### Ignore warning and continue deploying
+
+If you are certain that the new chart version is safe to be deployed,
+you can add the `AUTO_DEVOPS_ALLOW_TO_FORCE_DEPLOY_V<N>` [environment variable](customize.md#build-and-deployment)
+to force the deployment to continue, where `<N>` is the major version.
+
+For example, if you want to deploy the v2.0.0 chart on a deployment that previously
+used the v0.17.0 chart, add `AUTO_DEVOPS_ALLOW_TO_FORCE_DEPLOY_V2`.
