Hi Everyone,
I had someone come to me with an issue this week that was simple to solve but in the haste of troubleshooting could be missed. Remember if you are using Rancher Desktop or any other mini distribution that automatically sets Kubernetes version, always set the version back a bit. The mini distributions tend to move up the chain pretty quickly whereas software, like Kasten has to go through testing and Q/A. The developer in question had set up some postgresql databases and wanted to back up their work. The backup was getting stuck and never completing with hardly any information in the logs.
I bet $20 I could fix it in 30 seconds :) and I won.
My steps:
Go to file menu in Rancher Desktop then Preferences
Next head down to Kubernetes and change the version number, in this case I moved it back to 1.25.9 since the version was not going to make any difference for the testing that they were doing:
After that the backup was fine.
