VMware Tanzu Application Service (TAS) for VMs: How to upgrade the Scheduler for the PCF database plan

Products

• VMware Tanzu Application Service for VMs

Issue/Introduction

At the time this article was written, changing the database plan in the Tile configuration will not actually change the database plan for scheduler-mysql and scheduler-broker-mysql services in the org system or space scheduler.

If this is still the case, then this needs to be done manually.

Environment

Product Version: 2.10

Resolution

The first thing we recommend to do is to take a back-up as explained in this link:
 

• https://docs.pivotal.io/p-mysql/2-10/backup-restore.html

Then, you should be able to upgrade the scheduler db services with "cf update-service", as stated in the MySQL doc below:
 

• https://docs.pivotal.io/p-mysql/2-10/upgrade.html#change-plan

Something like this should work:

cf update-service scheduler-mysql -p "db-medium"

Another option is to delete and re-install the Tile with the new desired db plan and restore the db from the back up previously taken.
