@ysaakpr last time I checked, avoid jx upgrade it doesnt do what you think it does. Or at least, its not consistent with jx install so you get weird results

A good example is the jenkins password gets reset to admin/admin :)

I've favored running jx install again, and accepting the admin password gets rotated and may need a restart of the pod

You can find some docs at https://jenkins-x.io/getting-started/config/#readout, which explains how to overwrite the current platform values when running the jx upgrade platform command.
