+# Updating k3s
+
+## Before you start!
+
+Ensure you back up your k3s cluster. This is particularly important if you use
+an external datastore or embedded Etcd. Please refer to the below guide to
+backing up your k3s datastore:
+
+https://rancher.com/docs/k3s/latest/en/backup-restore/
+
+Also, check your volume backups are also working!
+
+## Proceedure
+
+### Updates using Ansible
+
+To update via Ansible, set `k3s_release_version` to the target version you wish
+to go to. For example, from your `v1.19.3+k3s1` playbook:
+
+```yaml
+---
+# BEFORE
+
+- name: Provision k3s cluster
+  hosts: k3s_cluster
+  roles:
+    - name: xanmanning.k3s
+      vars:
+        k3s_release_version: v1.19.3+k3s1
+```
+
+Updating to `v1.20.2+k3s1`:
+
+```yaml
+---
+# AFTER
+
+- name: Provision k3s cluster
+  hosts: k3s_cluster
+  roles:
+    - name: xanmanning.k3s
+      vars:
+        k3s_release_version: v1.20.2+k3s1
+```
+
+### Automatic updates
+
+For automatic updates, consider installing Rancher's
+[system-upgrade-controller](https://rancher.com/docs/k3s/latest/en/upgrades/automated/)
+
+**Please note**, to be able to update using the system-upgrade-controller you
+will need to set `k3s_install_hard_links` to `true`.
