@sundardustan  
I believe you have used [this helm charts](https://github.com/dremio/dremio-cloud-tools/tree/master/charts/dremio_v2)

Upgrading dremio using helm chart will not destroy the data. Please find the upgrade instructions for a helm deployment in [here](https://github.com/dremio/dremio-cloud-tools/blob/master/charts/dremio_v2/docs/administration/Upgrading-Dremio.md). Please ensure you have a backup taken before proceeding with the upgrade.

You have to run the backup command inside the master/coordinator pod. Backup Instructions can be found [here](https://docs.dremio.com/advanced-administration/backup.html)

ex: /opt/dremio/bin/dremio-admin backup -i -u user -p password -d /tmp/backup

Use kubectl cp command to copy the backup directory to local.

eg: kubectl cp dremio-master-0:/tmp/backup /my-local/dir
