Welcome to our community! 😃
6.2 is very much [EOL](https://www.elastic.co/support/eol) and no longer supported, you should upgrade as a matter of urgency. I don't think we supported aarch64 back then either, only in newer version.

Regarding aarch64
We started to support Linux in 7.7.0
> **[Elasticsearch 7.7.0](https://www.elastic.co/downloads/past-releases/elasticsearch-7-7-0)**
And MacOS in 7.16.0
> **[Elasticsearch 7.16.0 | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/downloads/past-releases/elasticsearch-7-16-0)**
For both Free / Basic or Commercial license
Same distribution just depends on proper license applied
Technically we don't use the term x-pack anymore.
You can see the different Free vs Subscription [here](https://www.elastic.co/subscriptions)

If you look at the [support matrix](https://www.elastic.co/support/matrix) it states:
> As of 7.12+ releases, we support aarch64 with the same set of distributions as x86\_64.
From version 6.3 X-Pack is no longer standalone, but rather bundled with the default distribution (the only one available version 7.11 onwards).

Correct. I would therefore recommend upgrading to at least the latest 7.17 release.

BTW,after 30-day trial for x-pack of elasticsearch 7.17,could I still use it for security(password authentication) if I don't purchase a subscription?
