Downgrade Elastic Search

Y_MN · November 16, 2021, 9:10am

I need to upgrade ES from 7.10.2 to 7.14.1, and if something goes wrong, can I automatically roll back to the previous version?

No, Elasticsearch does not support downgrades. You need to make sure you have a snapshot taken using the snapshot API that you can restore if you want to go back to the older version.

Also please note it's Elasticsearch, not Elastic Search

You need to use the snapshot API. Storage level snapshots are not supported and may not work.

can i ask you one more time? so i can use only 4 type : S3, HDFS , Azure or Google Cloud Storage?

The default is shared storage, e.g. NFS volume.
