How can I stop elasticsearch and kibana to check for upgrade?

Downtime happens everytime when there is a new release. Kibana would stop working or elasticsearch plugins would require upgrade and unable to start elasticsearch etc. How can we stop all the automatic upgrade process and stay offline and happy with the older version only.

There is no automatic update in elasticsearch or kibana.

This sounds like the question you have is how to disable package update depending on OS/package management you use
Examples
CentOS / YUM : https://www.tecmint.com/yum-lock-disable-blacklist-certain-package-update-version/

The correct way to update is always manually and may be just a rolling restart (one node at a time when there is no cluster downtime), please refer to this doc for the specific version you want to upgrade to

My ES automatically updates to the newest version (if available) when i restart. How can I stop this?

Thanks,
