Hello all!

I have ES 0.11.0 running, using shared FS gateway. What steps should I  
take to update ES to 0.16.0? Which problems are expected in case of  
running ES 0.16.0 with the same configuration on existing storage?

Thanks!

In general, the most important update notes to read are for 0.13 and 0.16. You should be able to directly upgrade from 0.10 to 0.16 (while reading the relevant release notes), but I suggest you test it first.

Also, if you upgrading, think about the option to move to local gateway (Which will require to reindex) compared to the shared fs gateway option.

I tested it on simple index and succeeded. Following settings needed to  
be added to ES configuration:

cluster:  
routing:  
operation:  
use\_type: true

path:  
data: work  
work: worktmp

What benefits would local gateway provide? Reindexing is undesirable  
due to large size of the index.

Thank you for reply!

local gateway will not require you to set a shared file system, and reduce the IO operations of snapshotting the data from each local node to the shared FS.
