Tutorial, how to, guide, standard procedure to upgrade ES from 0.9 to 1.0?

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hi guys.
I need to upgrade my existing and working 0.9 elasticsearch installation to
v1.0. Now, I've been searching for a tutorial or guide, but just found some
tips and items to take note of. Backup all the existing data and downtime.

So, is there a guide to follow? is it enough to backup /data dir and
upgrade /bin and /lib dirs?

Hope someone has upgraded and can help me out here.
Thanks!!

It'll depend a lot on the version you are running in 0.90.N. due to
underlying lucene changes

We rebuilt our cluster and reindexed, as we took the chance to make a few
changes to data and cluster structures and we had the capacity.

You'll need to do a full cluster restart from .90.x to 1.x (i.e. need to
bring down all nodes). There is some information here to help reduce
recovery/startup churn:

http://www.elasticsearch.org/webinars/elasticsearch-pre-flight-checklist/

But in general:

  1. Stop all queries/indexing jobs

  2. Flush your indexes: curl -XPOST "localhost:9200/_flush"

  3. Shutdown your cluster: curl -XPOST "localhost:9200/_shutdown"

  4. Backup all your data/ and config/ folders (from all nodes if you have
    multiple data folders/nodes) - This is important in case the upgrade fails!

  5. Per node, uninstall your current ES. Be careful not to delete the data
    folders and your config/ files

  6. Per node, install new ES and pull in your config/* files from previous
    install

  7. Verify all config files in all nodes and all data folders

  8. Start all nodes one by one
