Hello Together, I was trying to upgrade my cluster from 6.7.1 to 6.8.0 and i have came across the below error. Anyone have inputs on this. Error: The requested cluster configuration change is not permitted. Value of field 'elasticsearch.version' cannot be changed to [7.0.0]. When i checked in logs I could see the error as: Deprecated field [\_version] used, expected [version] instead [es/i-10/es.log] ---
