I'm running a two-node cluster with Elasticsearch 0.90.11. I want to  
upgrade to the newest version (1.1.1), but I'm not entirely sure on how to  
do it. 0.90.11 is based on Lucene 4.6.1 and 1.1.1 on Lucene 4.7.2. Can I do  
the following:

1. stop node 1.
2. install 1.1.1 on node 1.
3. copy data folder to 1.1.1.
4. start node 1 and wait for it to synchronize.
5. stop node 2.
6. install 1.1.1 on node 2.
7. copy data folder to 1.1.1.
8. start node 2 and wait for it to synchronize.

I can live with downtime if not possible otherwise.

I guess the upgrade will upgrade to latest lucene automatically.

1. stop node 1.
2. install 1.1.1 on node 1.  
\*[NOT REQUIRED] \*_3. copy data folder to 1.1.1._
3. start node 1 and wait for it to synchronize.

Let me know how it goes.

Important part is:

0.90.x

1.x

Restart Upgrade

So you need to stop the whole cluster and restart.

Following the upgrade guide worked perfectly. Thank you very much for your  
help.

Hi Thomas,

I am following the same steps as you listed.  
I had one query I would be thankful if you can help me out.

After copying the data and config folder to the latest elasticsearch  
version when I restart the elasticsearch 1.1.1 server,  
I see two nodes in the same cluster(instead of one).  
Can you tell me how this second node is created?

Thanks,  
Ayush
