Hello, all My staging stage is ES 5.2 right now. I wanna upgrade ES to be 5.6.13. Is this procedure very safe ? [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/5.6/rolling-upgrades.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/5.6/rolling-upgrades.html) Example, i have 5 servers in my ES cluster. Which one should be upgraded first, node data, node ingest or node master ? Even though this is staging stage, i wanna try the best one, so in the next case or production stage, i can implement it by myself. Thank you for your time and help. ---
