Administrating MarkLogic Server

Effective Version and Software Version

Until you commit the upgrade, the effective version of the hosts in the cluster is the earlier version, not the newer version (for example 9.0-6, not 10.0-1). The effective version is the version that the cluster as a whole is running. The software version is the version of MarkLogic Server that is installed on each host. You will be prompted to upgrade the Security database when you log in to the Admin Interface.

Note

After committing a rolling upgrade, you can only restore to the later version (for example, 10.0-1), not to the earlier version (for example, 9.0-6). Running your cluster in an uncommitted state is equivalent to running in the previous (earlier) version of MarkLogic. No 10.0-1 features are available until the upgrade has been committed.

An upgrade of the Security database is required after you have committed the new version of MarkLogic.
