<h2><a name="Introduction"></a>Introduction</h2>
<p><i>HDFS rolling upgrade</i> allows upgrading individual HDFS daemons. For examples, the datanodes can be upgraded independent of the namenodes. A namenode can be upgraded independent of the other namenodes. The namenodes can be upgraded independent of datanodes and journal nodes.</p></div>
<div class="section">
<h2><a name="Upgrade"></a>Upgrade</h2>
<p>In Hadoop v2, HDFS supports highly-available (HA) namenode services and wire compatibility. These two capabilities make it feasible to upgrade HDFS without incurring HDFS downtime. In order to upgrade a HDFS cluster without downtime, the cluster must be setup with HA.</p>
<p>If there is any new feature which is enabled in new software release, may not work with old software release after upgrade. In such cases upgrade should be done by following steps.</p>
<ol style="list-style-type: decimal">
<li>Disable new feature.</li>
<li>Upgrade the cluster.</li>
<li>Enable the new feature.</li>
</ol>
<p>Note that rolling upgrade is supported only from Hadoop-2.4.0 onwards.</p>
<div class="section">
<h3><a name="Upgrade_without_Downtime"></a>Upgrade without Downtime</h3>
<p>In an HA cluster, there are two or more <i>NameNodes (NNs)</i>, many <i>DataNodes (DNs)</i>, a few <i>JournalNodes (JNs)</i> and a few <i>ZooKeeperNodes (ZKNs)</i>. <i>JNs</i> is relatively stable and does not require upgrade when upgrading HDFS in most of the cases. In the rolling upgrade procedure described here, only <i>NNs</i> and <i>DNs</i> are considered but <i>JNs</i> and <i>ZKNs</i> are not. Upgrading <i>JNs</i> and <i>ZKNs</i> may incur cluster downtime.</p>
<div class="section">
<h4><a name="Upgrading_Non-Federated_Clusters"></a>Upgrading Non-Federated Clusters</h4>
<p>Suppose there are two namenodes <i>NN1</i> and <i>NN2</i>, where <i>NN1</i> and <i>NN2</i> are respectively in active and standby states. The following are the steps for upgrading an HA cluster:</p>
<ol style="list-style-type: decimal">
<li>Prepare Rolling Upgrade
<ol style="list-style-type: decimal">
<li>Run &#x201c;<a href="#dfsadmin_-rollingUpgrade"><tt>hdfs dfsadmin -rollingUpgrade prepare</tt></a>&#x201d; to create a fsimage for rollback.</li>
<li>Run &#x201c;<a href="#dfsadmin_-rollingUpgrade"><tt>hdfs dfsadmin -rollingUpgrade query</tt></a>&#x201d; to check the status of the rollback image. Wait and re-run the command until the &#x201c;<tt>Proceed with rolling upgrade</tt>&#x201d; message is shown.</li>
</ol>
</li>
<li>Upgrade Active and Standby <i>NNs</i>
<ol style="list-style-type: decimal">
<li>Shutdown and upgrade <i>NN2</i>.</li>
<li>Start <i>NN2</i> as standby with the &#x201c;<a href="#namenode_-rollingUpgrade"><tt>-rollingUpgrade started</tt></a>&#x201d; option.</li>
<li>Failover from <i>NN1</i> to <i>NN2</i> so that <i>NN2</i> becomes active and <i>NN1</i> becomes standby.</li>
<li>Shutdown and upgrade <i>NN1</i>.</li>
<li>Start <i>NN1</i> as standby with the &#x201c;<a href="#namenode_-rollingUpgrade"><tt>-rollingUpgrade started</tt></a>&#x201d; option.</li>
</ol>
</li>
<li>Upgrade <i>DNs</i>

<p>For non-HA clusters, it is impossible to upgrade HDFS without downtime since it requires restarting the namenodes. However, datanodes can still be upgraded in a rolling manner.</p>

<p>In a non-HA cluster, there are a <i>NameNode (NN)</i>, a <i>SecondaryNameNode (SNN)</i> and many <i>DataNodes (DNs)</i>. The procedure for upgrading a non-HA cluster is similar to upgrading an HA cluster except that Step 2 &#x201c;Upgrade Active and Standby <i>NNs</i>&#x201d; is changed to below:</p>

<h2><a name="Downgrade_and_Rollback"></a>Downgrade and Rollback</h2>
<p>When the upgraded release is undesirable or, in some unlikely case, the upgrade fails (due to bugs in the newer release), administrators may choose to downgrade HDFS back to the pre-upgrade release, or rollback HDFS to the pre-upgrade release and the pre-upgrade state.</p>
<p>Note that downgrade can be done in a rolling fashion but rollback cannot. Rollback requires cluster downtime.</p>
<p>Note also that downgrade and rollback are possible only after a rolling upgrade is started and before the upgrade is terminated. An upgrade can be terminated by either finalize, downgrade or rollback. Therefore, it may not be possible to perform rollback after finalize or downgrade, or to perform downgrade after finalize.</p></div>
<div class="section">
<h2><a name="Downgrade"></a>Downgrade</h2>
<p><i>Downgrade</i> restores the software back to the pre-upgrade release and preserves the user data. Suppose time <i>T</i> is the rolling upgrade start time and the upgrade is terminated by downgrade. Then, the files created before or after <i>T</i> remain available in HDFS. The files deleted before or after <i>T</i> remain deleted in HDFS.</p>
<p>A newer release is downgradable to the pre-upgrade release only if both the namenode layout version and the datanode layout version are not changed between these two releases.</p>
<p>In an HA cluster, when a rolling upgrade from an old software release to a new software release is in progress, it is possible to downgrade, in a rolling fashion, the upgraded machines back to the old software release. Same as before, suppose <i>NN1</i> and <i>NN2</i> are respectively in active and standby states. Below are the steps for rolling downgrade without downtime:</p>
<ol style="list-style-type: decimal">
<li>Downgrade <i>DNs</i>
<ol style="list-style-type: decimal">
<li>Choose a small subset of datanodes (e.g. all datanodes under a particular rack).

<li>Perform the above steps for all the chosen datanodes in the subset in parallel.</li>
</ol>
</li>
<li>Repeat the above steps until all upgraded datanodes in the cluster are downgraded.</li>
</ol>
</li>
<li>Downgrade Active and Standby <i>NNs</i>
<ol style="list-style-type: decimal">
<li>Shutdown and downgrade <i>NN2</i>.</li>
<li>Start <i>NN2</i> as standby normally.</li>
<li>Failover from <i>NN1</i> to <i>NN2</i> so that <i>NN2</i> becomes active and <i>NN1</i> becomes standby.</li>
<li>Shutdown and downgrade <i>NN1</i>.</li>
<li>Start <i>NN1</i> as standby normally.</li>
</ol>

</ol>
</li>
</ol>
<p>Note that the datanodes must be downgraded before downgrading the namenodes since protocols may be changed in a backward compatible manner but not forward compatible, i.e. old datanodes can talk to the new namenodes but not vice versa.</p></div>
<div class="section">
<h2><a name="Rollback"></a>Rollback</h2>
<p><i>Rollback</i> restores the software back to the pre-upgrade release but also reverts the user data back to the pre-upgrade state. Suppose time <i>T</i> is the rolling upgrade start time and the upgrade is terminated by rollback. The files created before <i>T</i> remain available in HDFS but the files created after <i>T</i> become unavailable. The files deleted before <i>T</i> remain deleted in HDFS but the files deleted after <i>T</i> are restored.</p>
<p>Rollback from a newer release to the pre-upgrade release is always supported. However, it cannot be done in a rolling fashion. It requires cluster downtime. Suppose <i>NN1</i> and <i>NN2</i> are respectively in active and standby states. Below are the steps for rollback:</p>
<ul>
<li>Rollback HDFS
<ol style="list-style-type: decimal">
<li>Shutdown all <i>NNs</i> and <i>DNs</i>.</li>
<li>Restore the pre-upgrade release in all machines.</li>
<li>Start <i>NN1</i> as Active with the &#x201c;<a href="#namenode_-rollingUpgrade"><tt>-rollingUpgrade rollback</tt></a>&#x201d; option.</li>
<li>Run `-bootstrapStandby&#x2019; on NN2 and start it normally as standby.</li>
<li>Start <i>DNs</i> with the &#x201c;<tt>-rollback</tt>&#x201d; option.</li>
