Preparing to Upgrade

Oracle NoSQL Database supports upgrades from releases for the current year and prior two calendar years. For example, to upgrade a store to the 20.x release, the store must be running release 18.x or later.

Before beginning the upgrade process, create a backup of the store by making a snapshot. See Taking a Snapshot.

In Oracle NoSQL Database, configuration changes and other administrative activities involve plans. For information about plans, see Plans.

Note:

During the upgrade process, you should not create any plans until all services in the store have been upgraded.

As soon as possible after upgrading the service components, upgrade any application programs that use the kvstore client library.
