I created a Wiki page that describes a step-by-step procedure for upgrading Hadoop to a newer software version, and outlines enhancements that'd make the upgrade simple and safe. This is a result of discussions held on this mailing list (some links provided). The upgrade procedure is based on extensive maintenance experience of a large cluster.

This is the link:

Please share your views.
