To answer my own question here, we tested this out in QA and then ran in production with no issues Step 1. Upgrade to 1.2.2 Step 2. Start up all nodes It works great. There was no need to run upgradesstables. That said, we are doing a rolling upgradesstables on every node in production right no

I'm currently migrating 1.1.0 to 1.2.1 and on our small CI cluster, that I was testing some stuff on, it seems that it's not required to run upgradesstables (this doc doesn't mention about it too: http://www.datastax.com/docs/1.2/install/upgrading but the previous versions did). Of course I'd l

My script to upgrade our first node in QA is thus (basically, snapshot, drain, stop, then switch over then start)… #!/bin/bash export NODE=$1 export VERSION=1.1.4 export USER=cassandra #NOTE: This script requires you have cassandra 1.2.2 in /opt/cassandra-1.2.2 but # feel free to modify if you
