== Upgrading Kibana
|
|
|
|
[IMPORTANT]
|
|
===========================================
|
|
Before upgrading Kibana:
|
|
|
|
* Consult the <<breaking-changes,breaking changes>> docs.
|
|
* Test upgrades in a dev environment before upgrading your production servers.
|
|
* Backup your data using the Elasticsearch
|
|
{ref}/modules-snapshots.html[snapshots] feature.
|
|
You **cannot roll back** to an earlier version unless you have a backup of
|
|
your data.
|
|
* If you are using custom plugins, check that a compatible version is
|
|
available.
|
|
===========================================
|
|
|
|
Depending on which version of Kibana you're upgrading from, the upgrade process
|
|
will vary. Please consult the following table to determine which process you
|
|
should follow:
