Christopher Tubbs commented on ACCUMULO-3590:
---------------------------------------------
{{instance.*}} properties are for properties which should be consistent across
a cluster. Most new properties we add between versions should fall into
{{general.*}} instead.
The main thing that changes between versions affecting the {{SystemToken}} is
going to be the "wire version", which is part of the token to prevent
cross-communication between incompatible versions with respect to the RPC layer.
> Rolling upgrade support

> Key: ACCUMULO-3590
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-3590
> Project: Accumulo
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Josh Elser
> Fix For: 1.9.0
>
>
> We really lack any support for rolling upgrades between versions of Accumulo.
> Need to have a way to provide seamless upgrades between certain versions of
> Accumulo which minimize any downtime/impact on users of the system.
> Need to cover fundamental control features (like a rolling upgrade), changes
> to our serialized data structures (help prevent us from goofing up
> serialization across versions -- thrift/protobuf/etc), backwards/forward
> compatible RFile and WAL support (including control), lots of tests, and lots
> of documentation.
