Change subject: [docs] update the upgrade documentation

Patch Set 3:

(5 comments)

I added a few comments. I would also be interested in Andrews feedback. He 
recently started looking at improved rolling restarts and upgrades which 
includes things like clean shutdowns to reduce startup time, faster startups, 
etc.

File docs/installation.adoc:

PS3, Line 635:
I like the idea of documenting how to do a rolling upgrade because we know 
users are already doing it. However, I think we should prioritize writing 
upgrade tests that can be run for each release if we are going to encourage it 
and remove the disclaimer about it being supported.


http://gerrit.cloudera.org:8080/#/c/13820/3/docs/installation.adoc@638
PS3, Line 638:   - Copy the `kudu-tserver`, `kudu-master` and `kudu` binaries 
from your build directory.
Maybe say something like "Replace the `kudu-server`..."

Otherwise it's not clear what you mean by "copy".


http://gerrit.cloudera.org:8080/#/c/13820/3/docs/installation.adoc@640
PS3, Line 640:   - Set the unavailable time for every tablet server to a large 
value (2 hours or more) by gflag
The 2 hours or more feels a bit arbitrary. Maybe say something like 2x your 
expected restart time? The example command will still have 2 hours as the 
sample value.


http://gerrit.cloudera.org:8080/#/c/13820/3/docs/installation.adoc@647
PS3, Line 647: wait until it is online
Maybe note what a user should a user look at to know it's online?


http://gerrit.cloudera.org:8080/#/c/13820/3/docs/installation.adoc@652
PS3, Line 652: restarted tablet servers
> "Replicas hosted on restarted tablet servers"
This seems like a race against time given the default is 5 minutes.

In general an upgrade doesn't take longer than the average restart, so I am not 
sure setting this config is needed. 3-4-3 replication will prevent to much 
re-replication, and if this flag is needed for restarts it might need to be set 
permanently anyway.
