Hi, thanks for this information Rob. Yet, can't we rebuild a new DC with the current C* version, upgrade it to the new major once it is fully part of the C* cluster, and then switch all the clients to the new DC once we are sure everything is ok and shut down the old one ?
I mean, on a multiDC setup, while upgrading, there must be a moment that 2 DCs haven't the same major version, this is probably supported. With this process, won't I get rid of potential issue ?
