Hi,
I am wanting to upgrade our cluster which has two shards and three replica sets from version 2.4 to 2.6. I have read the various documents on the MongoDB website and have successfully run db.upgradeCheckAllDBs(), however most of the documentation I have seen relates to upgrading standalone instances whereas I am upgrading an Ubuntu server using apt-get. Can anyone let me know the procedure for performing this upgrade?
I presume I need to disable the balancer and then upgrade the secondary servers first but will upgrading using apt-get successfully upgrade the mongod instance, any mongos instance and any config server at the same time? If I do this initially on the secondary servers won't this leave the primary servers running version 2.4 while the secondary servers are on version 2.6? Will this mix of versions work until I upgrade the primary servers?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Richard.
