NSX Upgrade

Hello Team. 

In fact, I would like your help to check if my understanding is correct about NSX Upgrade. 

 

1) The NSX Upgrade order (from 3.x -> 4.x or 4.x -> 4.x) is Edge Nodes -> Hosts -> Management?

2) To perform Edge nodes upgrade without network interruption we need to use Serial Option instead of Parallel Option?

Thanks!

Hello,

In both serial and parallel upgrades Edge nodes are upgraded one at a time.

Serial means if you have more than one Edge groups, the Edge upgrade unit groups are upgraded one by one. However, in Parallel mode the Edge upgrade unit groups are upgraded together.

The upgrade path is correct.

All details related to the NSX upgraded is listed in the below doc.
