-When changes are necessary, a new migration is started. To ensure that only one {kib} instance performs the migration, each instance will attempt to obtain a migration lock by creating a new `.kibana_N+1` index. The instance that succeeds in creating the index will then read batches of documents from the existing index, migrate them, and write them to the new index. Once the objects are migrated, the lock is released by pointing the `.kibana` index alias the new upgraded `.kibana_N+1` index.

+When upgrading several {kib} instances connected to the same {es} cluster, ensure that all outdated instances are shutdown before starting the upgrade. 
 
-Instances that failed to acquire a lock will log `Another Kibana instance appears to be migrating the index. Waiting for that migration to complete`. The instance will then wait until `.kibana` points to an upgraded index before starting up and serving HTTP traffic.
+Kibana does not support rolling upgrades. However, once outdated instances are shutdown, all upgraded instances can be started in parallel in which case all instances will participate in the upgrade migration in parallel.
 
-NOTE: Prior to 6.5.0, saved objects were stored directly in an index named `.kibana`. After upgrading to version 6.5+, {kib} will migrate this index into `.kibana_N` and set `.kibana` up as an index alias. +

+For large deployments with more than 10 {kib} instances and more than 10 000 saved objects, the upgrade downtime can be reduced by bringing up a single {kib} instance and waiting for it to complete the upgrade migration before bringing up the remaining instances.

 ==== Resolving migration failures
 
-If {kib} terminates unexpectedly while migrating a saved object index, manual intervention is required before {kib} will attempt to perform the migration again. Follow the advice in (preventing migration failures)[preventing-migration-failures] before retrying a migration upgrade.
-
-As mentioned above, {kib} will create a migration lock for each index that requires a migration by creating a new `.kibana_N+1` index. For example: if the `.kibana_task_manager` alias is pointing to `.kibana_task_manager_5` then the first {kib} that succeeds in creating `.kibana_task_manager_6` will obtain the lock to start migrations.
-
-However, if the instance that obtained the lock fails to migrate the index, all other {kib} instances will be blocked from performing this migration. This includes the instance that originally obtained the lock, it will be blocked from retrying the migration even when restarted.

-[float]
-===== Retry a migration by restoring a backup snapshot:
-
-1. Before proceeding ensure that you have a recent and successful backup snapshot of all `.kibana*` indices.
-2. Shutdown all {kib} instances to be 100% sure that there are no instances currently performing a migration.
-3. Delete all saved object indices with `DELETE /.kibana*`
-4. Restore the `.kibana* indices and their aliases from the backup snapshot. See {es} {ref}/modules-snapshots.html[snapshots]
-5. Start up all {kib} instances to retry the upgrade migration.
-
-[float]
-===== (Not recommended) Retry a migration without a backup snapshot:
+If {kib} terminates unexpectedly while migrating a saved object index it will automatically attempt to perform the migration again once the process has restarted. Do not delete any saved objects indices to attempt to fix a failed migration. Unlike previous versions, {kib} version 7.12.0 and later does not require deleting any indices to release a failed migration lock.
 
-1. Shutdown all {kib} instances to be 100% sure that there are no instances currently performing a migration.
-2. Identify any migration locks by comparing the output of `GET /_cat/aliases` and `GET /_cat/indices`. If e.g. `.kibana` is pointing to `.kibana_4` and there is a `.kibana_5` index, the `.kibana_5` index will act like a migration lock blocking further attempts. Be sure to check both the `.kibana` and `.kibana_task_manager` aliases and their indices.
-3. Remove any migration locks e.g. `DELETE /.kibana_5`. 
-4. Start up all {kib} instances.
+If upgrade migrations fail repeatedly, follow the advice in (preventing migration failures)[preventing-migration-failures]. Once the root cause for the migration failure has been addressed, {kib} will automatically retry the migration without any further intervention.
