71
+ === Upgrading to 6.3
72
+ Starting in 6.3, the default distribution includes {xpack} with a free
73
+ Basic license. If you already have a Basic license, once you upgrade to 6.3
74
+ it will never expire or need to be renewed. If you have a license subscription,
75
+ your license and settings are preserved when you upgrade.
76
+
77
+ You can perform rolling upgrades to 6.3 from OSS-only clusters running 5.6
78
+ or 6.0-6.2. {xpack} Basic features will be operational once the cluster is fully
79
+ upgraded.
80
+
81
+ If you are using {xpack} for the first time, you must explicitly enable data
82
+ collection after the upgrade to use monitoring. Set
83
+ `xpack.monitoring.collection.enabled` to `true` with the `_cluster/settings`
84
+ API:
85
+
86
+ [source,json]
87
+ ----------------------------------------------------------
88
+ PUT /_cluster/settings
89
+ {
90
+ "persistent" : {
91
+ "xpack.monitoring.collection.enabled" : "true"
92
+ }
93
+ }
94
+ ----------------------------------------------------------
95
+ // CONSOLE
96
+
97
+ To take all of the {xpack} features for a spin, you can start a 30-day trial
98
+ from Kibana, or with the Start Trial API:
99
+
100
+ [source,json]
101
+ ----------------------------------------------------------
102
+ POST _xpack/license/start_trial
103
+ ----------------------------------------------------------
104
+ // CONSOLE
105
+
106
+ The 30-day trial enables you to try out the full set of Platinum features,
107
+ including security, machine learning, alerting, graph capabilities, and more.
