Hi William,

Agreed that the Galera cluster upgrade documentation really ought to
be documented. Perhaps it should just be incorporated into the regular
MariaDB server upgrade documentation, but it needs to be *somewhere*
in the KB.

In the meantime, you might find the FromDual instructions useful:
https://fromdual.com/upgrading-from-mariadb-10.4-to-mariadb-10.5-galera-cluster

The only surprise I remember from doing this upgrade myself was that
on RHEL (and presumably derivative distros) the galera package was
renamed from "galera" to "galera-4".

And obviously watch out for deprecated / removed system variables, but
those should be documented in the regular upgrade documentation.

HTH,
Karl
