Upgrades all DSE Search index files.

Requirements:

The remote node that contains the encryption configuration must be running.
The local node is offline.
The user that runs this command must have read and write permissions to the directory that contains the index files.

Table 1. Legend
Syntax conventions	Description
UPPERCASE	Literal keyword.
Lowercase	Not literal.
`Italics`	Variable value. Replace with a valid option or user-defined value.
`[ ]`	Optional. Square brackets ( `[ ]` ) surround optional command arguments. Do not type the square brackets.
`( )`	Group. Parentheses ( `( )` ) identify a group to choose from. Do not type the parentheses.
`\|`	Or. A vertical bar ( `\|` ) separates alternative elements. Type any one of the elements. Do not type the vertical bar.
`...`	Repeatable. An ellipsis ( `...` ) indicates that you can repeat the syntax element as often as required.
`'Literal string'`	Single quotation ( `'` ) marks must surround literal strings in CQL statements. Use single quotation marks to preserve upper case.
`{ key:value }`	Map collection. Braces ( `{ }` ) enclose map collections or key value pairs. A colon separates the key and the value.
`<datatype1,datatype2>`	Set, list, map, or tuple. Angle brackets ( `< >` ) enclose data types in a set, list, map, or tuple. Separate the data types with a comma.
`cql_statement;`	End CQL statement. A semicolon ( `;` ) terminates all CQL statements.
`[ -- ]`	Separate the command line options from the command arguments with two hyphens ( `--` ). This syntax is useful when arguments might be mistaken for command line options.
`' <schema> ... </schema> '`	Search CQL only: Single quotation marks ( `'` ) surround an entire XML schema declaration.
`@xml_entity='xml_entity_type'`	Search CQL only: Identify the entity and literal value to overwrite the XML element in the schema and solrconfig files.

keyspace_name.table_name: Required. The keyspace and table names of the search index. Keyspace and table names are case-sensitive. Enclose names that contain uppercase in double quotation marks.
-h IP_address: Required. Node hostname or IP address of the remote node that contains the encryption configuration that is used for index encryption. The remote node must be running.
-c port: The DSE port on the remote node that contains the encryption configuration.
--backup: Preserves the index files from the current index as a backup after successful upgrade. The preserved index file backup is moved to the --workspace directory. When not specified, index files from the current index are deleted.
--workspace directory: The workspace directory for the upgrade process. The upgraded index is created in this directory. When not specified, the default directory is the same directory that contains the search index files.
--index directory: The data directory that contains the search index files. When not specified, the default directory is inferred from the search index name.
