Part V. Patching Data Grid Servers

Red Hat Data Grid server uses the patching functionality in JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (EAP) so that you can apply changes from errata releases without the need to completely replace an existing installation.

Patches are distributed for cumulative updates within a release version. The base version for this release is 7.3.1. Due to a technical issue, it is not possible to patch Data Grid 7.3.0.

You can apply 7.3.x patches to the base version or on top of other patches.

You cannot apply 7.3.x patches to any other Data Grid release version. Likewise you cannot apply patches from other release versions to the 7.3 release.

Data Grid provides patches for server instances only (Remote Client-Server mode). All other distributions, such as EAP modules, clients, and Data Grid Library mode, are provided as full releases.
