5.4.0 Release Notes

6.0-SNAPSHOT 5.6 5.5.2 5.5 5.4.1 5.4 5.3.4 5.3 5.2 5.1 5.0
Hazelcast Management Center 5.4 requires Java 17 or later to run.
This only applies if you are upgrading your MC: MC 5.4.0 uses H2 2.x as its internal database instead of H2 1.x used by the previous MC releases. H2 1.x and 2.x are not compatible so a data migration step is required. If you use the provided hz-mc or mc-start scripts to start MC, no further actions are needed as they handle the migration seamlessly. If you use a custom run script, refer to the documentation for comprehensive instructions on migrating MC data. If the internal database is not upgraded, then MC will start with a new configuration.
