Gluster users - Jan 2013 - Gluster upgrade 3.2.5 to 3.3.1

Help please-

Last night I tried to upgrade from 3.2.5 to 3.3.1 and had no success and rolled
back to 3.2.5.

I followed the instructions for the upgrade as exactly as possible, but
don't understand this section:
5) If you have installed from RPM, goto 6).  Else, start glusterd in upgrade
mode. glusterd terminates after it performs the necessary steps for upgrade.
Re-start glusterd normally after this termination. Essentially this process
boils down to:

a) killall glusterd

b) glusterd ?xlator-option *.upgrade=on -N

I used the yum gluster repo which I thought would be the easiest way.  I also
tried an RPM install and no success.  I could start the volume, but none of the
bricks would be online.  They were all listed as N in the online column of a
"gluster volume info" output.  Very little help from the error logs.


Any thoughts?

I have performed an upgrade using RPM packages and I had to stop the 
volume and run glusterd with the upgrade option in order to see my logs 
free of warnings and misleading messages.

First of all, I would try to increase the verbosity of (at least) the  
brick logs.
