Hi @dab

The steps in [Upgrade a deployment | YugabyteDB Docs](https://docs.yugabyte.com/latest/manage/upgrade-deployment/) are pretty clear I think.  
Did you follow them all ?

sorry I rebooted the servers everything works fine now the db version is in 2.3.3.0.  
before posting I did several tests stopping processes on all the servers I was still in 2.2.0.0. I must have made a mistake somewhere  
thank you
