The minimum supported version to upgrade greenplum database to 4.3 is 4.2.x.x. If your database is lower than this, then you need to first upgrade your Greenplum database to 4.2.x.x and then upgrade to 4.3.
==================================================================================================================
If you are utilizing Data Domain Boost, you have to re-enter your DD Boost credentials after upgrading from Greenplum Database 4.2.x.x to 4.3 as follows: gpcrondump --ddboost-host ddboost_hostname --ddboost-user ddboost_user
Note that if you do not reenter your login credentials after an upgrade, your backup will never start because the Greenplum Database cannot connect to the Data Domain system. You will receive an error advising you to check your login credentials.
