  1. Update to your latest minor release version first before upgrade to recent major release. A June 2018 example: a customer is considering an upgrade from 5.5.8 to 5.7. The correct sequence would be: 5.5.8 → 

    Artifact resource link
    rangeHigherVersion5.6
    groupIdinfo.magnolia.bundle
    artifactIdmagnolia-bundle-parent
    label$version
    renderTypedisplay_only
    resourceTypePOM
     →

     → 5.7

  2. Update all external libraries required by the Magnolia release to which you intend to upgrade.
  3. Carefully look for "change" or "changes for ..." sections in the release notes since.
  4. Because the upgrade process takes time and is vulnerable to incidents, please minimize the risk by cleaning up your system, removing unused data, reindexing everything and doing a full backup first.
