Upgrading from 5.7.1 to 6.2 - any pitfalls?

Q&A
1

I can't seem to find any instructions for upgrading from 5.7.1 to 6.2.

How does one do this?

Anything to watch out for?

First, you need to upgrade from 5.7 to 5.10, one version after one version.

To switch from 5.10 to 6.2, tools are coming on the documentation soon.

To migrate a process definition, first migrate it to 5.9 or 5.10, and export it as a .bar file. Then use the guided migration feature of 6.x, described here. This automates the process migration as much as possible, though there are some things that you need to check or do manually.

The 5.x and 6.x platforms are very different, so there is no upgrade route, but rather you do a new install of 6.2. For more information, see here.
