Hi All,

We are planning our project from 5.6.1 to 6.1

Questions:

1. Do i need to upgrade first to 6.0 using Inplace upgrade or Can i do direct inplace upgrade in 6.1?

Please Suggest.

Thanks

Hi 

Please go through the documentation link:- https://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/aem/6-0/deploy/upgrade.html and https://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/aem/6-1/deploy/upgrade.html

UPGRADE OVERVIEW

There are two distinct steps to doing a full upgrade:

  1. In-Place Upgrade: Drop in the new jar file in place of the original one in your <aem-install> directory, right next to your existing crx-quickstart directory) and launch it. This upgrades the system, but leaves the existing CRX 2 repository as-is.
  2. Migrating the Repository to Oak: Once the in place upgrade is complete, you can optionally migrate the existing CRX 2 repository to the new Jackrabbit Oak-based CRX 3 repository. 

I hope this will help you.

Thanks and Regards

You can directly do an in-place upgrade to 6.1 from 5.6.1. Please follow the below docs-

Hi Kunal,

I am using CQ5.6 and need to migarte to AEM6.1

Please let me know how INPLACE upgrade will change repository OAK also.

I guess we need to first run "inplace upgarde " and then convert repository using "crx2oak"
