Hi Team,

We are planning to move our Environment from CQ5.6 to CQ6.1

Is there any checkpoint document or link  to refer.

Checkout the pages below- 

• Adobe upgrade instructions - https://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/aem/6-1/deploy/upgrade.html

• Release Notes -  https://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/aem/6-1/release-notes.html

• Known Issues with 6.1 - http://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/aem/6-1/release-notes/known-issues.html 
  Issues which may impact the upgrade process-

  • Update to 6.1 from 5.x and 6.0+CRX2 using crx2oak fails if installation path contains a space.
  • Update to 6.1 from 5.x and 6.0+CRX2 fails on Windows due to backslashes written to FileDataStore.cfg
