Upgrade from CQ5.3 to Aem6 using in-place upgrade

Avatar

Level 3

Hi All

I'm aware that there is an in-place upgrade from CQ5.6.1 to Aem6. There is also an in-place upgrade from CQ5.3 to CQ5.6.1. Does this mean that if we want to upgrade from CQ5.3 we have to use the in-place upgrade to CQ5.6.1 first then use the in-place upgrade from CQ5.6.1 to AEM6? Or is there a tool which will allow us to upgrade from CQ5.3 to AEM6 directly?

Refer to this upgrade documentation. 

https://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/aem/6-0/deploy/upgrade.html

in this topic, it states: for all upgrades from versions up to and including AEM 5.5.

No where does it state moving from cq 5.3 to 5.6 first. 

Also be sure to read: planning your upgrade at
