Resolved How to significantly upgrade MariaDB

[Zoo3]

Server operating system version

CentOS 7.9

Plesk version and microupdate number

18.0.43

Hi, I'm currently running MariaDB 10.2.44 and I'm considering upgrading to 10.6.x. I would like to know how to upgrade.
Can I upgrade from MariaDB 10.2 to 10.6 all at once? Or should I repeat the upgrade one by one like 10.2 to 10.3 and 10.3 to 10.4?

Thanks,

Upgrading from 10.2 to 10.5 is not a problem.
So I should use c7-mariadb-10.5-upgrade.sh to upgrade once to 10.5 and then to 10.6?

Is it too early to use MariaDB 10.6 on a regular basis? Is it safer to stay with 10.5?

It's safe to use MariaDB 10.5. It has 3 years of update support, which ends in June 2025

Check end-of-life, release policy and support schedule for MariaDB.

Thanks everyone.
It seems that MariaDB 10.5 is still suitable for the main application I'm running. I will try running on 10.5 for now.

Thanks.

So may I ask, did you use "c7-mariadb-10.5-upgrade.sh" to upgrade MariaDB 10.2 to 10.5?

Sorry for the late reply. Yes, I did use it.
