Resolved MariaDB (10.3.39) how to easily update to a newer and supported version?

[onki]

Server operating system version

ubuntu 20.4

Plesk version and microupdate number

18.0.57 Update #5

My Pleask is still using MariaDB 10.3.39.
This seems not to be supported anymore and I need a newer version in order to update my websites to Joomla 5.

Is there an easy (GUI) possibility to update?
Plesk does not offer a later version.

Best regards
Onki

Plesk 18.0.58 has a GUI to upgrade MariaDB. It's still in beta, so make sure you have a backup of your server before using it.

Plesk Obsidian 18.0.58​

Added the ability to upgrade MariaDB database servers to the latest version in the LTS branch via the Plesk interface. The feature is currently in beta. To enable it, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

[databaseManagement]
features.canBeUpgraded = 1

I just updates to 18.0.59.
The panel.ini was modified accordingly.
Where can I find the feature after the modification?
Is a restart required?
