Should not be very hard if you plan it well. Here is how I would do it:
- make a mirror of your server
- perform the upgrade on the mirror, record all the issues/tricks
involved in the upgrade, test, make sure everything is smooth
- once everything works, move over the stuff involved in the upgrade
Ideally, you should have a development machine that works just like your
production server - this is not very expensive especially with
Intel/Linux, and is definitely worth it.
