Centos 6 to Centos 7 upgrade

I'm wanting to upgrade my server from Centos 6 to Centos 7 so I can make the most of the latest MySQL. Has anyone had experience doing this and if so, did you experience any problems with Virtualmin afterwards? Is there any forum notes on this anywhere as I haven't been able to find any.

Howdy,

Unfortunately, CentOS doesn't support upgrading from one version to another.

For going from CentOS 6 to CentOS 7, you'd generally need to perform a migration to a new server. There are directions for doing that here:

Thanks for that... would have search around all week on that one :) Have done server migration a few times now but was hoping to avoid it this time. Cheers
