Upgrading AMQ.

[sh...@accenture.com]

I need to upgrade a number of AMQ installations, from 5.5.[0|1] to 5.6.0, without losing any persisted messages. I don't see any documentation on how to upgrade an existing AMQ (please point me at the right FM to R, if I've missed it).

What's the procedure for doing this?

I would add that if you have a maintenance window available - a v. low
traffic time of day or week - where there are typically no persisted
messages, it is going to be least disruptive to use that time window to
perform an upgrade.

Copying across the store *might not be necessary*, in which case you get a
(slightly) smoother swap-in of the 5.6.0 broker instance.

5.6.x is backwards compatible with the 5.5.1 stores, you should be fine upgrading, 
I'd copy one store aside, upgrade and make sure that you can work through the 
process.
