I'm planing to upgrade my SonarQube server from version 3.5 to 5.1. I have took the database backup. I have some questions to be answered before upgrading. That's why I' here.

Question1 : Actually is it possible to upgrade from 3.5 to 5.1(It seems a big deference between these two versions).

Question2 : What are the things I should do before upgrading except database backup

Thanks for any help

Follow the guide: http://docs.sonarqube.org/display/SONAR/Upgrading

And nope you can't upgrade directly from 3.5 to 5.1. As per aforementioned guide:

Nevertheless, if in your migration path you have an LTS version, you must first migrate to this LTS and then migrate to your expected version.

So you'll have to do a mid-stop at SonarQube 4.5.7 (versions are listed here).

P.S.: 5.1 really is a sub-optimal choice for upgrading, it's an intermediary version known for having performance issues. Suggest you use the latest instead (note that 5.5 is just around the corner, the next L.T.S. being 5.6).
