No, it works like any other package upgrade.

As far as I can tell from experience with my upgrade on my CentOS 7 box,
yes, that's all that should be required. I did update some of the SELinux
contexts for 4.x and other tweaks so it would be good to hear how smoothly
things go as I haven't gotten any feedback yet from people upgrading from
3.x to 4.x.
Thanks,
Richard
