Depends on the installation ...
On some installation I make sure the "data" is out of the data directory
(external references only - since data is often under different backup
policy than configuration). Create a copy of the data directory, run the
new geoserver against the copy.
If the machine is scripted, configured via rest api so machines can be
provisioned consistently, I update the script with the new war and let it
try setting up a new VM. Not sure if that counts as sophisticated or not.
