Things took a *lot* longer than I had hoped during the "embiggen the VM" phase as the legacy VM required a little bit more work to upgrade in the OSUOSL Ganeti cluster. Additionally the backend MySQL DB servers (operated by OSUOSL) are 5.5 and 5.6, the latter which would support Confluence 6.1.0 doesn't have the appropriate innodb settings to support our upgrade right now. While attempting to get us to at least 5.10.8, I discovered that there are additional MySQL library changes which we need to incorporate into our image to make everything happy. What made this whole endeavour complicated was needing to actually perform *three* upgrades rather than one, going from 3.4.7 => 3.5.17, then 3.5.17 => 5.0.3, and finally attempted 5.0.3 => 6.1.0^W5.10.8. The first two required significant data migrations, upgrading from some old tables from MyISAM to InnoDB, and then Confluence's own migrations on top of that. Suffice it to say, *tons* of disk I/O. We saturated disk I/O on the MySQL cluster more than once during this process. As it stands right now, 5.0.3 is up and running, and things appear sane. I'll keep an eye on things and re-evaluate the upgrade path to 6.1.0 once I can discuss with olblak our options a bit more. Cheers - R.
