Question
What steps should I take before upgrading MariaDB?
Answer
We strongly recommend that you back up all of your databases before you upgrade MariaDB. It is also recommended that you keep a full cPanel backup of all of your user accounts before the upgrade. Below is a link to an article which contains a list of resources on backing up your databases before an upgrade: How do I backup MySQL databases prior to upgrading to a new version?
You should also take the time to review the recommended steps as documented by MariaDB in their official documentation: Upgrading Between Major MariaDB Versions
The WHM Interface has a tool to help install the latest version of MariaDB that is offered for your Operating System. More information on this tool can be found in the cPanel Documentation: MySQL/MariaDB Upgrade
