Upgrade from 4.5.6 to 5.0.2

[danny.sierra@omtech.net]

Hi guys i got a zimbra 4.5.6 open source on a suse 10.1 and i want to upgrade it to 5.0.2, the thing is that i read that i have to upgrade first to 4.5.10 and then to 5.0.2 is this right? well i told you my plan to upgrade and let's see if this is correct

1. Upgrade 4.5.6 to 4.5.11
2. Upgrade 4.5.11 to 5.0
3. Upgrade 5.0 to 5.0.2

you believe this will work, or should i be more careful by upgrading for each version i mean 4.5.6 to 4.5.7. then 4.5.8, etc, what do you think about it? any opinion i'll apreciatte a lot

So 4.5.6 > 4.5.11 > 5.0.2 is fine.
However, it looks like you'll need to switch operating system platforms as well (OpenSUSE 10.1 > 10.2)

-Be sure to use the exact same zimbra version (4.5.11) when doing the platform switch, then upgrade to 5.0.2
