. The procedure
documented there should work, except that I don't think it actually works
straight from 1.3 to 1.6 or 1.7.
Your best bet is to upgrade to 1.5 and to 1.6 or 1.7(not released yet) from
1.5.

Erik.

Yes, you can migrate to higher versions than 1.3 and retain your data. If
you're interested in how to do that, I'll create a separate write-up about
it. As to whether the migration itself or the use of the new version is
completely without issues, I'm not sure. Especially the step to migrate
from one minor version to another (1.4->1.5->1.6) has been improving with
each release. The reason I was asking the question - and thanks for your
answer - is because I wanted to know if there are users who are in need of
migration from 1.2/1.3->1.6+. And you confirm that there are.
<<I am interested to the migration of 1.3 going to 1.4 or higher version
available.
Hoping to get your write-up the soonest.
Warm Regards.

Hi Ryle,
Your mails aren't appearing in my inbox, so I'm pasting your response
below:
Hi, thank you for your question.
On our case, we are still using the 1.3.46
release since the only
available pdf manual is only for 1.3 version.
Your point about the manual is fair. However, 1.4, 1.5 and 1.6 are
actually not too different from 1.3. There are differences, especially with
respect to how the UI is built and there are some more functions in later
releases, but there really shouldn't be anything removed.
Can we now migrate to higher versions of LSMB
without any issues and
retaining the data of the 1.3 setup?

Hi all,
Migrations have become considerably more controlled since the 1.5 release,
which introduces a smooth migration from 1.4.
As such migration paths do not exist for 1.1, 1.2 and 1.3, I'm eager to
learn if there are any users out there of these old versions, and, if
you're not migratiing, what's keeping you from doing so.
If you can't publicly respond to this inquiry, please mail me privately so
I can treat your information confidentially.
Thanks for your responses,
