How to upgrade MySQL 5.5 to 5.6/5.7 or MariaDB 5.5 to 10.X on Linux?

Answer

Automatic Upgrade Tool via UI (Beta)

In the latest Plesk Obsidian 18.0.58 we have released our new tool to upgrade MariaDB to a supported LTS branch from Plesk UI.

Note: this tool is not available on CloudLinux.

Our tool checks configuration, performs DB backup, configures MariaDB package repositories, performs the upgrade, and runs necessary post-upgrade actions.

Currently, this function is in the public Beta stage.
To enable the feature, add the following lines the panel.ini file.
