+====== Migrate from 6.8 to 7.0 ======
+  * Deploying a V7.0 base version over a V6.8 can only be done from Linux shell.
+  * Java **OpenSDK 21** is a prerequisite for using V7.0.
+  * If you are on RHEL/Red Hat, you can upgrade Java using dnf ''sudo dnf install -y java-21-openjdk''
+  * If you are on Debian/Ubuntu (or any non-RHEL distro), use the provided ./install_java.sh script to upgrade Java (internet access required)
+  * If you updated java, make sure you switched the JVM using ''alternatives --config java''
+  * The Redpeaks update package provides a migration script which will do the following:
+    * Install a new instance of redpeaks, aside from Pro.Monitor.
+    * Migrate pre-existing artefacts such as keystore, reports, drivers and snapshots to the new instance
+    * Apply the latest snapshot in the new instance to recover the existing monitoring configuration
+    * Apply any existing license
+  * Existing plugins, integrations, agents and failover connections will continue working as before.
+  * Before executing migration script, do the following:
+    * Perform a configuration snapshot from Snapshot menu
+    * Restart the collector service
+  * **Migration:**
+    * Log into the VM via SSH and run following commands:
+  systemctl stop promonitor
+  tar zxvf Redpeaks-7.0.0_77.tar.gz
+  ./migrate.sh
+  * Follow the instructions of the migration script
+  * Once the new instance is online and running fine, you can remove old ''Pro.Monitor'' folders, users and services.
+**Note:**
+  * The update script has been tested on most Linux distributions, however, it might sometimes fail to start the service of the new instance.
+  * If that happens, try restarting the service.
+**Reverting the migration:**
+  * Shall you need to revert from V7.0 to V6.8, you just need to restart repdeaks service
