Hi, 

I'm interessted by the topic because in some time (2024) I will need to
upgrade my server too, so currently I'm running 3.0.x and whould upgrade to
the last version in Debian whatever_version.

  Does all ACL are replicated to the new server with this method ? 

  With the replication method can I upgrade from 3.0 -> 3.8 (for example)
  without passing through the other versions 3.2, 3.4, 3.6 ? 

Regards
