Many folks on this list have migrated to Apache CloudStack from CCP.
Backup your environment, you can use this script, it will dump the 3 DBs
cloudstack needs and contents of /etc/ into a tar.gz file
Before you start, make sure you can test DBPASS decryption process
run
> DBPASS=$(java -classpath /usr/share/cloudstack-common/lib/jasypt-1.9.0.jar
> org.jasypt.intf.cli.JasyptPBEStringDecryptionCLI input="$(cat
> /etc/cloudstack/management/db.properties | grep db.cloud.password | awk -F'('
> '{print $2}' | sed 's/)//g')" password="$(cat
> /etc/cloudstack/management/key)" | grep -A2 OUTPUT | tail -1
> echo $DBPASS
Backup script..

-----------------------
With the backup above, you can move to next version. In case something
goes bad, install old CCP RPMs, restore mysql DBs, revert
/etc/cloudstack/ - you should be able to start your cloudstack.
Or you can just stop cloudstack service, stop mysql and take a
vmware/xen type of snapshot.
My personal opinion, I'd say goto 4.5.x first - i can attest its the
most large scale tested version so far.
Bake it, and then try 4.8, if not, you can fallback to functional 4.5..
