Database Upgrade

Note that the database schema is automatically upgraded when needed. All you need to do is to ensure your xwiki.cfg file is correctly configured to perform the migration. Here's a relevant excerpt from the xwiki.cfg file:
#-# Whether migrations are enabled or not. Should be enabled when upgrading, but for a better startup time it is better to
#-# disable them in production.
xwiki.store.migration=1
#-# Whether to exit after migration. Useful when a server should handle migrations for a large database, without going
#-# live afterwards.
# xwiki.store.migration.exitAfterEnd=0
#-# Indicate the list of databases to migrate.
#-# to upgrade all wikis database set xwiki.store.migration.databases=all
#-# to upgrade just some wikis databases set xwiki.store.migration.databases=xwiki,wiki1,wiki2
#-# Note: the main wiki is always migrated whatever the configuration.
# xwiki.store.migration.databases=
#-# disable them in production.
xwiki.store.migration=1
#-# Whether to exit after migration. Useful when a server should handle migrations for a large database, without going
#-# live afterwards.
# xwiki.store.migration.exitAfterEnd=0
#-# Indicate the list of databases to migrate.
#-# to upgrade all wikis database set xwiki.store.migration.databases=all
#-# to upgrade just some wikis databases set xwiki.store.migration.databases=xwiki,wiki1,wiki2
