Update database 1.4.2 to 1.8

[hugovd]

Hello
I installed a server zabbix 1.8. I wanted to know if it was possible to simply update my mysql database from version 1.4.2 to 1.6 and subsequently 1.8 and if so how?
Thank you in advance.

yes, that should be possible. read upgrade instructions for both 1.6 and 1.8, follow them.
make sure to use latest version in each branch to perform the upgrade (that is, use db patches from latest versions)
