-# Stop QuickBuild server of previous version, you do not need to stop agents since they will be auto-upgraded after server is upgraded.
-# Extract installation package of new version to a new directory.
-# Open a command line window, and switch to the _bin_ sub directory under the *new version*'s installation directory. Run command _upgrade.(bat|sh) <install directory of previous QuickBuild version>_ to upgrade previous QuickBuild version in-place.
-# QuickBuild in previous installation directory will be upgraded, and you can now start QuickBuild server in previous installation directory and agents will be auto-updated. It will take a while for them to appear in the build grid.
+# Stop your QuickBuild server. You do not need to stop agents since they will be auto-upgraded after server is upgraded.
+# Extract installation package of new version to a temp directory.
+# Open a command line window, and switch to _bin_ sub directory under extracted directory above. Run command _upgrade.(bat|sh) <install directory of current QuickBuild>_ to upgrade QuickBuild in-place.
+{note}We now suggest to use upgrade script instead of migration script. The upgrade script will update target directory to new version so that QuickBuild installation directory remains unchanged.{note}
+# After the upgrade, start your current QuickBuild instance. Agents will be auto-updated after server startup. It will take a while for them to appear in the build grid.
