Hello,

in order to finish our Puppet 4.x migration (and than Puppet 5.x, yay), 
PuppetDB has to be upgraded as well.

If I read the upgrade docs correctly, a direct upgrade from PuppetDB 2.3.x is 
not supported [1].
So in order to do this, an upgrade to the latest version for each major release 
is required:

2.3.x -> 3.2.4 -> 4.4.1 (-> 5.1.3 once we go to Puppet 5)

Is this correct?

Additionally, the release notes of PuppetDB 5 mention a hard dependency on 
Puppet Agent 5.x [2]
So for PuppetDB 5 _all_ agents have to be at 5.x first?
Or is it sufficient to have Puppet Agent 5.x on Puppetserver/PuppetDB hosts?
As we use Puppet also to manage desktop installations, upgrading all agent 
packages takes some time.

Regards,
Stefan
