Update Plex Media Server from Version 1.16.6 to 1.25.7

I run a Plex Media Server V 1.16.6 on a QNAP TS-869 Pro, FW 4.3.4.1967. I have about 45000 (forty five thousand) CD´s ripped on my NAS (~ 18 TB). I don´t want to loose my Plex Metadate, wich took about 2 month to build. Is there a save way to update to V 1.27.5 without loosing the Plex Metadata. How can I backup the PLEX Metadata on this QNAP to be on the save side?

Kind regards Felix

You can either manually create a shared folder which points directly to your PMS Library directory ( /share/CACHEDEV1_DATA/.qpkg/PlexMediaServer/Library is the default location )

or

After you have created a shared folder pointing to the data,
You can then use FileStation to create a ZIP file of all of “Plex Media Server”.
