I need similar requirement that need to upgrade from SVN 1.6.17 (old Ubuntu Sytem) to latest SVN which is 1.14.5 version (New VM). Will following method is best works for this migration? I am planning to build parallel environment with latest Infra -SuSE 15 VM?

• svnadmin dump PATH/TO/REPO > dumpfile on source

• svnadmin create PATH/TO/REPO on target (SVN 1.8 X64 is OK)

• svnadmin load PATH/TO/REPO < dumpfile on target

Any suggestion would definately help the process of this migration. TIA
