upgrade Server Version: v1.125.6 and migration to new server

Hi All,
I have this particular scenario and not sure how to proceed on it.

Currently have Immich on raspberry pi and its running Server Version: v1.125.6
  • The machine is very low on disk space ~90% full
  • Portainer is used to manage the containers
I do not think upgrading on the current machine will be feasible due to space limitations and a newer image causing disk issues.
https://github.com/immich-app/immich/releases/tag/v1.125.6 I am aware of the release notes for that version

I would like to migrate to another VM on a much more powerful host, I am unsure the best way to do this.

I believe I need to deploy a new Immich stack on the new VM and then attempt to do a backup on the old host and restore on the new one of the database.

Secondly should I be installing the version that is on the current old machine or attempt to do an upgrade to a later version?
