It's not documented in the admin guide, but I learned that a lot of insiders know their way around well in the dir ./util/

So:

backup your db and hub dir,
go SSH, cd into your hub's dir, and
command ./util/udall

Usually, there should not be more to it. There is some DB update tool for problems, though.

Normally, that would be correct, but in this particular case, upgrading from 4.6, it is not true. Definitely look at the release announcement linked in the first comment, which has the details.

Thanks for the heads up, @Tanja , @Michael's prior (more experienced) answer was not yet visible when I answered.
