+  Before upgrading ejabberd to 16.09, please make sure to backup your 
+  ejabberd data using:
+ 
+     % sudo -u ejabberd -H ejabberdctl backup /path/to/backup/file
+
+  In some cases, ejabberd may fail to start, for which a workaround is to 
+  remove the schema.DAT file from /var/spool/ejabberd before starting, and
+  then restoring everything from the backup using:
+     
+     % sudo -u ejabberd -H ejabberdctl restore /path/to/backup/file
