I am getting ready to migrate a site from 2.5.28 to 3.3.6. All the advice and tutorials I read say to make absolutely sure that all components, modules and plug-ins are 3.x compatible.
I see a module and a few plug-ins for Akeeba that I cannot tell if these are compatible or not. Can you advise?

Modules:
Akeeba backup notification module

Plug-ins:
Installer - Akeeba Backup
JMonitoring - Akeeba Backup
Quick Icon - Akeeba backup noticication
system - One click action
System - System restore points

Thank you for your assistance

Modules:

Akeeba backup notification module - This is an administrator module, I can't get it to publish in 3.3.6, it appears to be obsolete.



Plug-ins:

Installer - Akeeba Backup - OK

JMonitoring - Akeeba Backup - OK

Quick Icon - Akeeba backup notification - Broken in 4.1.0, must be disabled. Expect a new release tomorrow (01/09)

system - One click action - obsolete

System - System restore points - OK

The obsolete extensions will be removed when Joomla! 2.5.x support is dropped. At this point they are just taking up space in 3.3.x, but not hurting anything.

Checking in again. I have had to go back and start over on the migration. I want to get an update from you on anything I need to do to Akeeba Backup Pro before I hit the Joomla auto-update button.
I have upgraded Akeeba Backup to 4.1.1 and I have made a screenprint of all Akeeba components, modules and plug-ins.
Please review my screenprint and advise on ANY actions I need to take before pulling the switch on 3.3.6.

Thank you for your assistance.

Bob,

You do not need to do anything special to Akeeba products prior to your upgrade. The ongoing parts are compatible with both versions and the obsolete parts are 3.3.x compatible enough to do nothing on your Joomla! 3.3.x site. You're good to go!
