does simply mysqldump --all-databases suffice? This is because I got below message although I did not plan to restore mysql db along on percona xtradb cluster node.

```auto
-- Warning: Skipping the data of table mysql.event. Specify the --events option explicitly.

```

Hi umarzuki;

See the below man page from MySQL for important information about the upgrade (i.e. incompatible changes):

[url][https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/upgrading-from-previous-series.html[/url]](https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/upgrading-from-previous-series.html%5B/url%5D)

"…If your databases include stored programs, use the [–routines](https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/mysqldump.html#option_mysqldump_routines) and [–events](https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/mysqldump.html#option_mysqldump_events) options as well. "

I see. This means that percona and mysql is compatible with each other
