upgrade pmm server on AWS and preserve data

[sandrotosi]

Hello, on https://www.percona.com/doc/percona-monitoring-and-management/deploy/server/upgrade.html#upgrade-server it’s suggested to terminate the currently AWS instance and re-instantiate a new one with the updated AMI, but what about the data?? how can we preserve the historical data and import them in the new/updated instance?

Thanks.
