+###### Upgrade Notes ######
+
+If you're updating from OpenVAS-7 to OpenVAS-8, please note the following.
+(See: http://www.openvas.org/install-source.html if you're unsure which
+version you're running.)
+
+Openvas now uses redis as a temporary database while running scans.  You will
+need redis installed and running, as well as hiredis.  See step 2 below on
+how to configure redis.
+
+Before running openvas-manager, you'll need to migrate the database.  Simply
+run:
+# openvasmd --migrate
