You can upgrade your entire Ubuntu server from one revision to another with dist-upgrade.

First, you must ensure the new version repositories replace the existing repositories in your server’s /etc/apt/sources.list, then simply issue the apt-get update.

Finally, perform the actual upgrade by typing:

sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
