Well, what version are you upgrading from?

Normally, upgrade considerations are listed in the release notes. If you are more than one release behind you should read all of them.

Okay. I don't think 4.1 has any particular changes that you need to worry about when upgrading from 4.0 but again, check the release notes. For the actual upgrade just replace the files and restart the service.
