I have my existing servers on Amazon Linux, now we are planning to upgrade it to amazon linux2... How do we do that ?

Do we have a set of steps to upgrade or do we need to launch a new Ec2 instance using Amazon Linux2 Image and re-install our apps on top of it? Please suggest

From Amazon Linux 2 FAQs:

Can I perform an in-place upgrade from an existing version of Amazon Linux AMI to Amazon Linux 2?

No, an in-place upgrade from the existing Amazon Linux image to Amazon Linux 2 is not supported. We recommend that you test your application on a fresh installation of Amazon Linux 2 first before migrating.
