I have run upgrades on several test VMs and they did upgrade, but I don't think I would upgrade anything in production in place. And this is not just advise I would give for CentOS ..

I find it much smoother in the long run to reinstall and move data.
What about cloning a system to a new partition and then upgrading this?
