Hi @subramadluru ,

@subramadluru

If i upgrade from zip file, will it keep all current settings and info, how to transfer this new version?

See Upgrade guide

Update the contents of sonar.properties and wrapper.conf files (in $NEW_SONAR_HOME/conf ) with the settings of the related files in the $OLD_SONAR_HOME/conf directory (web server URL, database, ldap settings, etc.). Do not copy-paste the old files. If you are using the Oracle DB, copy its JDBC driver into $NEW_SONAR_HOME/extensions/jdbc-driver/oracle

For plugins, see this:

There was a change starting in SonarQube 8.5 where first-party language analyzer, authentication, and SCM plugins are now bundled into the core of SonarQube, no longer provided as plugins.

For more details I recommend reading this community guide: SonarQube v8.5 and Beyond: Where did all the plugins go?.
