If you mean backing up the MySql database there is no change.

>From the command line: mysqldump -uyouruser -pyourpassword databasename >
filename.sql

where:

youruser = your database user name
yourpassword = the password for your database user name
databasename = the name of your MySql database
filename.sql = whatever name you want to call the file with your data in it
(does not need the .sql)

If you mean upgrading from 3.0 to 3.6 read the INSTALL.* files as a
starting point for upgrading.
