I'm pretty sure it's very simple and smooth.

Backup /etc/slurm

If you have some accounting happening, backup the relevant database (it
will be listed in either slurm.conf or slurmdb.conf).

You can update while slurm is running too - get everything prepared, update
your slurmdbd service, restart it.
Update your slurmctld server, restart the daemon.
Drain your nodes, and as each empties, update them.

Cheers
