I would suggest as first step, migrate to 7.1.3 directly and not 7.1.2, but also if possible do it to 8.0.

The guidelines are those written in the upgrade guide, you need to follow those steps.

The reason for migrating directly to 7.1.3 is clear, SAG support policy will force you to do so in a short timeframe.

The same happened when 7.1.2 was out, 7.1.1 ran out of maintenance.

If you are starting the migration process now, do it to a SP wich is now “obsolete” is an error.

Just my humble point of view.
