Upgrading Ubuntu Server (10.04) using do-release-upgrade

I have a small server in work, essentially a desktop with Ubuntu Server 10.04 LTS. For the first time in it's life, I've started to get errors when running scripts involving large files.

So before I give up on it, I was thinking of maybe getting the newer version of Ubuntu Server 14.04.

I was wondering if anyone has any reviews or experience of using do-release-upgrade?

I probably won't bother if it's prone to failure.

Thanks
