I upgraded yesterday OH from 4.3.X 32bit to 5.1.0 64bit using backup-reinstall-restore. It went smooth, but I found out that the charts are not being refreshed and looks like the data was not saved since the upgrade. On closer investigation I found out that there was no persistence configuration in place, so I created one. The mising configuration was flagged in the health problems. It seems to be OK now, but was that an installation or restore glitch? Is it “by design” or “unexpected feature aka bug”?
It is a breaking change:

If you did not have a configuration in a .persist file before, the upgrade script should have created it with persist all strategy.
I assume you did not run the upgrade script, as you simply copied your configuration into a new install. Other automatic upgrades will also not have been performed.

I had to do the full install (32 to 64 bit) and restore from a backup. I used on 4.3.X whatever was the default setting - I never messed with persistence or I don’t remember doing it…
