You have to:

1. build a fresh test installation of redmine 5.1 (do not migrate your data, you have only to test the code is working as expected)
2. check updates for all your plugins
3. test all of your plugins with your new fresh installation to see if they are working with redmine 5.1 (play many days with test data...)
4. now, assuming it's all ok with the environment you can migrate a copy of your DB into the fresh installation
5. perform rake tasks that migrate the DB (both vanilla redmine and plugin migrations)
6. if no errors occur and data are available you can be confident that all will work
7. fell free to plan the day for migration of your redmine instance
