Hi

 

Please have a look at below link for upgrade procedure

http://www.symantec.com/connect/forums/updating-besr-85-ssr2011

Moreover when you install BESR 2011 on top of BESR 8.5 normally it would uninstall 8.5 & would prompt you if you want to save your job setting so you can click on yes for same & it will install BESR 2011

Also please see link for SCN below this would help you too see changes for 2011,  below link is for SCN 2011 & then SCN for 2010
