Dear all,
May I know if there's a safe way to upgrade from 24.1.10 to 24.7?
It seems like a huge update.
My safe way means if it fails or cannot boot after upgrade, I can revert back to 24.1.10 immediately.
Thank you.
If you are running OPNsense virtualised, take a snapshot of your VM.
If you are running OPNsense with ZFS, create a boot environment.
If neither, save your configuration and have an install medium for 24.1 ready before you update to 24.7.
Thank you for your reply.
I read the post saying there's an OS upgrade in 24.7 too.
I am using ZFS, am I still safe to use the boot environment?
Sorry that I don't have much knowledge to ZFS and BSD.
That's exactly the point of boot environments, yes.

I like the concept of "extra safe" updating, but would like to see this from GUI... :-)
Something like this? https://github.com/opnsense/core/pull/7749 ;)
Uiii, if I had posted some months ago I would have got the patent :-p
Thank you.
