I have a question about the snapshots to rollback an OPNsense version. Refer to "Safely upgrade to 22.1 beta and possibly roll back - boot environments FTW!" at https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=25540.15 (https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=25540.15). I really appreciate Patrick's step by step of the process to be able to roll back if an update goes bad.
I have been using this to get to 25.7.6 and now have seven old snapshots going back to 24.7.12. I image that using 'bectl destroy' can eliminate the old ones but I would like to get a blessing from someone who knows more that I do.
So, can I enter 'bectl destroy 24.7.12' to eliminate the oldest one and not affect the later ones? Suppose for some reason I want to keep 25.1.10 but delete 25.1.12. Can I do that and then be able to return to any of the remaining ones without a problem? Thanks for any comments.
You can delete any one you want to see gone and keep everything else. You can even use the UI for that nowadays. System > Snapshots.
Thanks. I hadn't seen System - Snapshots before.
Just for context: was added in 24.7.3.
Cheers,
Franco
