upgrading from r151038

SunOS nappit 5.11 omnios-r151038-91d640aafa i86pc i386 i86pc

Yeah... I recently resurrected my old nappit from a possibly dead MB to another MB that I have handy, and I am thinking of upgrading to newer version

Upgrading OmniOS

illumos based server OS with ZFS, Bhyve, DTrace, Crossbow, SMF and Linux zone support

omnios.org

Given how old mine is, is the upgrade process still applicable?

• # beadm create <appropriate-backup-name>
• # pkg set-publisher -r -O OmniOS r151046 core omnios
• # pkg set-publisher -r -O OmniOS r151046 extra extra.omnios
• # pkg update -f -r --be-name=r151046
• init 6

Anything I should watch out for for this upgrade?

Thanks

I’d recommend checking hardware compatibility first, then backing up the current configuration before upgrading. A gradual upgrade would be the safest approach.
