Thank you for the feedback on the previous rc release, we have one more small set of updates to test before releasing 6.12.4. Highlights include:
- Resolved an issue with VMs on the macvtap interface not being able to connect to the Internet
- Additional IPv6 improvements
- The delay before auto-closing notifications is now configurable (see Settings/Notification Settings)
- Fix the custom network DHCP subnet options on the Settings/Docker Settings page
If you are already on 6.12.4-rc18 this should be a simple update, no need to change any settings. If you are coming from an earlier release please see the 6.12.4-rc18 announce post for info on how to solve macvlan issues and other changes.
Upgrade steps for this release
- As always, prior to upgrading, create a backup of your USB flash device: "Main/Flash/Flash Device Settings" - click "Flash Backup".
- Update all of your plugins. This is critical for the NVIDIA and Realtek plugins in particular.
-
If the system is currently running 6.12.0 - 6.12.2, we're going to suggest that you stop the array at this point. If it gets stuck on "Retry unmounting shares", open a web terminal and type:
umount /var/lib/dockerThe array should now stop successfully (This issue was resolved with 6.12.3)
- Go to Tools -> Update OS, change the Branch to "Next". If the update doesn't show, click "Check for Updates"
- Wait for the update to download and install
- If you have any plugins that install drivers (NVIDIA, Realtek, etc), wait for the notification that the new version of the driver has been downloaded.
- Reboot
