Upgrade steps for this release
- Read the release notes
- 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 Connect, NVIDIA and Realtek plugins in particular.
-
If the system is currently running 6.12.0 - 6.12.6, 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.
-
If you have a recent release or Unraid Connect installed:
- Open the dropdown in the top-right of the Unraid webgui and click Check for Update, then press More options and switch to the Next branch. You may be prompted to sign in to access the Next branch. Select the appropriate version and choose "View changelog to Start Update". More details in this blog post
-
If you don't have the Check for Update option in the upper right corner:
- Either install the Unraid Connect plugin or upgrade to 6.12.10 first. Then check for updates as described above.
- Wait for the update to download and install
- If you have any plugins that install 3rd party drivers (NVIDIA, Realtek, etc), wait for the notification that the new version of the driver has been downloaded.
- Reboot
