Should be fine, but not a bad idea to read the release notes for at least the other main releases, v6.10.0 and v6.11.0.

In prep for the upgrade, I am about to backup the unraid server content and I have just ran the upgrade assist app (awesome app) here is the results

So my transition shouldn't be that bad once I sort out the plugin that have potential issues, nice work LT team..

 

QQ. Is it ok to go through RC releases before a stable release is offered, any concerns I know some do this on non prod servers, but I only have one 😛

Hey All

Quick questions, apology in advance if this is not the correct place to ask.

 

I am on 6.9.2, never needed to make changes until recently added larger storage capacity, and discovered I'm miles behind.

 

Wow ZFS look at you unraid! Well done LT..

 

So right now I use unRAID array with an optional "Cache" all are XFS format and cache drives are btrfs. Apart for backing up the USB flash drive , any other gotcha's before I drive into 6.12 stable when released?

 

My play is to go straight to 6.12?

 

PEACE

Kosti
