Is this outdated or not applicable to servers?
- Rezo 11y agoThat is correct, upgrades are not enabled between LTS releases at this time, also for servers AFAIK. Either way, personally I would never upgrade a server in place these days. Treat your servers like cattle not pets: Rebuild from new base image, validate, put into LB/proxy, terminate old stack.
- poooogles 11y agoThis. Our upgrade path was changing a variable in our packer config. Literally the easiest upgrade ever.
- collinmanderson 11y agoYou should hold off doing in-place upgrades using "do-release-upgrade" until 16.04.1 (due August/September). However, you can also "upgrade" your stack by building a new image using 16.04 from scratch, and that doesn't need to wait until 16.04.1.
