To do 25.07 or not?! That is the question!
-
Hello
Please share your positive and negative updates about this release.
(I am actually still on 24.03 and skipped the previous release as it had issues (rebooted by itself every 5-6 min), and I was suggested to do a "clean" reinstall (e.g. wipe out my drive), and I did not feel like doing so.)
TIA

I may be biased.
But I've run that upgrade many, many times on a lot of hardware and I'd recommend it! -
Just did the upgrade from 25.07RC to 25.07RELEASE.; Absolutely no issues whatsoever. On a 4200 the total downtime was < 2 mins. I say that because monitoring didn't trigger except to log the reboot itself.
Environment:
Netgate 4200
LAGG interfaces
Multiple VLANS with an IOT secure cell
Dual stack IPv4/v6 (RA managed mode with DHCPv6/DDNS) -
I'd wait. I just bricked a VM doing it from 24.11. Got 403 Forbidden soon as I pushed the upgrade button and SSH stopped working, or more accurately it would auth then immediately boot me out... and it just locked everything up for 30 minutes. I finally tried a reboot and the rc.init was all screwed up. I just reloaded from the last snapshot.
Now I have another mini PC with the same issue, no Proxmox snapshot I can backup on that one.... ugh.... I may have to rebuild that one from scratch... son of a.....:(

@Zermus Same thing here on physical. Oh, well.
