Which is the best way to upgrade a cluster of pfSense from 2.4.5-RELEASE-p1 to 2.5.0 version?

[ramses.sevilla]

Hi everyone,

I have a cluster pfSense in production over two SUPERMICRO SuperServer 5018D-FN8T that have the 2.4.5-RELEASE-p1 versión.

Some Services that the cluster has supporting are:

• Certificate Authorities
• User and Server Certificates to OpenVPN and IPsec
• DHCP Relay
• IPsec VPN
• OpenVPN
• VLAN's over the LAN Interface

I haven't a large knowledge of pfSense. All that I need do I do from WebConfigurator I don't use nor I know much the console.

Can you tell me wich would be the best process and steps to upgrade from 2.4.5-RELEASE-p1 to 2.5.0 version my pfSense cluster?

Best regards

You really should not do it,
2.5 has too much bugs at the moment, using it on a production cluster is not a good idea.
And downgrading is much harder then updating ;)
