I have deleted the kernel.smp.disabled in system tunables.

Did you reboot after changing that?

Yes. I had to remove it manually from boot/loader.conf.

Currently rebooting and I will let you know in 2 minutes how it goes.

FYI - SG-1100 Sitting on "Please wait while the update system initializes" for over 10 minutes.

Will continue to wait. Still have active internet.

Smooth upgrade here as well on a Super Micro C2758. Thank you!

Mr_JinX

The update seems to go well, the only issue i have found is updating the service watchdog package, which sits on "Please wait while the update system initializes" on a number of my boxes. Other packages seem to be updating okay.

Upgrade went smooth, all seems to be well. Thank you!

Smooth upgrade on SG-4860-1U.
Only issue I had was DNS Resolver didn't start on its own but I could've been my config.

I just upgraded from 2.4.4.p3 to 2.4.5 p1. It took a long time but it working okay so far. I noticed that ram usage is high than before.

Update from 2.4.5. to 2.4.5_p1 went smooth and without issues here.

Hi

Updated all okay on PC Engines APU2 from 2.4.5 to 2.4.5p1. Wasn't having issues before and all seems good on the new version. However memory usage went from 25% to 35% after the upgrade although that might be due to the upgrade processes still hanging around so will reboot when I'm not going to disturb others.

I updated a XG-7100 from 2.4.5 to 2.4.5-p1. The only issue I observed was that the pfSense-coreboot package said it got upgraded during the update, but after the update the package still showed it was the old version. Attempts to update it post-update hung at "Please wait while the update system initializes". This issue is quite similar to the one Mr_JinX reported in this thread. On the CLI I found a seemingly hung instance of pfSense-upgrade running.

I let it run for more then an hour and it never completed whatever it was doing, but the firewall was otherwise working fine. I killed it and tried the package upgrade again and it worked normally.

I suspect this problem might be related to the way our firewall comes up. We are using FRR and OSPF on the WAN side of this device, and after the boot is completed and the LAN side is reachable, it takes ~30 sec or so for OSPF to come up and the device to have internet access on the WAN side of things.

It's possible the package upgrade was hung up by this: https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/10610
