Make sure you have a console and a copy of your full Config and you should be able to jump directly if you use the jinstall Sent from my iCar > On Jun 14, 2020, at 1:18 PM, nikosi...@gmail.com wrote: > > It is true that the official path will tell you that you should follow from > 15 to 16 then 17 then 18 but I did around 30+ upgrades from 16 to 18 without > any problems. >> From 10 to 15 I guess you should go to 14 first but from 16 you can safely > move to 18 without any issues.

Re: [j-nsp] MX80 upgrade path 18.4R
I agree with Tobias. If the unit is in production, expect some interruption in services as this type of install is the most disruptive, but should be doable within a maintenance window. - Brian > On Jun 14, 2020, at 4:59 AM, Tobias Heister wrote: > > Hi, > > On 14.06.2020 10:50, Robert Hass wrote: >> I have old MX80 running 10.4R14.2. >> I would like to upgrade it to 18.4R. >> But what upgrade I should use ? >> 10.4R -> 15.1R and to 18.4R ? > > There are probably official upgrade pathes taking a dozen intermediate steps > (three LTS releases at a time or something like that is officially supported, > and starting from $some version in the 16/17 all releases are considered > LTS).

Re: [j-nsp] MX80 upgrade path 18.4R
It is true that the official path will tell you that you should follow from 15 to 16 then 17 then 18 but I did around 30+ upgrades from 16 to 18 without any problems. >From 10 to 15 I guess you should go to 14 first but from 16 you can safely move to 18 without any issues.

There are probably official upgrade pathes taking a dozen intermediate steps (three LTS releases at a time or something like that is officially supported, and starting from $some version in the 16/17 all releases are considered LTS). As The MX80 takes ages to do just one upgrade this would take days. Also it could be quite hard to actually get intermediate releases for the older steps (JTAC typically has them on request) I would suggest to backup the config do a usb reinstall to the target release and reapply the config. -- regards Tobias ___ juniper-nsp mailing list juniper-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp ___ juniper-nsp mailing list juniper-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp
