SCALE™ | Enterprise™
TrueNAS SCALE is an appliance built from specific Linux packages. Attempting to update SCALE with
apt
or methods other than the SCALE web interface can result in a nonfunctional system.All auxiliary parameters can change between TrueNAS major versions due to security and development changes. We recommend removing all auxiliary parameters from TrueNAS configurations before upgrading.
- After updating, clear the browser cache (CTRL+F5) before logging in to SCALE. This ensures stale data doesn’t interfere with loading the SCALE UI.
