I'd like to rant for a minute. I am completely shocked at how much trouble some people have updating their FeeeNAS installation. People are losing data, pools, can't connect to shares, etc. They are leaving services, jails, plugins, and external servers connected to their FeeeNAS installation during the update. No wonder they are having major issues! I've not had these issues and I've been on the upgrade path since v9.1!
Before an update I always make sure to stop all services (SMB, UPS, SSH, etc.). I also stop all plugins and then stop their respective jails. I want to be sure that there isn't anything running that could cause a problem or get "corrupted" during an update. Again, to date, I've not had any update issues. (Disclosure: I'm on 11.1-U6 and will probably update to 11.2-U2 when it comes out in the next month or so)
I strongly advise others to follow my update practices.
