Help me understand

[Meya]

A couple days ago, I updated to TrueNAS 12.0 from 11.3 with a few issues. As expected, some jails don't work anymore and I'm trying to understand why. In order to do this, I need some help understanding a few things.

The first one is if I'm on the latest version of TrueNAS. This is what I see on the system info section:

The second one is about updating my jails. Currently, I updated all my jails to 12.0 since doing it via the GUI wasn't working. But when I do

Code:

iocage fetch

I see this:

Does that mean I can update the jails to 13.0 even though TrueNAS is only 12.0? I'm confused about this.

Trying to fix some jails, when doing

Code:

pkg update

I see the following:

and my understanding is that the pkg version is 12.2 but the kernel version is behind (12.0). If so, How do I make them match? What happens if I say 'yes' instead of 'no' when updating the jail? I'm asking because trying to update my nextcloud jail, I'm trying to search for a missing file called PDO and this is what I get when searching for it:

I love learning :)

No you can not. Your jails can't run a newer kernel version than the base system.

Please post the output of iocage list in code tags.

I saw that my freebsd version is 12.2 but the jails are behind:

Version inside my nextcloud jail:

Maybe I can update to 12.2 for my jails then?

Yes you will need to if you want to keep things up to date.

Run this command for each jail from the base system substituting "jailname" with the name of your jail to do an upgrade.

iocage upgrade jailname -r 12.2-RELEASE

I am doing that then.

What does the iocage fetch command do? I see a list of versions but I don't know if it is for FreeBSD or for the jails. Also, do you know how to make the kernel match the pkg version?

What does the iocage fetch command do?

This just caches the fetched files in /mnt/<your pool>/iocage/download, and extracts them to /mnt/<your pool>/iocage/releases.

Get your jails updated first and then you can get pkg synced by running pkg upgrade
