Hi Folks,

I have been running Freenas 9.1.1 for several years now without issue.. the lockdown has now given me sometime to investigate upgrading to the latest version if possible. My question to this forum is what is the best path for upgrade, is it directly to 11 or incremental to 9.2 then 9.3 etc... I'm using a bookable USB of Freenas running on a 32bit environment. I have access to 64bit hardware if needed for upgrades beyond 9.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks

So much has changed since then you might just want to start over with version 12 and import your pools. If you decide to do the upgrade though you likely have it correct, go each major version up incrementally. You'll also have no choice but to go to 64bit hardware.
