I have a Linux based 15.5 SP6 install and o now have the option to upgrade Debian via updates. I know to do a backup and download off the computer. Has there been any issues with upgrading this way? Looks like the process takes approx.20 minutes to do. Also will they still be on 15.5 SP6 when done or 16? Seeing if anyone had any issues with upgrading this way.
Thanks, Ed.
 
Debian = Debian. 3CX = 3CX. So if you check the box to upgrade Debian, you'll have an upgraded Debian. 3CX shouldn't be touched. Do note that 3CX only supports this on installs based on the 3CX ISO although I've done it in other cases. But if you follow best practices as far as taking a backup and copying it off the box and doing the update off hours/during maintenance window there shouldn't be an issues. Takes like 20 minutes to do a fresh install and restore the backup and less than that if you are in the cloud.
