Running 3CX latest version in Amazon Cloud

[Phil Sbrana-Browning]

At the time of first install it was EC2 Instance with lightsail, and since install, I had an AWS notification that Debian 10 (Buster) was now out of date. But now I am concerned to run apt upgrade, in case there are any any "gotcha's"
Obviously as this is self hosted in a private AWS cloud I am unsure. I would not want to have to re-install again, as the system is now in production. Is it safe to run sudo apt upgrade? from the console, or will a future 3cx upgrade debian version upgrade built in ?

First of, never run "apt upgrade" on a 3CX install. You risk updating dependencies that could break the system.

Usually, you use the 3CX Console to upgrade. If it shows an update, run it. If it doesn't, then you're up-to-date.

Don't use AWS notifications as source of info lol those are sent whenever the marketplace image gets updated (we get those for the 3CX image all the time.) Debian 10 isn't even outdated yet.

Hello,
As @ConceptsWeb say nerver use "apt upgrade" unless someone from our support tell you.
Normaly we upgrade the OS from the 3cx management consol.
Juste keep an eye on on our blog.
