Personally: I use "update" to refer to any version number advance & "upgrade" to refer to any SKU or service/subscription level advance. So, e.g. I would consider going from Ubuntu 20.10 to 21.04 an update, and going from Zabbix free to Zabbix paid an upgrade. But in practice to avoid confusion in online discussions I use them to mean what passing either update or upgrade to the package manager of the OS in question does. > > Rgds, > Toomas > _______________________________________________ > openindiana-discuss mailing list > openindiana-discuss@openindiana.org > https://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss > _______________________________________________ openindiana-discuss mailing list openindiana-discuss@openindiana.org https://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss
