Hi Ammad, When you upgrade a template, the default type is 'USER' not 'SYSTEM', it will NOT be used by system vms and virtual routers. During the upgrade, the template type will be changed to 'SYSTEM' so it can be used by system vms and VRs after upgrade.
You need to backup the database before upgrade. In case of upgrade failed, please revert the database from backup, everything should be ok. -Wei On Tue, 18 Jan 2022 at 08:21, Ammad Syed <[email protected]> wrote: > Thanks Wei for the guide. > > Can you please confirm one thing.
