The time it takes to upgrade the SN6600B

I am planning to upgrade my SN6600B from v8.2.1a to 9.1.1c.

Please let me know how long the upgrade will take.

Hello,

the upgrade says up to 45 minutes, but usually, it takes about 30 minutes.

Be sure to read the "Fabric OS v9.1.1 Release Notes", for example:

Nondisruptive upgrade: First upgrade from FOS v8.2.x to FOS v9.0.x.
Then install TruFOS Certificate and proceed with the upgrade to FOS v9.1.x.

Hello haku1,

The non-disruptive upgrade path would be: v8.2.1a >> v9.0.x >> v9.1.1c
You may then upgrade to the latest v9.2.0a, if desired.

Each upgrade may take approximately 30-45 minutes.

Review the FOS release notes prior to performing the upgrades:
