Upgradepath FC Switch 8/24 (AM868A)

Hi, I want to upgrade a FC-Switch 8/24 (AM868A) to the newest v7.4.1.c. Which is the right OS path steps?

Now I have the Fabric OS 7.2.0a, I saw that there are many versions between 7.20a and 7.4.1c.

(7.2.1g, 7.3.2, 7.4.1a, 7.4.1.b) .

regards

Best, go to the next .x Level.

7.2 > 7.3 > 7.4

Use the latest Version in each Level if possible.

Hi,

Recommended Migration Paths to FOS v7.4.1c as per 7.4.1c release notes are as follows:

Migrating from FOS v7.3
• Any 8G or 16G platform running any FOS v7.3.x firmware can be non-disruptively upgraded to FOS v7.4.1c.
Migrating from FOS v7.2
• Any 8G or 16G platform operating at FOS v7.2.x must be upgraded to FOS v7.3.x before non-disruptively
upgrading to FOS v7.4.1c.
• Disruptive upgrade to FOS v7.4.1c from FOS v7.2 is supported.
• Firmware clean install to FOS v7.4.1c from FOS v6.4 or later without retaining any configuration is
supported..

Best Regards,

Raj
