Hello

We have a VM on 8.2.15.2 and we want to upgrade it to 8.3.0.3

the 8.2.15.2 is on VM and it's designed for 750 devices or at least we follow up the recommendation from the guide back then

Now they are growing and we will need to have more than 750 now that we are creating a NEW VM because of the migration to 8.3.0.3 the requirements for more devices will be different I mean we would like 1500 devices instead, the HD size is bigger and more ram and all that

When you are importing the config it's just the config and just that ? so there is no issue if we create the VM with better specs like more RAM, more HD space, etc?  and then import the backup.

Second question 

Can I go directly from 8.2.15.2 to 8.3.0.3 with the 8.2.15.2 backup? I saw before that it was not possible but then I think I saw it again and it seems it's possible

and on the steps, it doesn't seem I have to go to any other version of the 8.0.x before going to 8.3.0.3

Thanks

Hi,

Yes, Restore will just restore the config and not server details.

If 8.2.15.2 is on RHEL, you can upgrade to 8.3.0.3 directly.

If 8.2.15.2 is on CentOS, you have to install 8.3.0.3 AirWave with RHEL and restore 8.2.15.2 backup file.
