Hi All,

I tried to do a sysupgrade for my system which I thought to be 7.1.1 and wanted to upgrade to 7.1.2 (and afterwards 8.0). So I carried out a sysupgrade, rebooted and I was surprised when executing uname that I got back 7.1 instead of 7.1.2. It seems I didn't screw up anything but that's exactly the reason why I am asking: does sysupgrade only support upgrade to subsequent (follow up) releases? Don't get me wrong, that's not an issue for me. I just want to make sure that I indeed haven't screwed up anything and now I can carry out an upgrade to 7.1.1 first, then to 7.1.2 and finally to 8.0. Thanks for any hints in advance!

Best regards,
r0ller
