Can I smoothly upgrade from one LTS to next LTS release? - Ask Ubuntu


question ubuntu release process. migrations n n+1 releases expected?

assuming have server installed ubuntu 14.04 lts. smoothly upgradable ubuntu 16.04 lts via apt-get upgrade ?

assumptions:

  • scope software
  • therefore assume given hardware supported on both releases (upgrading , to)
  • that's why, before upgrade asked make backup able revert in case of failure

yes, can upgrade 1 ubuntu lts version next one, skipping non-lts releases in-between. it's intended work way , gets tested.
