Notes of work performed
SUMMARY: As work is performed, record here or in the specific section below
Bock-Specific PreUpgrade Concerns/Complications
This section describes issues raised on the mailing lists that may need to be researched or addressed prior to execution of the Plan.
This section will only list complications that are specific to Bock. The Upgrading from Debian 11 documentation describes many "general" steps to prepare the system for an upgrade. Things listed in the official documentation will not be duplicated here.
Prevent changes during and after cloning and/or the upgrade
* How would we shutdown MM3 to prevent posting between the time we copy the disk image and the time testing is successful?
* Would shutting down Postfix for that period suffice?
Firewall Woes
This was a concern with the upgrade to Debian 11. There are no known problems for Debian 12.
