So I only made it through about 2/3 of this thread and it seemed like it was going in circles.
I am still on CORE waiting to upgrade to SCALE. I had been told to wait for 25.04 (especially the .1 or .2 patch) because the jails replacement was going to be changing in 25.04 from 24.10.
My current CORE system has about 8 jails (Unifi, Plex, several Servarr’s, LMS, etc.). I also have an Ubuntu VM.
Now, I am pretty sure these will not migrate. I don’t mind setting them up again, in whatever the replacement for jails & VMs is (which I am still not sure of…), but this thread seems to indicate that the “replacement” is kind of in flux. Is that accurate?
Can someone answer these 3 questions:
- What is the replacement/migration path in SCALE for jails in CORE?
- What is the replacement/migration path in SCALE for VMs in CORE?
- Is now a good time to upgrade to SCALE from CORE if I rely on jails? I could probably do without the Ubuntu VM, but it would be a little painful.
- What version should I target? Is 25.04 good enough for me? Or wait for 25.10? 26.04?
- If I migrate to 25.04 now, will I have a bunch of maintenance or need to migrate my jails (or will they be containers?) and VMs?
NOTE: Yeah, I thought I had 3 questions when I started, then thought of a couple more and added them without updating the “3” at the top. Ooops. Not updating now since this has been quoted several times, and I will own the synaptic misfire.
