v3.0 Release Notes

Release Overview

This release is a major rework of the app, making it simpler to use and more self sustaining, while providing the same functionality and making it compatible with Nautobot 2.4.

  • The same workflows (presented as jobs) are available to run individually, but now also all together via a dedicated new "Run All" job. This also comes with a new job result view, to indicate the step-by-step progress of the full upgrade workflow.
  • The app can optionally include pre/post checks via the Nautobot Operational Compliance app.
  • Models that define Software Versions and Images are now available in Nautobot Core and are now supported in the OS Upgrades app (instead of those provided by older versions of Device Lifecycle Management).
  • Azure blob storage can now be used as a source for software image files.
  • Harden the Run All Job to be more stable.
