Could I have confirmation (a nervous boss!!!) that:

Master Appliance running on 2.5.0.2 can go straight to 2.6.0.3

 

Thanks

Do you mean 2.5.2? 

Yes, 2.5.2 to 2.6.0.3 upgrade is OK.

Might be a few bugs around VLAN tagging and initial Appliance install, if you ONLY have IP´s on VLAN´s. I am working with support to have it fixed.

Will update here once it´s clear what the problem is.
