Upgrading AOS: Compatibility with AHV Version | Nutanix Community
Skip to main content

Currently, my AOS Version is 6.5, Nutanix requires upgrading to AOS 6.5.3, but I want to upgrade to a newer version. How do you know that the upcoming AOS version will not affect the current AHV version?

Hi Every new AOS comes with supported AHV or will show supported AHV version, all AOS are backward compatible with AHV. Once AOS is upgraded u will get notification to upgrade the AHV, which can be done after.

In the release notes of AOS you can see what AHV version is included.

 

Hope that works for you.

Thank you, 

So, when upgrading AOS, you will receive a notification to continue upgrading AHV.Please allow me to ask you one more question: When upgrading AOS, it will upgrade all nodes in the cluster, right? After upgrading all nodes, we will start announcing the AHV upgrade, right? Or after upgrading AOS on a node, do I have to upgrade AHV on that node as well? Thank you
