I’ve updated two machines and had no problems, read the mailing lists and remember no problem apart from the boot loader.

Updated the boot loader before upgrading the pools, found the way for EFI is different then I remembered (mount EFI partition, copy /boot/loader.efi to it) but it worked just fine..

So, while I cannot 100% guarantee it’s without problems, I would expect no hiccups. And the new bootloader is only needed if/once you upgrade your pools, I actually run my laptop for a week with quite an old loader ;)

Cheers, Mathias

I'm planning to upgrade three production machines with existing ZFS pools to 13-stable. Is there anything I need to pay attention to wrt OpenZFS? Or should it be fully transparent, apart from updating loader?

My (limited) testing with VMs went without a hitch, but I want to make sure I don't paint myself into a corner.
