Hey @eranzo 

Quick question. I tried installing jumbo in R82 standalone lab, but its complaining that Gaia OS build has to be 627 or higher, but mine shows below. Any idea?

Andy

FW1 build number:
This is Check Point Security Management Server R82 - Build 690
This is Check Point's software version R82 - Build 760
kernel: R82 - Build 735

@the_rock Are you running an EA version or have you reinstalled since GA?

[the_rock]

@Chris_Atkinson Man, you are way smarter than I, haha. Literally I was writting a response when I saw your question. Yes, as a matter of fact, I am running EA version in the lab...any way to overcome that limitation or no?

Andy

[Chris_Atkinson]

@the_rock As far as I'm aware there isn't a workaround only a rebuild would solve.

Upgrade from EA to GA is not supported as stated as a limitation of the public EA.

[the_rock]

@Chris_Atkinson OKay, fair enough. I wont delete the VM yet, will play around with it and see if I can figure it out.

@eranzo If you know of any workaround, please be free to share and I understand 100% it would not be officially supported, but its not an issue, since its lab anyway.

Thanks a lot guys!

@Chris_Atkinson I find this really odd. So I reinstalled the lab using GA package, worked fine, rebooted, tried adding jumbo 10, gives same message, though for 2-3 seconds, I saw it in the list in web UI.

Not sure what else could be an issue now.

Hey guys,

Sorry for the trouble...my colleague and I uploaded brand new R82 GA clean image to eve-ng and all worked fine after. I will report tomorrow if any issues with the jumbo.

Thanks again.

Andy

Almost 24 hours after install in the lab, all good!

From all the tests I had done after jumbo install, policy push seems way faster.

Is central deployment for smartconsole supported on ElasticXL?
When i tested it only upgrade the first member within the cluster.

Running mgmt on R82 T10

[Chris_Atkinson]

@Magnus-Holmberg certainly for VSNext it's currently not (PMTR-108539) but will confirm.

[Magnus-Holmberg]

@chrno  sure VSNext i understand, but i mean regual active/active ElasticXL.

@eranzo Customer asked me last week, any idea when next R82 jumbo release might be out?
