Hi all,

I will upgrade the PA-3200 from pan OS 10.1.9 to 10.2.7-h3, do I need a base image of 10.2.0 for the upgrade process?

because i don't see documentation for the upgrading to 10.2.0

Thanks

hello!

you need to download the base image, but you do not need to install it

Hi @reaper,

I have discussed this step with my team, but the Palo support portal for OS 10.2.0 is no longer there

but can this step be done?

1. Download and install the latest preferred PAN-OS 10.1
3. reboot
2. Download and install 10.2.7-h3
4. reboot again
5. finished

Is version 10.2.0-h2 a base image?

Thanks

This step can be done without having to download and install base image 10.2.0, I have done it and it works.

You don't need to install 10.2.0 but it does need to be downloaded before you can install a maintenance release

Okay got it, PAN OS 10.2.0 is now back on the Palo portal
