Hi PAN Community!
I'm just wondering if there's a dedicated page/link I can refer to if I want to confirm if a certain release is recommended or not. I don't want to raise a TAC case everytime. Thanks!

Hello @micahacruz,
Another thing to consider is what fixes and known vulnerabilities exist in the current version youare running and what version ou plan on going to. I highly recommend reading the release notes, they are pretty thorough as compared to other companies release notes.
For my company, we have a 30 day remediation requirement for any known vulnerabilities. Right now we are on the latest 8.0.x and dont seem to have any issues.
Cheers!

I see there's a lot of fixes in 8.0.12 -- so are they now recommending 8.0.12 for install or is it too fresh and they're going with 8.0.11-h1? Or because 8.0.11-h1 was a rushed hotfix, should I continue to recommend 8.0.10?
Thanks.

I'll second the request that TAC maintain a permanent kb type page with the current recommended releases. This is helpful for upgrade planning.

I'll third this request.
While I have a lab enviroment where I can properly test all software releases and verify they'll work for us, I know that many users don't. Having a simple webpage to refer to, or even a little symbol on the 'software' page on the support webpage would be a much better user experiance than having to contact TAC simply to get the recommended software release.
