Upgrade PAN OS 10.2.7-8 to 11.2.x

[L.CTIN]

Hi Guy,
I have 2 PA-3440 and 1 Panorama VM to manage them. My PA-3440 devices are on version 10.2.7-h8 and Panorama is on version 11.1.0
I am on the way to upgrade Panorama and PA3440 devices to version 11.2.3-h5 or another latest version recommended (please recommend me), I tried using the Validate button to see the upgrade path, but I don't see any results
Could you please advise me the download and install path. Additionally, Tell me how many reboots?

for both the firewall and panorama, all you need to do is:

- download 11.2.0

- download 11.2.4-h2

- install 11.2.4-h2

- reboot

starting from 10.1 you can skip up to 3 versions (10.1 can immediately go to 11.1 skipping 10.2 & 11.0, 10.2 can immediately go to 11.2 skipping 11.0  &11.1)

only 1 reboot needed

Thanks for the reply. So 11.2.4-h2 is the current recommended version?

11.2 currently doesn't have a "preferred" release yet

thanks so much. So I'll stop at 11.1.x
