Apologies for asking such a basic question. Where can I find new versions of Palo Alto OS (also updates) for an AWS EC2 installed Palo Alto firewall. I need to manually download all files.
Also if you accidently attempt an incompatible OS type will the existing system warn you ?

No need to apologize for the question! Finding new version and update for the Palo Alto Network VM-Series firewall in AWS is an essential task for maintaining security and functionality.
Regarding the question about accidentally attempting an incompatible OS type, it's essential to be cautious when upgrading to new versions of PAN-OS. While the firewall may not explicitly warn you about an incompatible version during the upgrade process, it's designed to protect against any issues caused by a version mismatch. Before performing an upgrade, make sure to read the release notes provided by Palo Alto Networks for the specific PAN-OS version you are planning to install. The release notes will contain important information about new features, known issues, and any potential incompatibilities with previous versions.
To minimize the risk of issues during an upgrade, follow these best practices: Always back up the configuration of your current firewall before performing any upgrade. Review the release notes and any upgrade documentation provided by Palo Alto Networks. Test the upgrade in a non-production environment before applying it to your production firewall. If you are unsure about the upgrade process or potential compatibility issues, consult Palo Alto Networks support or engage with a certified Palo Alto Networks partner for assistance.
