If you plan to migrate your system from OMV2, please check if all used plugins are ready for OMV3. Please note that the whole operating system is upgraded. Because of various database issues in OMV2 that can not be fixed during the upgrade you might run into troubles after the system has been migrated. So please consider to reinstall your system with OMV3. Look here how to upgrade your system.

You can also install OMV3 on every Debian 8 based distribution, e.g. using the netinst ISO images, Raspbian, … , if your platform is not supported. You will find a guide here how you can do that.

If you have any questions, feel free to post them in the forum.

OMV 2.x will be EOL since 12.06.2017.

Thanks to Let’s Encrypt and 1blu all openmediavault websites can be reached via HTTPS now.
