I am responsible for sysadmin work on two internet-facing servers - www.stovebolt.com and mail.stovebolt.com. Both of these servers are production servers, and we have no test or devel servers. (Small hobby website with very little money.) I want to upgrade from FreeBSD 8.4 RElEASE to FreeBSD 10.1 RELEASE using FreeBSD update. I've done this before, and I don't think I'll run into issues with the binary update, but I want to make sure I do everything right and in the right order. Is there a document that describes this process with detailed steps that doesn't leave anything out? I did find this: <http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-stable/2014-November/081088.html>; But I'm wondering if there is an official document that describes every step of the process.
