This is how eg. poudriere works to build packages for all the different supported OS versions. While you can run an older jail on a newer host, you cannot do it the other way round with a newer jail on an older host. Your order of operations has to be upgrade the host first, and then the jails. Upgrading jails with freebsd-update(8) can be tricky, as f-u detects the current OS version by asking the kernel, and that gives the wrong answer when running an older jail on a newer host. That's why there is a '--currently-running /release/' option in more recent freebsd-update(8). If you haven't got a recent-enough freebsd-update then there's a trick -- so upgrading a 10.3 jail to 11.0 would looks like: # env UNAME_r=3D10.3-RELEASE freebsd-update -r 11.0-RELEASE upgrade and then do all the usuall 'freebsd-update install' steps similarly. Other methods of upgrading jails generally work identically to how they do when upgrading the host system.
