I’m not touching this now!

Nothing I need in my configuration/use, so also don't see any reason to take this update, if that is the complete change log.

The Uptime Challenge thwarts an unnecessary DSM upgrade and reboot

Update 6 now appears to be withdrawn (it is inaccessible "403") ... following in the steps of Update 5 and the DSM7 preview.

-.-

I'm SOOOO glad I updated my systems before the release disappeared! Now my DSM is a rare and valuable collector's item! Woot!!!

It’s becoming the new norm recently– not very confidence inspiring

I think we’ll wait for 8 to install 7.

DSM7 will be out before anything else. I have decided unless its a major problem that needs patching, a security problem or anything like that, I will patch day1, apart from that, any patching will be done 1 month after the release.

I was suggesting that to be confident enough to install 7, I’ll wait until 8 is released.

Maybe... but there's already a post on the Community thread, suggesting that Update 6 "briked" a machine.

As always I'm thankful to the early adopters... Here ya go... 🍪

For what it’s worth, I’ve installed it on several different models with no apparent issues.

Is this all...? Not worth it. Prefer continue breaking my uptime record.

 

[akahan]

Oddly still not available for DS214* or DS414*...

Synoman, it was withdrawn, but was put back, and is available again...except for a few machines.

 

[Telos]

Spin the Update 6 wheel... take your chances...

Probably best to engage in "social distancing" from all Synology updates until at least the 14 day quarantine period has elapsed.

Ah, yes, sorry....
