Distribution Upgrade
Version 9.4.5 was the final version to support Ubuntu Xenial as our operating system distribution. In order to upgrade to 9.7.3, you must be running Bionic as the operating system distribution.
You can check the distribution in use by an appliance in the Appliance Status view of the portal. The "Base Distribution" listed should be "bionic". If it is "xenial", the appliance distribution needs to be upgraded.
For help on the upgrade process, please refer to the following instructions. This update is not done automatically to prevent unexpected downtime.
