Hi guys, we are finally upgrading to 7.8.2 from 7.8.0, Is there anything I should know in advance to make the process go as smooth as possible? I’m going to make my usual proj, tag and gateway backup and also IT will be doing a backup of the VM that the ignition is on. anything else? Thanks ![:thumb_right:](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/1X/2026e28c0c425034352c1b75807edf956adc75f4.gif ":thumb\_right:")
