    Good day to all,
    I have a VPS running Ubuntu 18.04.5 LTS (GNU/Linux 4.15.0-124-generic x86_64) and ISP Config 3.1.15p3. This is a Production server currently on-line AOK.
    I have been planning on updating/upgrading both its OS and ISP Config, however I have 2 doubts after reading the tutorials and a series of posts on updating to ISP 3. My questions are:
    1. Would you recommend to first updating ISP Config to version 3, and as a second step, then upgrade my OS to Ubuntu 20?
    Or, would it be better to upgrade it the other way around?
    and
    2. I use Cloudflare on my websites to try to maintain my server IP private, do you know of any reason that could get in the way of both ISP Config or OS updating?
    Thanks for your help!

    1: it doesn't really matter, as long as you run the ISPConfig update script after updating your OS to reconfigure services. And go through the perfect server guide for 20.04 to install eventual missing packages and tweak your config accordingly.
    2: no, that should not be a problem.
