## Important notice
In general a new major version (e.g. v2, v4, v5) of the image comes with a new, preinstalled major node version!
If you are updating an existing installation to a new major version (e.g. from v4 to v5) you have to perform some additional steps inside ioBroker! For more details please see official ioBroker documentation: [EN](https://www.iobroker.net/#en/documentation/install/updatenode.md) | [DE](https://www.iobroker.net/#de/documentation/install/updatenode.md).
You might avoid these procedure if you use my "Best practice" hint for "upgrading your ioBroker container".
In any case make a backup first!
