Restored from a 9.0 system to a 9.1 system -- What now?

[anewcomb]

First of all I should say I am a FreeBSD newbie, but I am trying to learn. You know ... for science. I recently ran out of disk space on my 9.0 server. So I did a dump, reconfigured my partitions adding more space, installed a minimal installation of 9.1 and then did a restore.

Everything seems to be running fine. My question is what (if anything) should I do next. There were about 15 system files that did not get restored, but I think that affects mostly users and passwords that I can re-create. Should I update the system to make sure everything is current since this is 9.1 and not 9.0? If so, what is the best way to do that.

Thanks in advance!

If you dumped and restored everything, it's actually a 9.0 system now. Try it:
% uname -a

Either a source-based or freebsd-update(8) can be used to update the operating system.

You are absolutely correct! I never thought to check, but I guess that makes total sense. I will look into upgrading if there is anything that might affect my system in 9.1 vs 9.0.

Thanks for the help!
