NetBox version

v3.4.0

Feature type

Change to existing functionality

Proposed functionality

Upgrade guide have a lot of manual steps because there are a lot of files/folders that I don't think it should be there.

My suggestion is to move folders/files like /opt/netbox-X.Y.Z/netbox/media/, /opt/netbox-X.Y.Z/netbox/scripts and /opt/netbox-X.Y.Z/netbox/reportsto a folder /var/netbox or something like that.

Use case

Upgrade any netbox version easier

Database changes

No response

External dependencies

No response
