Thanks for your help.
I could understand that it is easier for upgrade whole system to newer
version. But the reason is that why I don't upgrade all system to
release newer, because I want to shorten downtime. Because now this PC
we use it for production.

But if it is no choice for us, this step, upgrade to newer fedora
release, we should follow.
