I want to know if there is any way to specify the version I want to upgrade to. I mean, I have a server with 14.04 and I want to update to 16.04 and only this version.

Is there any way to tell Ubuntu to upgrade to this specific version and not allow to install any other (15.XX, 17.XX, 18.04 LTS...)

Thanks!

From: How to Update a Ubuntu LTS release to the next LTS Version (release upgrade)

apt-get update
apt-get install update-manager-core

Edit /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades and ensure the last line reads:

Prompt=lts

Then run:

do-release-upgrade -d

Note: -d option only until 18.04.1 comes out!

In Software & Updates. Go to Updates Tab. In option Notify me a New Ubuntu Version, You need to select For long-term support version. It will identify next available LTS automatically and prompt you for upgrade. Note that it LTS upgrade option will be prompt once point release is released i.e for Ubuntu 18.04 Point release is Ubuntu 18.04.1.
