    For beginners here: do not run apt upgrade!! Read the documentation on how to upgrade properly.

      It’s always good to read the docs, but I often skip them myself :)

      They have this nifty tool called pve8to9 that you could run before upgrading, to check if everything is healthy.

      I have a 3 node cluster, so I usually migrate my VMs to a different node and do my maintenance then, with minimal risks.

    ZFS now supports adding new devices to existing RAIDZ pools with minimal downtime.

    Yes!!

    Yay, it only took 2 hours and the help of an llm since the upgrade corrupted my lvm metadata! Little bit of post cleanup and verifying everything works. Now I can go to sleep (it’s 5am).

    Wasn’t that bad, but not exactly relaxing. And when my VMs threw a useless error (‘can’t start need manual fix’) I might have slightly panicked…

      Thanks for posting this and reminding me to never go back to Proxmox. My Proxmox server killed itself and all VM’s twice before I moved onto HyperV.

    Not sure I want to check how far behind I am. How rough are these upgrades? I’ve got most things under Terraform and Ansible but am still procrastinating under the fear of losing a weekend regiggling things.

      I just did three nodes this evening from 8.4.1 to 9, no issues other than a bit of farting around with my sources.list files.

      Not noticing anything significant, but I haven’t tried the mobile interface yet.
