thanks, david - this helped me upgrade my 3 node cluster from 7.4 to 8.1 successfully! i held off on upgrading for a long time until i watched your tutorial, well explained and so easy to follow.

Yeah, it can be nerve wracking compared to upgrading other hypervisors Normally you just point at a file and after a reboot, the new version is installed But Proxmox did provide a process and it works well So glad the video helped with your upgrade

your content is super helpful as I am a complete noob and I am also a visual learner... I love being able to follow along in my lab with you as you did your upgrade... it worked with out issue.

Good to know the video was helpful I must admit, it would be better if this could all be done from the GUI But I suppose since Proxmox VE is based on Debian and different things need doing for different deployments, it may not be that practical

As a non linux user found the earlier vid on upgrading Proxmox 7 to the latest version pretty easy and follow this to get upto 8.0.3 was just as easy thanks. My 3 containers and 2 VM's came up no problems.

@dave Planning to tackle proxmox 8 SDN? There is no good video out there on it. Something in your usual deep dive will be really helpful.

@TechTutorialsDavidMcKone 5 ай бұрын

It is something I'll be looking into although there are quite a few ways to implement it At the moment I'm trying to automate more things and put more services into containers But I'll get round to it

@howtoinvest4yourself241 4 ай бұрын

how would you go about backing up your VMs on your older version before the upgrade if all your VMs are on your local hard drive and not connected to a NAS or SAN?... As far as everything else you have shared here it works properly as you shown here

@TechTutorialsDavidMcKone 4 ай бұрын

An OS upgrade shouldn't impact the VMs Even if they introduced newer virtual hardware, it should be backward compatible at least for a while, similar to ESXi But if you wanted to backup a VM, you could always plug in an external USB drive Then run a backup job from the GUI and point it to the external drive I can only speculate where all the files are as I just use the backup tool There are config files, hard drives and snapshots that would need copying and they are kept in separate places So even if you connected in using SFTP for instance to copy them to you local computer, you'd need to know where everything is

I have a couple warnings. When I was first setting up this server I was a noob, (still am). I crated a zfs pool on a drive. I then wiped the drive completely and created a new pool. I'm now getting the following "WARN: storage 'zfs4tb' enabled but not active!" How do I get rid of this completely?

@TechTutorialsDavidMcKone 9 ай бұрын

If we're talking about a zfs pool you no longer need I would think you can delete it in the GUI Navigate to | Disks | ZFS and remove it from there If that doesn't help then you can open a shell on the server or SSH into it Type in zpool status That should list the state of pools including the names of the drives being used It's best to have an empty pool before you delete it To remove a drive from a pool you can use this command zpool detach To delete a pool it's this command zpool destroy You might need to add the -f parameter to force its removal e.g. things are messed up and you can't remove a drive

super nice but... I missed the final: "see guys, the VMs and containers are WORKING after upgrade" ;-)

@TechTutorialsDavidMcKone 11 ай бұрын

That would have been too helpful Part of the fun of upgrading things is wondering if they'll still work afterwards

@@TechTutorialsDavidMcKone yeap, but you said and showed: yours is LAB so not much installed on it, no customisations etc. And there is no problem to lose the LAB one - worse when your home stops turning on the light because Home Assistant is down because Proxmox is down because "admin played upgrade" last night ;-)
