Proxmox Upgrade

Good day all. So, has anyone moved up to PVE 8.0? If so, was the process as effortless as many have made it out to be.

I almost fucked it up because I forgot to update the ceph repo, but besides that all smooth.

Anybody use the tteck Proxmox upgrade script to upgrade? I've heard good things about it

Updated 3 nodes in a cluster, no problem at all.

Just update your sources with a $sed command, update the system, make sure to run pve7to8 a few times during that process and then start upgrading.

I had pve 7.x running on a spare laptop that I had kicking around. Everything was working well until the upgrade. Until I realized that I couldn't spin up a new vm after it's creation. Took me a minute to realized that my issue was that I chose the default CPU type (x86-64-v2-AES). I then changed that to x86-64-v2. Then all was well in the world. At least my world that is.

I just upgraded a few minutes ago.

All went smooth except for an ssh script I use, because the ssh algorithms changed. It was easy to fix though.

Good to hear

I usually give it a few weeks before I upgrade to a new major version just to be safe.

That's exactly what I usually do. But, I knew that if something did go wrong rolling back to an older version wasn't going to be a big deal.
