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.
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.
Thank you for sharing that information with us. Much appreciated.
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 almost fucked it up because I forgot to update the ceph repo, but besides that all smooth.

I’m so glad that things worked out for you. Have a great day!
Anybody use the tteck Proxmox upgrade script to upgrade? I’ve heard good things about it
Not yet but I’m willing to give it a go. Thank you for bringing that to our attention
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.
I just did it, i hadn’t realised 8.0 had gone gold…
Process was simple enough to be honest… I did the in place upgrade detailed here :
