How to update Proxmox in So you start
Do you have a Proxmox server with So You Start? This could be for you
I hvae found a process to update proxmox without getting in a mess and asking for support, its a bit long winded but does work. I have used it to update from 6 to 7 and from 7 to 8.
The process:
- run your update to point of a reboot
- login to So You Start
- disable the monitoring
- open a KVM window (you can then catch any errors and fix)
- on the list of links under the name, click
IPMI
- click
Via your web browser (KVM)
- on the list of links under the name, click
- run the below script to sync grub
reboot
the host- watch the KVM window and make sure you see the Proxmox welcome text
- if you get issues
- you have a console that you can debug and fix any issues
- make notes on anything you need fix
- if everyrthing worked
- login into Proxmox and checked everything is happy
- close the KVM window
- enable the monitoring
The below script will make sure all the boot drvives have grub in sync, you will need to change for your drive list.
#!/bin/sh
grub-install /dev/sda1
grub-install /dev/sdb1
grub-install /dev/sdc1
grub-install /dev/sdd1
