Proxmox VE 2.0 final release !!!

Thank for your on time release. I am wondering how I should go with upgrade. I can build a new server and go with clean install and restore vms. Or easier way, just use upgrade script. But wiki suggests first way. Is there a real advantages of going with clean install?

Thanks
 
Good to see it's finally final :p

Now I just have to find some time where I can take the server down for an hour or 2 and not get too many complaints.
 
we planned to migrate our 6 node environment by getting one node empty of mvs, updating and then moving vms again to that node.

as clustering system is completly diferent our approach is not possible. can we just dump mvs, move tgz over the network and import them again in new(updated) nodes?
 
thanks for quick response.

so, just to clarify and calm my admin-paranoic brain: any dump/export can be imported in 2.0 with 100% compatibility and without performing any additional task?

depends on your VM´s and VM settings, especially windows KVM guests could complain about some hardware changes, in rare cases you need to boot in safe-mode to get networking again. but test, test and test.
 
Upgrading from RC1 to 2.0 Final gives me this:

Any suggestions how to fix this?
 
Great news, congratulations to the proxmox team and everyone who waited for this to happen!
 
Just wanted to say how impressed I am with 2.0.

Have just moved 6 hosts plus SAN backend from 1.9 to 2.0 and it went seamlessly.

Many thanks to all the Proxmox team - you guys are absolute legends.

Holy cow! Proxmox VE 2.0 is absolutly amazing!!! I've got to admit Proxmox appears to be one of the best open source projects out there!

Look out VMware, here comes Proxmox :D
 
Yes have to agree Proxmox VE 2.0 is great works right out of the box. Easy and simple to use, but importantly it really maximises the hardware efficiently. I tried using alternatives but my host machine really struggled. This is a very good quality product. Well done to the team.
