Update PVE 8.1 to 8.2 unable to upgrade

[benjaminkramer]

Hi yesterday my system makes an update from Version 8.1 to 8.2

But I am unable to finish the upgrade: I get the following error:

Any solution to finish my upgrade? I am using PVE with ZFS.

Hello,

please use apt-get dist-upgrade or apt full-upgrade instead of apt upgrade.

Can you post the output of apt update?

Ich habe ein Workaround erhalten vom Proxmox Enterprise Support:


Backups von wichtigen Daten/VMs zu machen.
Könntest du dann als Workaround folgendes versuchen:

Die Datei /etc/kernel/postinst.d/kdump-tools sichern:

cp /etc/kernel/postinst.d/kdump-tools /root


Die Datei /etc/kernel/postinst.d/kdump-tools editieren (z.B. mit nano oder vim.tiny) und folgende Sektion suchen (sollte so um Zeile 43 beginnen):

if test "${MODULES-most}" = most; then
# Switch from "most" to "dep" to reduce the size of the initramfs.
# "netboot" and "list" are expected to be already small enough.
KDUMP_MODULES=dep
fi


Diese Sektion komplett auskommentieren, sodass sie so aussieht:

#if test "${MODULES-most}" = most; then
# # Switch from "most" to "dep" to reduce the size of the initramfs.
# # "netboot" and "list" are expected to be already small enough.
# KDUMP_MODULES=dep
#fi

Die Datei abspeichern.

Nun nochmal versuchen, kdump-tools zu purgen:

apt purge kdump-tools

Das sollte nun hoffentlich sauber durchlaufen und initrd/initramfs korrekt neu generieren. Die letzte Zeile sollte sein:

Purging configuration files for kdump-tools (1:1.8.1) ...

Und dpkg -l | grep kdump sollte keine Ausgabe mehr liefern.

apt dist-upgrade

Wenn ihr Proxmox auf für die Arbeit einsetzt (System kritisch), kann ich euch nur raten Enterprise Support zu kaufen.


Ich hoffe euch damit geholfen zu haben, falls bei jemanden, der selbe Fehler auftritt.
