I've just failed (mea culpa) in upgrading from 4.4-1 to 5.2. I followed the instruction from the wiki, however I missed one important (as it turned out to be very important later) of the preconditions - correct repository configuration.
I didn't use enterprise repository and also no-subsrciption repository, so I updated only Debian Jessie packages after executing "apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade" commands. After reboot I had only three commands from pve family: pvecm pvesm pveum.
I could not login to GUI, but the "pvecm status" command returned correct information:
I decided to add no-subscription repository to the /etc/apt/sources.list file:
but there was nothing to update or install.
Finally I decided to set up install repository and update repository key:
I successfully updated (rather installed) system by running "apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade" commands.
After restart everything seems to be OK - node is visible and operable. Although the goal has been achieved, I wonder if something has been missed?
Could I ask Proxmox support team for confirmation of this method?
