Hi All
We're a bit late to the party with getting our 8.4 cluster upgraded to 9.2, but I've finally been given the go head to get it done
I've done all the necessary prep work with the pve8to9 tool and I have no show-stopping issues showing. I've also performed a test upgrade on a cluster of mostly identical servers which went without a hitch and all guest VM's/LXC's on the production cluster are backing up to a remote NAS successfully.
My only concern is the potential for the removal of the systemd-boot package. To clarify, I am not being warned about this by the pve8to9 tool, I just want to make sure I've got my ducks in a row for when i run apt-update on the nodes, and if I do have any issues booting after the update, the best options for recovery.
My nodes are all zfs-on-root RAID1. 3 of the 4 have Secure Boot disabled in the BIOS, one has it enabled. (Dont ask..) Other than that, the hardware is identical.
I have run efibootmgr -v, proxmox-boot-tool status and dpkg -l | grep grub on each host and the output is as follows:
Am I likely to run into any issues?
Kind Regards
