We've been using proxmox through version 7 and on to version 8. Were currently stuck at 8.1.4. Anytime we try to upgrade to 8.2 or beyond I get a no hard disk found error in the gui install.


We historically have had it as a standard RAID1 with 2 virtual disks. I have tried this in HBA mode on the raid controller but the same result.

Any idea?
 
Nope... Tried everything I could think of. I'm hamstrung a bit on more intensive troubleshooting due to the fact we only have 4 hosts and all are in production in one way or another. Were a pretty big company though so I think at this point our next move is just a hardware fresh, as the servers are a bit on the older side anyways and were running out of time on support for version 8.

For context though I'm a network guy who is good with unix so while I'm "in charge" of these servers... I'm also probably not the most knowledgeable for the issue I'm encountering. The majority of our network is on vmware and I asked those guys to look at it and the best I go was a shoulder shrug and a snarky comment of "shoulda put your vms on vmware"...

I am confused, if you are upgrading an existing PVE why/where does GUI install come in?

If you are doing a new install and running into boot issues, you can give this option a try: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Install_Proxmox_VE_on_Debian_13_Trixie

Thank you for the link, I'll give it a try one we get out of change freeze here.

The reason is, again as stated above, I'm not overly knowledgeable in servers... I'm a network guy. So my thinking was if I can't get it to work via a clean install, than I would likely encounter issues doing an in place upgrade. Being these 4 hosts are all in production with literally nothing to test on, I was trying to avoid it. I have a home lab, but could not recreate the issue were encountering at the office.

But reading through that link, it seems like this could do the trick for us.
