How to stop PVE Kernel upgrade

[elvinmammadov]

Hello,

We would like to disable PVE Kernel upgrade during Linux update. Could you please let me know how I can do it? Thanks.

Hi,

what do you mean by that "kernel upgrade during Linux update"? And why do you want to do that?

If your goal is to prevent newer kernel's from being booted due to an issue you have encountered with a newer version, you can pin the kernel with the proxmox boot tool. Just execute proxmox-boot-tool kernel pin <kernel-version>. You have to replace <kernel-version> with a kernel version reported by the command proxmox-boot-tool list.

To pin a kernel and prevent upgrade:

sudo proxmox-boot-tool kernel list

then inset your desired kernel to be pinned with

sudo proxmox-boot-tool kernel pin <version to be pinned from list above>

Now your kernel will stay pinned until unpinned with

sudo proxmox-boot-tool kernel unpin
