Kernel Ugrade

[mhbosch]

Hello,

i have three Server with proxmox. With a new lxc i have the Problem, i cant start it on a Clusterpartner.
I read something here but have no soluton found.
But i found a difference in the Kernel.

The System who i can start the lxc have:

proxmox-ve: 6.3-1 (running kernel: 5.4.103-1-pve)
pve-manager: 6.3-6 (running version: 6.3-6/2184247e)

The other two, i cant start have:

proxmox-ve: 6.3-1 (running kernel: 5.4.73-1-pve)
pve-manager: 6.3-2 (running version: 6.3-2/22f57405)


and

proxmox-ve: 6.3-1 (running kernel: 5.4.73-1-pve)
pve-manager: 6.3-2 (running version: 6.3-2/22f57405)

Maybe it is a Kernelproblem?
Bit i dont find a way to update the Kernel.
apt-get dist-upgrade its no solution.

How can i upgrade the Kernel?

Hi,

without any information about why the container doesn't start this will be hard to debug. Please post the task log at least, alternatively run pct start <Container-ID> --debug and post the output here, ideally between [CODE][/CODE] tags.

Bit i dont find a way to update the Kernel.
apt-get dist-upgrade its no solution.

You may need to run apt-get update first and then apt-get dist-upgrade. If that doesn't work, please post the output of these commands here, ideally between [CODE][/CODE] tags.

Finally, please upgrade your Cluster. PVE 6 is not supported any longer. Upgrade to PVE 7 [1] and after that maybe all the way to PVE 8 [2].

Hello Stefan,

thanks for the reply. In this Thread i want to understand, to upgrade the Kernel.
I have twice the proxmox-ve: 6.3-1 (running kernel: 5.4.73-1-pve). The Runnig Kernel is 5.4.73-1-pve.
Once i have proxmox-ve: 6.3-1 (running kernel: 5.4.103-1-pve).

I dont understand, the differnce between 5.4.73 and 5.4.103.

With dist-upgrade there is no change to 5.4.103.

I will show from a system with 5.4.73:

apt-get update && apt-get -y upgrade && apt-get -y dist-upgrade && apt-get -y autoremove && apt-get -y autoclean

A upgrade to V7 or 8 i will shift to a later time. Or can i make a system enviroment with different Version?
I don´t want to upgrade all three system at the same time,

My wish is first to set the version of running pve kernel to 5.4.103.

When you wish to held to debug the start, here my log.
