same here ,imho an IMPORT BUG so that remote server become unavailable until a restart happens or the KVM is connected ..

 

[mishki]

How to solve the problem so as not to get into iRMC / LiLO after losing the server:

1. use tmux/screen so as not to break the update.
2. apt update && apt upgrade -y && systemctl restart networking.service

Same on my side. Happened to me as well. Upgraded via GUI / VNC web console, last messages seen are:

Setting up openvswitch-switch (2.15.0+ds1-2+deb11u1) ...
ovs-vswitchd.service is a disabled or a static unit not running, not starting it.

After those, lost network connectivity.
