One of two servers not updating

[wav3front]

Hi,

I have two Proxmox VE servers, one of them currently runs 8.4.1 and the other is stuck at 8.3.0

The 8.4.1 did just update to latest proxmox version, but the other one won't update. Even though when clicking Upgrade I get "Your System is up-to-date".

What am I missing?

Neither of them have a enterprise subscription.

Thanks
Alex

Click the 'Refresh' button first. Also make sure a valid repository is configured. You can also use the command line (and maybe show us the output?): https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/pve-admin-guide.html#system_software_updates

EDIT: If you put both servers in a cluster, please make sure you have a third vote or each node will not work properly when the other is powered down.

The reason your Proxmox VE 8.3.0 server isn't updating is likely due to it still using the enterprise repository, which requires a subscription. Since you don’t have a subscription, you'll need to switch to the no-subscription repository manually.


Here’s how to fix it:

1. Disable the enterprise repo (if it exists):

sudo sed -i 's/^deb/# deb/' /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pve-enterprise.list

1. Add the no-subscription repo:

echo "deb http://download.proxmox.com/debian/pve bookworm pve-no-subscription" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pve-no-subscription.list

1. Update package lists:

sudo apt update

1. Upgrade to the latest Proxmox version:

sudo apt dist-upgrade

1. Reboot the server (if prompted):

sudo reboot


This should bring your node up to version 8.4.1 like the other one.
