I've recently updated from 6.x to 7.2. During that process, everything appeared to complete (and the server is online) but I get these errors from
Code:
apt dist-upgrade
and after hours of searching, I've not found anything related or helpful:

Hello,

Have you followed our wiki guide about the upgrade from Proxmox VE 6.x to Proxmox VE 7.x [0]?
Can you please provide us with the output of the following commands:

Code:
grep '' /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*
grep '' /etc/apt/sources.list
apt update

proxmox-ve: not correctly installed (running kernel: 5.15.64-1-pve) pve-manager: not correctly installed (running version: 7.2-11/b76d3178)
From the output of `pveversion -v` provided, the prefix message says 'not correctly installed` did you see any error during the upgrade process?

I would try reinstalling the following packages, but first let us see the output of the above commands:
Code:
apt install proxmox-ve --reinstall
apt install pve-manager --reinstall

Hi,
please check if the lvm2 package is correctly installed/reinstall it. That one should include the /etc/lvm/lvm.conf file.

since you or some script removed it and Debian tracks changes/removals for config files like this, you also have to pass -o Dpkg::Options::="--force-confmiss" to apt (it tells it to re-install config files which have previously been removed).

And same errors for the other four that show currently.

Also this might help, but I'm moderately lost in config files ATM:

Please always use apt dist-upgrade when updating Proxmox VE! Not likely the cause of the problem in this case, but using apt upgrade can lead to problems.

bridge 'vmbr1' - unable to find bridge port 'dummy0'
How does /etc/network/interfaces look like? If a bridge doesn't have a real port, you can use bridge-ports none.
 
I've used `apt dist-upgrade` for everything in the guide and every attempt otherwise minus a few to just get the error messages. The errors originated from `apt dist-upgrade`

Edit because I missed part of the file:
I don't believe I use vmbr1 for anything, am I safe to just remove it?

Code:
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

# for Routing
auto vmbr1
iface vmbr1 inet manual
        bridge_ports dummy0
        bridge_stp off

        pre-down /sbin/ip -f inet6 route del default via *redacted*
        pre-down /sbin/ip -f inet6 route del *redacted* dev vmbr0

But also, I'm on OVH, so IPv6 support doesn't work properly, I never configured the IPv6 section.

Earlier I was told to try reinstalling lvm2, so tried that again. It processes correctly and repeats the same errors as above.

These are the contents of my /etc/lvm folder:
Code:
archive  backup  lvm.conf.dpkg-dist  lvmlocal.conf  profile
 
I compared the lvm.conf.dpkg-dist file to an lvm.conf I found in another file posted in the forums that was confirmed to be identical by a Proxmox staff member and mv'ed it to lvm.conf (made a backup copy first) and that allowed the apt dist-upgrade to properly configure the packages. All appears to be good now!
 
I get a similar error. But I am already at version 7.x. Preparing for v 8.

Should I delete the two things: pve-kernel-5.15.143-1-pve pve-kernel-5.15.85-1-pve ?

What can I do? I don't have a file called lvm.conf.dpkg-dist.

I tried to backup a VM, which quits with an error when I don't exclude the second disk (data-disk, it's openmediavault):

Code:

that is not good and possibly the source of your issues.. you might want to run some more in-deph tests and consider RMAing it if it's still covered..

which kind of test can you recommend to me please?

Is

smartctl --test=long /dev/sda

enough?

Maybe I got these errors because I always updated proxmox without shutting down the LXCs and VMs? Hm.
 
no, that is a clear indicator for hardware errors. yes, a smart long test might be a good idea. or simply reading the disk form end to end and checking if the counter goes up..
