PVE upgrade 3.4 to 4.x questions

[cschreier]

Hi all,

I'm starting to plan the migration from PVE 3.4 to 4.x.

My setup is fairly simple: running a main server (arch linux) on proxmox 3.4 using QEMU with some storage disks (1TB, 2 x 3TB, 60 GB SSD for boot). This is just a home server.

I'm not using OpenVZ containers:

root@proxmox:/etc/pve/openvz# vzlist
Container(s) not found

Just some qemu VMs:

root@proxmox:/etc/pve/openvz# qm list
      VMID NAME                 STATUS     MEM(MB)    BOOTDISK(GB) PID       
       100 Hauptserver          running    4096              20.00 2803      
       101 Windows8             stopped    2048             100.00 0         
       102 Windows7             stopped    1024              60.00 0

and some storage:

root@proxmox:~# pvesm status
backup    dir 1       257899908        73136900       184763008 28.86%
local     dir 1        64679756        37015292        27664464 57.73%
sdb-1T    lvm 1       976756736               0       546840576 0.50%
sdc-3T    lvm 1      2930262016               0          540672 0.50%
sdd-3T    lvm 1      2930262016               0          540672 0.50%

So can I just upgrade in-place using the guide in the wiki https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Upgrade_from_3.x_to_4.0 skipping the OpenVZ parts and skipping the conversions ?
Will my VMs and LVM storage be available right after the upgrade ?

Sorry for the maybe stupid questions, I'm not a proxmox expert.

Many thanks in advance !

Cheers,
Chris

Yes everything should go fine. Have done a lot of upgrades. Until now no problems.

Hi all,

just upgraded my small system as decribed above. Worked like a charm !

During the Jessie upgrade I answered all "replace questions" with Y. After the upgrade I had to edit the /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pve-enterprise.list to reflect the no-subscription environment and to prevent the error messages on apt-get update.

cheers
Chris
