Hello !
I plan to upgrade my small PVE cluster to version 9.
My current cluster configuration is:
- 2 nodes, cluster (with qdevice), PVE 8.4
- Each node has 2 disks
- First disk for system (PVE 8.4 installed from ISO)
- Second disk dedicated to ZFS : VMs and containers disks
- Replication of VMs and containers disks are enabled between 2 nodes (on ZFS partition on second disk)
I'd like to replace the system disk on first node and then install PVE9 from scratch on this node. The second node can be upgraded in-place.
I wonder if I can preserve second disk setup (partitions and content) and how to do it ?
Or maybe my question doesn't make sense as PVE9 will restore the partitions and disks of guests on second disk after upgrade on cluster rebuild.
Thank you for your help.
BTW: I suppose the correct way to upgrade in my case is to remove one node from the cluster, install new disk, install PVE9, add the node to the cluster again. Am I right ?
