Hi!

It is possible to upgrade 4-node cluster from version 8 to 9 - one node by one (each node in next day)? Nodes with version 9 works properly with rest of node version 8?
 
Hi,
yes, you should upgrade one node after the other. Some things, like migrating a guest back to a PVE 8 node are not guaranteed to work and there might be some warnings about new settings the old nodes don't know about. While there shouldn't be actual issues, I'd not wait a full day after each node if there is no good reason for it.

You can also already check out the newer kernel in Proxmox VE 8 for evaluation: https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/o...ve-8-available-on-test-no-subscription.164497
