[SOLVED] Upgrading to 3.3 from 3.1: how is it done for free installations?

[cosmos]

Hello all,

I've been using pve since 2.x as a free platform and continued doing so. At the moment, I believe I have 3.1 installed:

proxmox-ve-2.6.32: 3.1-114 (running kernel: 2.6.32-26-pve)
pve-manager: 3.1-21 (running version: 3.1-21/93bf03d4)
pve-kernel-2.6.32-26-pve: 2.6.32-114
lvm2: 2.02.98-pve4
clvm: 2.02.98-pve4
corosync-pve: 1.4.5-1
openais-pve: 1.1.4-3
libqb0: 0.11.1-2
redhat-cluster-pve: 3.2.0-2
resource-agents-pve: 3.9.2-4
fence-agents-pve: 4.0.0-2
pve-cluster: 3.0-8
qemu-server: 3.1-8
pve-firmware: 1.0-23
libpve-common-perl: 3.0-8
libpve-access-control: 3.0-7
libpve-storage-perl: 3.0-17
pve-libspice-server1: 0.12.4-2
vncterm: 1.1-4
vzctl: 4.0-1pve4
vzprocps: 2.0.11-2
vzquota: 3.1-2
pve-qemu-kvm: 1.4-17
ksm-control-daemon: 1.1-1
glusterfs-client: 3.4.1-1

Two questions:
1) In the 2.x times, I used to do (IIRC) just some apt sources tinkering, an apt-get update and an apt-get dist-upgrade. Can I still do something like that, considering I do not have some sort of support license?

2) Are there any issues regarding OpenVZ containers and 3.3? I think I read somewhere that they are not supported...

I would appreciate any info available on the issues mentioned above

see http://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Downloads#Update_a_running_Proxmox_Virtual_Environment_3.x_to_latest_3.3

(and read the part about Proxmox VE repositories)

no issues with openvz, as long as you use the default kernel (2.6.32).

Hello Tom and thank you for your very fast response!

However, regarding my upgrade question I remained a bit buffled. My sources.list repository is as instructed in the wiki:

root@pve-1:~# cat /etc/apt/sources.list
deb http://ftp.gr.debian.org/debian wheezy main contrib

# security updates
deb http://security.debian.org/ wheezy/updates main contrib

Regarding /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pve-enterprise.list that file has the enterprise repository with a remark, since I do not have a subscription key:

# deb https://enterprise.proxmox.com/debian wheezy pve-enterprise

So, my original question remains: can this installation be upgraded to 3.3 for free and if so how?

Thank you for the clarification regarding OpenVZ btw, so I'll stick with 2.6.x kernels.
