Yay, it only took 2 hours and the help of an llm since the upgrade corrupted my lvm metadata! Little bit of post cleanup and verifying everything works. Now I can go to sleep (it’s 5am).
Wasn’t that bad, but not exactly relaxing. And when my VMs threw a useless error (‘can’t start need manual fix’) I might have slightly panicked…
Started a system upgrade at 3am…you ok?
I’m always up late (it’s 5:19a), though a good bit more than usual lately. But I did the upgrade because I was anxious, had nothing to do, and there were no users utilizing the machine.
Not something that sounds production ready lol
Thanks for posting this and reminding me to never go back to Proxmox. My Proxmox server killed itself and all VM’s twice before I moved onto HyperV.
