Hello , Martin.
Im still in pve 6.04.
I was looking at the document you pointed out (Upgrade from 6.x to 7.0)
It is frustrating to see that upgrading  is a very difficult process.
My cluster contains 2 servers.
Both are in production , at 50 - 60 % storage and memory capacity so it is
not easy for me to create backups and move VMs.

I will study how to proceed with this update from pve 6  to 7.
Perhaps:
Adding a third new box already running version 7.
Adding a networking storage ? need to check out wich one.

Meanwhile , until I can go to pve 7 , I think I should upgrate to latest
pve 6 and disable automatic upgrades ...
Do you think it is ok ?

Hello Leandro,

If you are under Proxmox 6.4, you cannot move "accidentaly", by software upgrades, to 7.0. Because 6.x is based on Debian 10, and 7.x on Debian 11, so you have to change the repository to point to the newer release.

What I do personnaly is to test the upgrade on a test cluster, to see how it works. I have an old server on which I setup a nested proxmox ve cluster with three small VMs. I test the upgrade process on this nested cluster, before applying it to production cluster.

For your produxtion cluster, you should have backups of your VMs (for example on an NFS storage). It would be indeed a good thing to have à third host to have a minimum cluster with quorum.

Good luck !

Alain
