Hello together,
I have used omv since some 1.x version and upgraded the installation to 2.x. about a year ago.
I use my NAS for a software raid1 with a samba share and nextcloud, so it looks like all my plug-ins (samba, nginx, mysql, remote share, fail2ban, wol) are available on omv 3.x.
I have two problems:
1) I can't update nextcloud to version 11, since the php version on omv 2.x is too old...
2) I sometimes (twice) get problem with my hardware which stops the NAS from booting, however I could fix it again by "checking the cables" the two times and it has been running for 2 month now...
I have bought a replacement server (in case hardware stops working) and I want to upgrade omv from 2.x to 3.x in the next month to upgrade my nextcloud - but I have never upgraded a Linux system with this big changes and I read many comments/Threads here and I am unsure on how to proceed and make sure everything works. Can somebody please tell me how exactly to proceed?
I was thinking about just install omv3 on the new server, but I worry mostly about the software raid and the user-file correlation on my drive - I think nextcloud would be pretty easy to set up again...
I read there is no chance to export/import omv, but is there a way to keep the user and the software raid with the corresponding user- file correlation (who owns which files)?
Any other proposals?
Help is greatly appreciated!
Thank you,
Linkin
