Assistance required to upgrade distribution V3.0.100 to latest V5.x.x

Sn00zE · 7. Juni 2021

Hi Guys,

I need some guidance on upgrading my current server distribution to the latest.

Am I safe to follow the upgrade guide https://openmediavault.readthe…o/en/5.x/various/apt.html or should I look at Upgrade Scripts for non-interactive major release upgrades (2->3, 3->4, 4->5) and do the upgrade one release at a time?

My biggest question, which is a nightmare to confirm, is the addons. Below is some information about the addons i still have active and installed. most other addons was removed I don't need anymore or was replaced by docker containers.

Also, there allot of errors during "apt-get update", anything to be concerned about?

Currently on V3.0.100 (Erasmus)

dpkg -l | grep openm

Definitely this option.

My biggest question, which is a nightmare to confirm, is the addons. Below is some information about the addons i still have active and installed. most other addons was removed I don't need anymore or was replaced by docker containers.

Why is it nightmare? The docker plugin is gone but you can use portainer that has an install button in omv-extras. fail2ban is still around. The virtualbox plugin is no longer because virtualbox isn't in the debian 10 repos and phpvirtualbox isn't really maintained anymore. But I wrote a kvm plugin and it even has a feature to convert virtualbox disks to kvm.

Your system is a mess. I would consider a fresh install. As long as your docker containers and VM disks are on data disks, it should be easy to recreate everything.

Damn, also think so yes, cant do any installs or even uninstalls of packages.

Just to check, I have my docker containers on a data disk. Can the previous docker data be imported, ie. all the previous settings and docker profiles?

Guess I have to redo all my samba folder permissions for all shares? Had ACL settings on media directories.

Depends on where they are stored. It is probably easier to recreate the containers and keep using your old volumes to not lose config/data from the particular container.

Technically ACLs are stored on the filesystem but they are also partially stored in the omv database. Recreating them would probably be better but might not be required. I hate ACLs and don't use them. So, I couldn't really tell you.

Thank you for the input. Will see what I can do.
