Automatic OMV updates

    • Offizieller Beitrag

    I'm looking for a way to set up automatic updates on one of my servers.

    I have thought to create a daily scheduled task with omv-upgrade and another weekly task with reboot (in case there is a kernel update).

    Any reason not to do this or a better way to do it?

    install unattended-upgrades. This will do things the proper way and only reboot when needed.

    omv 7.0.5-1 sandworm | 64 bit | 6.8 proxmox kernel

    plugins :: omvextrasorg 7.0 | kvm 7.0.13 | compose 7.1.6 | k8s 7.1.0-3 | cputemp 7.0.1 | mergerfs 7.0.4


    omv-extras.org plugins source code and issue tracker - github - changelogs

    Reading the debian documentation I couldn't tell if the OMV packages will be updated. Will they?

    If you add the omv and omv-extras repos to the repos in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades in the Unattended-Upgrade::Allowed-Origins section, it will.

    What should the syntax be there? I tried the following (see line 12):

    But I only got a notification e-mail; the upgrades weren't applied automatically:



    So I assume the syntax in line 12 is wrong?

    This thread is old. You can read in this other thread how to do it.

    I don't have unattend-upgrades configured but it would probably look something like:

    I suppose it's not 100 % this, since I got this email:

    Too bad I can't deduct which line caused the error. I'll comment them all out, but one, and see where that takes us. :)

    Would unattended-upgrades still serve a purpose then? For Debian updates?

    The linked post actually does better upgrades in my opinion. unattended-upgrades would still be good for automatically rebooting.
