Did you run the update6to7 script?

not sure if I did....I updated OMV6 to 7 with the step by step guide that I found in the forum:

Contributions wanted:

1. Backup the OS drive (this is allways a good idea, not only for upgrades)
2. Make sure, you have enough free space on your os drive
3. Check any installed plugins if they have been ported to OMV6
   
   If you are using plugins which have not been / will not be ported, get rid of the plugins except unionfs / mergefolderfs. These two will automatically be be converted to the newer mergerfs plugin
   
   (Many plugins can be replaced by docker containers. Do this before upgrading)
4. If you installed software from foreign repos make sure they have a release for bullseye or remove the repos / software
5. Go to the cli (Putty, ssh, keyboard) and run these commands (In case of errors stop and ask on the forum before makingthings worse)
   1. Make sure your current install is correct all configs can be deployed by running sudo omv-salt stage run deploy
   2. Get the current install up to date: sudo omv-upgrade
   3. Do the release upgrade by running sudo omv-release-upgrade
      
      If you see an error message from patch which says a patch has alredy been applied, ignore it. (this is the only error to be ignored)
6. Wait for the last script to finish and reboot.
7. Refresh/clear browser cache (Crtl-Shift R on most browsers)
8. Check if all services and docker containers are running as you expect.
9. If you see Linux image Updates you can not install on the UI, go to the cli and run omv-upgrade once more.

Hi Soma,

I have cleard browser cache and also used incognito tab, but still does not show any updates on the update page.

I have upldated from OMV6 approx 4 weeks ago.

I am reciving frequently emails that there are some updates required with some packeages. BUt when I look into OMV through web interface it does not show me any update that I need to install. (see screenshots) What am I doing wrong. Appreciate any support.

Thanks

I have now changed it back in the router to the previous IP adress and everything seems to work ok. I will keep an eye on it.

Thanks for your support.

Have a nice weekend.

Deniz

yes, that is how I did it: alyas asign ame IP. As mentioned I have not changed this setting, taht is strange?

Hi,

thanks for your support. the IP adress has changed from 192.168.178.58 to 192.168.178.172.

It works now, but my question would be how the IP adress can change, as it was a fixed one and I hab´ve not done this?

Thanks

Looking forward for any advise.

Hi,

I wanted to share the progress made....

I found a freeware tool which works fine under Windows and clones Hard Drives. I used "Hasleo Disc Clone".

I cloned the USBFlash disc and the cloned one works fine..

Just in case someone is looking for an alternative tool.

Best

Deniz

Hi guys,

any idea ir guidance that can helpnwould be much appreciated.

Thanks

Deniz

it is just blank, nothing wil show up.

IO tried this now on 3 different devices (2 Laptops and 1 Gaming Comupter) and it is the same issue on all of them.

Also what is the same on all three machines, that he FlkashUSB is shown in the Gerätemanager (see screenshot) but it is not shown neither in WIn32DiskImager nor as a Drive under windows explorer.

ANy idea wht the issue might be?

Thanks

Deniz

Hi Soma,

its been a while but ultimately today I found the time to start the update process. I just failed at the very beginning at the process when I was trying to make a backup with Win32DiskImager.

The issue is that I am not able to find the USB flashdisk in Windows and ultimately it is not been able to select in Win32DiskImagaer as a Device.

I was able to find the USB Flash disk under "Computerverwaltung"->"Datenträgerverwaltung".

BUt no idea what I need to change in order to be able to select the USB Flashdisk as a device in WIN32DiskImager.

Thanks for any advice.

This is how I do it:

Power down.

Optional but HIGHLY RECOMMENDED: Flash the clone to a brand new HIGH QUALITY USB stick of the same size.

I do have now ordered a USB Flash disc (the same one I am currently using in the NAS). Two questions:

1. Also here any guide that describes how to clone the existing USB Falsh with the currently used OS?

2. I am using 32GB, will 32 GB still be enough if u are going to run OMV 6

Thansk for all your help

Quote from raulfg3

only a tip. because you planned to do a new fresh install of OMV6, do it on a new boot device, so actual keep safe ( no need to clone it, because you do not use to store new O,S. on it).

so u basically saying I should use a new USB flash drive and do a brand new installation OMV6 isntalation on the new USB stick?

Is this the recommended way of doing it, or should I run an update on the existing USB Flash devise from 5->6?

I am a bit lost., as I have actually no clue what the best way of doing it is?

Thansk for your support
