Failed upgrade to 8.3 now stuck on grub
-
System: Dell R620
XCP NG:8.2Got in through idrac and attempted to upgrade to 8.3. After a few minutes i received the following error
I went ahead and rebooted the system as that was the only option but not i get to the grub menu.
Cany anyone provide any pointers as to how i can rescue this server?
-
You could have use right key+Alt to get to another console to see the error logs. Anyway, I would restore the previous version by inserting the ISO again and rollback to 8.2
-
@olivierlambert I can use the 8.3 ISO to reload 8.2 ?
-
Yes, that's the whole point, during the first menus, you should be asked about Upgrade or restore previous version.
-
@olivierlambert
Now that im back on 8.2 where i can look in the filesystem to review the logs? -
Nevermind. Second time the upgrade went smoothly.
HolySmokes.......XO Lites is niiiiiice.
Great job all around
-
2 times the charm
I have no idea why it failed initially, but at least you tested the magic rollback
As you can see, it's really a GREAT feature
