Fuck, I just left for a month away and I hate to do major upgrades when remote.

[–] ikidd@lemmy.world 35 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Probably for the best. Upgrades on the first release haven't had a stellar record

[–] Moonrise2473@feddit.it 4 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Exactly, for example I missed the note that updating truenas to the latest version disables and hides all the virtual machines (theoretically they can get migrated to the new engine but it gave me some weird error. Luckily truenas can be downgraded easily.)

Now, 3 months after the First release of the update, those virtual machines aren't disabled and hidden anymore

[–] SidewaysHighways@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

core or scale? are they getting rid of core??

[–] Moonrise2473@feddit.it 5 points 10 months ago (1 children)

scale, they got rid of the kvm emulator in the last release and i was devastated to see all my VM gone. The "migration" consists in you migrate the disk image to the new directory, then you make a new VM... IF you knew that BEFORE the update and took note of all the settings because the old VM menu is gone!

but also it's clear than core is on life support

[–] SidewaysHighways@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

poop.

well my truenas is a vm on proxmox, i assume I'll figure something out when it is time lol

[–] Zanathos@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

As of the last update released on August 1st, the "old" VMs are now visible again. The latest Electric Eel chain also merged all Core features into Scale, so the jump should not be as drastic any longer. I've always lived on Scale, but I assume you could try backing up your config and spinning up a new Scale VM and restoring the backup to it. No matter how you dice it though, it will be spicy!

Stick with 8 then, until we know it's stable.
