Latest update script failure
-
@boessi One thing I have been doing is renaming each boot environment back to "default" after each successful upgrade and some initial testing.
-
@boessi I'm getting the same results as you are. I'm running on a VM. I'd be interested in knowing how you have it set up
-
@townsenk64 In that case, why not just backup your config file and redeploy to a new VM, upgrade that, then restore your config? It's a safe path forward for testing alphas and betas.

How do I change the boot environment name? Can i just call it default and do the upgrade?

I always rename mine back to default post-upgrade:

Yeah i got it, but my ZFS storage is almost maxed out now. I'm at 1.1g of 1.2g.
And interestingly, it still says im on an older version, even after downloading the 20240301 image.

@behemyth Just delete the boot environment that's no longer needed. That should free up your space that will allow to upgrade moving forward. Today's build actually clears the package cache.

New renaming logic has been added that is more elegant.
Now we rename the current BE as "name_timestamp" and then name the new boot environment "name".
If you defer the reboot and decide to delete the upgraded BE we will rename the current back from "name_timestamp" to "name".
If the upgrade fails we do delete the failed BE and rename the current back to "name" automatically
It's pretty elegant

I noticed this morning and like it. :)

@DefenderLLC I did redeploy a new VM. No luck with that either. Generic 2.7.2 install & upgrade to 23.09.1 without issue.
but it continues to fail to boot after upgrading to the 24.x dev build. -
I will test upgrades from 23.09.

@grandrivers same, rolled back to prev env for now

@cmcdonald with latest version (24.03.a.20240302.0116) I got following error while booting into the new environment. Sorry for the screenshot, will log proper output into logfile next time.

Roll back and delete the upgraded boot environment.
Enter the command:
touch /verbose_rcYou can use Diagnostics > Command Prompt page for this.
Now perform the upgrade again.
This file will enable more verbose ouput and should tell us exactly what command is failing
-
@cmcdonald sent you the full log as PM.
