FAQ Q: Can I upgrade Proxmox VE 6.4 to 7.0 with apt? A: Please follow the upgrade instructions on https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Upgrade_from_6.x_to_7.0 Q: Can I upgrade a 7.0 beta installation to the stable 7.0 release via apt? A: Yes. Q: Can I install Proxmox VE 7.0 on top of Debian 11 "Bullseye"? A: Yes, see https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Install_Proxmox_VE_on_Debian_11_Bullseye Q: Why is Proxmox VE 7.0 released ahead of the stable Debian 11 release? A: The Debian project team postponed their plans for the May release mainly due to an unresolved issue in the Debian installer. Since we maintain our own Proxmox installer, we are not affected by this particular issue, therefore we have decided to release earlier. The core packages of Proxmox VE are either maintained by the Proxmox team or are already subject to the very strict Debian freeze policy for essential packages. Q: Can I upgrade my Proxmox VE 6.4 cluster with Ceph Octopus to 7.0 with Ceph Octopus or even Pacific? A: This is a two step process. First, you have to upgrade Proxmox VE from 6.4 to 7.0, and afterwards upgrade Ceph from Octopus to Pacific. There are a lot of improvements and changes, so please follow exactly the upgrade documentation: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Upgrade_from_6.x_to_7.0 https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Ceph_Octopus_to_Pacific Q: Where can I get more information about feature updates? A: Check the roadmap, forum, the mailing list, and/or subscribe to our newsletter. -- Best Regards, Martin Maurer martin@proxmox.com https://www.proxmox.com
