[BlueOnyx:23346] Re: Aventurin{e} - upgrade 6108R to 6109R

Hi Colin,

> How easy is it to upgrade Aventurin{e} nodes from 6108R to 6109R?

It's a bit of an effort. The complication is that you can't do an in
place upgrade and that "vzmigrate" between OpenVZ 6 and OpenVZ 7 doesn't
work.

The usual procedure is: Set up a fresh 6109R and then use ovztransfer.sh
to move the VPS's from 6108R to 6109R. That handles both the transfer
and conversion of the VPS's to the new format. It's just one command per
VPS and involves a bit of downtime during the transition.

It's explained here:

Good choice! Speak to Chris and see if he can set up a temporary node
for you to handle the migration or what other options you two might be
able to work out.
