Updating Ubuntu
About
The current recommend host o/s for LxRoot (control panel and secondary servers) is Ubuntu 22.04 LTS.
Backup Recommendation
Check the integrity of your backups before. If you are updating your LxRoot control panel server, we recommend making a block level backup of the storage before proceeding.
Update Ubuntu
Downtime Warning
Note that your websites and services will be offline during at least some of the update process since the dist-upgrade will include an update to docker. LxRoot should recover automatically from the docker update.
To update Ubuntu to 22.04 LTS:
- Log in to your server with SSH as root and run the following commands:
apt update
apt upgrade
apt dist-upgrade
do-release-upgrade
Follow the prompts. If asked to replace files in /etc/ufw with those from the package, we recommend that you say no.
- At the end of the process, reboot the system.
