Trouble upgrading 9.3 to 9.5

Rocky Linux Help & Support
1

Hello,

Today, I migrated a server from 9.3 to 9.5 using dnf update. The update process run fine. Once it finished I just reboot and the server is stuck in loading “home”. The process times out and enters administration mode.

There is no exit to that loop and I need to select 9.3 in grub in order to start the server. It looks like something might be messed around volume manager but I don’t know how to fix it so this is why I created this topic. If you need more information please ask. I’ll obtain that information and come back here.

Please note I’ve no physical access to the server and have to take a car and travel some Km in order to restart.

Thanks in advance!

You could look at logs from a previous bad boot, e.g.

journalctl -b -2

this means show logs from “two boots ago”. You need to find the one where you tried to boot 9.5, also try

cat /etc/fstab

Hi Gerry,

Thanks for jumping in!

Unfortunately journalctl -b -2 says

[root@rsapi ~]# journalctl -b -2
Specifying boot ID or boot offset has no effect, no persistent journal was found.
[root@rsapi ~]#

So I’m enabling persistent storage for the systemd journal log and will reboot the system in a couple of days. Hope the key information will be collected at that time.

I’ve also stored a copy of /var/log/messages where I’ve found how dracut was executed to generate the /boot/initramfs-5.14.0-503.16.1.el9_5.x86_64.img file and other related files. Hope that information can help later as well.

Cheers
Ignacio

Ah yes, I forgot to say you need journal persistence.

Sorry for the delay. I’ve just enabled persistent journal. Here is the information requested:

I don’t know how to obtain the surrounding command from systemd.

I’ll try to investigate further

This part of the boot is interesting.

lvm[988]: /dev/nvme0n1p3 excluded: device is not in devices file.

At the bottom of the screen capture there is the content of the /etc/lvm/devices/system.devices file

Hope this information is useful to solve the problem

Here is the comparison of the boot process between version 9.3 (that still works) and version 9.5 that doesn’t.

For some reason, it looks like when booting from 9.5 lvm is ignoring the partition where /home is stored, but 9.3 works ok.

Hope someone can give me more light. In the meantime I’ll spend more time investigating and reporting back here.
