It’s been 24 hours now and the first linux inplace upgrade from fedora 27 to fedora 28 is still working well.
\nSo well that I started more upgrades. The first server (with SSD Drive) completed in less than 15 minutes. It came up well, no issues and continues to run well.
\nThe 2nd server (with spinning SATA Drive) took 37 minutes. It too had no issues and continues to run well.<\/p>\n

The 3rd server this morning had problems. Boy did it have problems.
\nThe same process ran fine for the most part.
\nsudo dnf upgrade –refresh
\nsudo dnf install dnf-plugin-system-upgrade
\nsudo dnf system-upgrade download –releasever=28<\/p>\n

sudo dnf system-upgrade reboot<\/p>\n

after reboot.. it was running a fedora27 kernel.
\nLinux version 4.16.5-200.fc27.i686+PAE
\nnuts!
\nTry again
\nsudo dnf system-upgrade download –releasever=28
\nBefore you continue ensure that your system is fully upgraded by running “dnf –refresh upgrade”. Do you want to continue [y\/N]: y
\nError: Need a –releasever greater than the current system version.<\/p>\n

hmm. lets ask the system what it thinks it is

wow. an hour later I think it is fixed… wayyyy too much digging down into the bowels of linuxfedora
\nrebooted a couple of times, kept having to reset the firewall
\nfirewall-cmd –list-all
\n services: http ssh
\nfirewall-cmd –add-service=https –permanent
\nfirewall-cmd –list-all
\n services: http ssh https
\nThat too is fixed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
