Luca, I can see that you're trying to upgrade RHEL 7.7 which is not and will not be supported for upgrades: https://access.redhat.com/articles/4263361. Could you please test it with RHEL 7.6 EUS? If you try to make the upgrade from RHEL 7.7 working (I suppose it's because of the OSP requirements, with related BZ https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1766578), then I must thank you in the first place for the proactive approach but at the same time I need to say that we haven't even tried to make the upgrades work on 7.7 and that there is potentially many issues lying ahead. We've now been full steam on delivering RHEL 7.6 EUS to 8.1 and the next milestone is 7.6 EUS to 8.2. I'm not saying we won't try to fix the issues appearing during the upgrade of 7.7 to 8.x, like you reported, because we'll need to address them for the upgrades of 7.last to 8.x anywat. I just can't promise any timeframe for such fixes now. Btw, it even looks like issue of grubby, as what we are doing there, is what we should do. Grubby is supposed to update the configuration. It's even possible, the issue is connected to OSP on the system and there are some additional steps we need to do because of that. Who knows..

Unfortunately EUS is not really an option for OSP, I'll try and see if I can figure out what is going on with grubby as suggested by Petr, maybe I can save you a couple of cycles down the road. Luca, we have recently released new version of Leapp that allows upgrades from RHEL 7.8 to RHEL 8.2: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/8/html-single/upgrading_to_rhel_8/index We've fixed couple of issues with grub so please try to upgrade your scenario on RHEL 7.8 and let us know if there are still any grub-related issues. Thanks.

Thanks. Hey Michal, I just ran three or four upgrades in a row starting from 7.7 and 7.8 and didn't hit any grub issues :) Thanks a lot! Luca That's awesome. Thanks. |
