<![CDATA[Migrate server : from (old) 22.04 to (new) 24.04 ok?]]>Asking so that I don't fsck-up a critical step.

I am planning to upgrade my Hetzner VPS.
Shiny new cloudron version surely deserves shiny upgraded VPS, yes ? 😄

Just want to double-check my understanding that OS version is not critical when restoring from the old to the new, providing cloudron version is the same.

Old : ubuntu 22.04 now running cloudron 9.0.15
New : ubuntu 24.04 will be running cloudron 9.0.15
Backups on scaleway

Normally I would upgrade the old to 24.04 before migration, but seems do-release-upgrade might be problematic on the old VPS, as Cloudron is holding back 98 system updates, and I don't want to interfere with that.

If so, yes. As @jdaviescoates said, the Cloudron version needs to match. The OS version can be different. As a precautionary measure take a VPS snapshot of your old 22.04 install before migrating.

I think that's correct. The docs emphasise making sure the Cloudron versions are the same, but don't seem to mention OS version.
