Never had a problem with them. Just put each node in maintenance, migrate the VMs to another node, update, move the VMs back. Repeat until all nodes are updated

  if you are using hardware pass through for e.g. nvidia cards you have to update your VMs as well, but other than that pretty painless in my experience (over 15 years)

  The "update" step is a bit of a "draw the rest of the owl" in the case of major version updates like this 8.x -> 9.x release. It also depends how many features you're using in that cluster as to how complicated the owl is to draw. That said, I just made it out alright in my home lab without too much hullabaloo.

    Did you do the backup and full reinstall or just with apt? I should do the same update this weekend. .

      Just with editing the apt sources and running apt commands. There is a nice pre-conversion checker which will alert you to anything special you have to (or may want to) do prior to beginning that process.
