How to upgrade

Due to the changed repository structure, you should update the cloudlinux-release package first by running the following command:

dnf install cloudlinux-release

You can also install it from the bypass repository if you really don’t want to wait until the gradual rollout phase is completed. You can do that by running the following command:

dnf install cloudlinux-release --enablerepo=cloudlinux-rollout-2-bypass

After the cloudlinux-release package upgrade is finished, do the full system upgrade using the following command:

dnf upgrade

Converting CentOS 8.4 to CloudLinux 8.4

You will be able to convert CentOS 8.4 to CloudLinux 8.4 using our cldeploy script when the CloudLinux OS 8.4 gradual rollout will be completed. We're planning to complete it by June 30. For now, you can convert CentOS 8.3 to CloudLinux 8.3 and then upgrade to CloudLinux 8.4 or wait when the CloudLinux OS 8.4 gradual rollout will be completed.
