+As you may know, proxmox is my current choice for a hypervisor. Proxmox 7 is here and comes with a host of new features!  In this video we're cover all of the new features in Proxmox 7 as well as how to upgrade your Proxmox server safely. We'll also cover all of the "scary" prompts you get while upgrading as well as some of the ways to make sure your upgrade is successful. So, if you're thinking about upgrading your HomeLab to Proxmox 7, be sure to check this video out first.

+
+## Commands
+
+
+Check your upgrade status
+
+```bash
+pve6to7 –full
+```
+
+First, make sure we have the latest packages
+
+```bash
+apt update
+apt dist-upgrade
+
+```
+
+Update all Debian repositories to Bullseye
+
+```bash
+sed -i 's/buster\/updates/bullseye-security/g;s/buster/bullseye/g' /etc/apt/sources.list
+```
+
+We’ll also need to make sure we comment out any Proxmox ve 6.0 repositories.
+
+```bash
+nano /apt/sources/list
+nano /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pve-enterprise.list
+
+```
+
+Add Proxmox VE & package Repo
+
+```
+echo "deb https://enterprise.proxmox.com/debian/pve bullseye pve-enterprise" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pve-enterprise.list
+```
+
+If you’re using the non-subscription repository (like me) also run
+
+```bash
+sed -i -e 's/buster/bullseye/g' /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pve-install-repo.list 
+```
+
+If you’re running Ceph, you’ll need to run 
+
+```
+echo "deb http://download.proxmox.com/debian/ceph-octopus bullseye main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ceph.list
+```
+
+Do the upgrade
+
+```
+apt update
+apt dist-upgrade
+```
