Proxy Migration from 5.0 to 5.2

1. Verify System and Uyuni Tools version.

   cat /etc/os-release
   mgrpxy --version

   Confirm:

   • Operating System: SLE Micro 5.5

   • Tools version: mgrpxy version 0.1.29 or higher

2. Check running containers.

   podman ps

   Ensure the following containers are running:

   • proxy-squid

   • proxy-ssh

   • proxy-httpd

   • proxy-tftpd

   • proxy-salt-broker

3. Synchronize the new Proxy Products in Uyuni Server. For more information, see Software Products.

   Use the Web UI to synchronize:

   • SL Micro 6.2

   • Uyuni Proxy Extension 2026.04

4. Perform proxy product migration. For more information, see Product Migration.

   Navigate to the proxy system and select Systems  Overview > Software  Product Migration.

   Migrate from

   • SLE Micro 5.5 + SUSE Manager Proxy 5.0 Extension

     to

   • SL Micro 6.2 + Uyuni Proxy Extension 2026.04

     Do not select optional channels when prompted, unless you have confirmed they are required.

     It is recommended to do a dry-run first before performing the actual migration.

5. Monitor the migration action.

   You can follow the process under Systems  Details  Events tab in the Web UI.

6. After the upgrade completes, stop the proxy container and then reboot the system.

   reboot
   mgrpxy stop

7. Perform post-reboot checks.

   Verify upgraded OS and Uyuni extension:

   cat /etc/os-release
   SUSEConnect --status-text

8. Verify Uyuni tools version.

   mgrpxy --version

   Expected output:

   • mgrpxy version 5.2 or higher

9. Enable Root SSH Access (if required). SL Micro 6.2 disables root login via SSH by default. Edit /etc/ssh/sshd_config.d/sshd.conf:

   PermitRootLogin yes

   Restart the service:

   systemctl restart sshd

   For more information, see Remote root login on SL Micro.

10. Install the new proxy container images as RPM packages.

    transactional-update pkg install suse-multi-linux-manager-5.2-<arch>-proxy*

12. Upgrade proxy containers and restart them.

    mgrpxy upgrade podman
    mgrpxy stop

    • proxy-salt-broker

    • proxy-httpd

    • proxy-squid

    • proxy-tftpd

    • proxy-ssh
