Upgrade guide
On upgrade Cloudy Pad will ensure retrocompatibility as best as possible. However some features may remain disabled if you're upgrading from an older version to avoid breaking changes or data loss.
Only changes requiring manual intervention are listed here. If not, upgrade process is transparent.
0.24.0 - Scaleway volume deprecation and data disk
This version introduces several changes for Scaleway
Scaleway legacy volume deprecation
Scaleway is deprecating b_ssd volumes support and you won't be able to cloudypad provision existing Scaleway instances unless you upgrade your instance's volume following Scaleway migration guide.
Alternatively:
- Use
cloudypad configureinstead ofcloudypad provisionorcloudypad update- Note that it will not fully update your instance since provision will be skipped, but it should work nonetheless - Create a new instance (but you'll need to reinstall your games)
Dedicated data disk for Scaleway instances
Dedicated data disk is a feature splitting OS (system) disk and data disk to improve maintenability and help with cost reduction (to avoid paying for OS disk while instance is stopped in later releases).
Older instances won't enable dedicated data disk by default to keep retrocompatibility. To enable Scaleway dedicated Data disk:
- Migrate legacy root volume to new volume type following Scaleway migration guide
- Perform upgrade and update with
cloudypad configure- choose a 0 GB data disk size for now - SSH into your instance and move (not copy) folder
mv /var/lib/cloudypad/data /var/lib/cloudypad/data-backup - Run
cloudypad update scaleway --name my-instance --data-disk-size <size-gb>with your desired data disk size- This will create a new data disk and mount it in your instance at
/var/lib/cloudypad/data
- This will create a new data disk and mount it in your instance at
- SSH into your instance and move back data folder
mv /var/lib/cloudypad/data-backup /var/lib/cloudypad/data
You're all done ! Your instance is now using a dedicated data disk.
