Proxmox 2.2 has some updates which have been pushed to the stable repository. There is no new functionality added with these updates, they are just bug fixes.

Reading the forum, there looks to be an issue with this update if you have turned off being able to login to SSH with passwords and enabled keys on your Proxmox host. It looks like the keys are removed and you will need to login to the local shell to re-create the keys. Updating a standard cluster works fine.

Before updating, make sure all your VM’s have been stopped. Run the below commands on each server in your cluster.

apt-get update
apt-get dist-upgrade

Restart all Proxmox servers to complete the installation.
