This requires a reboot.
I think this would've been done yesterday by Reception123, so just needs a reboot on servers that weren't rebooted. Some major ones had to be because of outage. db* was rebooted, mon111 was rebooted, phab121 was rebooted, a single mw server was (by me) and test101 was. So I think all those are already done.
But I would like to note, for the record upgrades should never be done like the way they were this time, and should be done with unattended-upgrades, and never with apt upgrade on all servers at once, at least not without scheduling downtime. But because of it those servers would've already had the kernel upgraded. I can do the rest of the MediaWiki servers today though (mw*, mwtask111, and jobchron121)
It feels like hosts should have been done based on cloud server rather than individually as we need to reboot the physical hosts as well.
Cloud servers can't be done without downtime can they?
The best bet in my opinion is the reboot them during the MW upgrade as users already expect broken.
Nope, we don’t have a fully redundant setup so there will be downtime.

@Paladox is this something you can facilitate?

Sure. Although note that proxmox uses a different kernel (a customised one).
We could also use that window to upgrade proxmox? (https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Roadmap#Proxmox_VE_7.2)
Each vm would need to be stopped so that we make sure there is no corruption. Also they would manually have to be started after rebooting the cloud server.
It does also now cross my mind that ProxMox is installed on the HDDs of the server, maybe not too relevant here but we might want to look at some work to move it over to the SSDs
If you want to, could you do that during the window? I'm unsure how to do that so would like your help with that please :)
