But it worked for a decade for us - if there is a way to get the OS upgraded, I don't think its impossible that cPanel can't get made to work afterwards either. I can't say if this process still works because the obvious point is cPanel can't develop software for an unsupported operation. Normally it wasn't that bad, you'd usually have to uninstall rpms that didn't like the switch (even some cPanel ones), do the distro upgrade, run then cpup -force (hopefully needing to update to a newer version as well), and everything would be working again after any touchups you had to do afterwards. Virtuozzo stopped providing this feature for 6 to 7 so when cPanel EOLed CentOS 5/6 (32 bit) are when I stopped doing these upgrades and my memory is a bit fuzzy on it now. I had servers that went for over 10 years without needing to be reinstalled. I did distro upgrades from CentOS 3 to 6 for our cPanel servers back in the day - mostly Virtuozzo VPS containers because they had way to upgrade the distro even though CentOS/Redhat didn't have an official method. ![]()
