Did a rolling upgrade on a 5 node ceph cluster, 6.3 => latest, rebooted 
all nodes. No issues at all.


I did notice that on the dist-upgrade, the grub update generated a 
number of errors:

The following packages will be REMOVED:
   pve-kernel-5.4.78-2-pve
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 1 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
After this operation, 288 MB disk space will be freed.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n]
