Complete rewrite of the upgrade playbook based on lessons learned
from the kikker upgrade. The v2 playbook is fully idempotent and
handles all edge cases properly.
Key improvements over v1:
1. **Idempotency** - Can be safely re-run after failures
2. **Smart version detection** - Reads actual running version, not just docker-compose.yml
3. **Stage skipping** - Automatically skips completed upgrade stages
4. **Better maintenance mode handling** - Properly enables/disables at right times
5. **Backup reuse** - Skips backup if already exists from previous run
6. **Dynamic upgrade path** - Only runs needed stages based on current version
7. **Clear status messages** - Shows what's happening at each step
8. **Proper error handling** - Fails gracefully with helpful messages
Files:
- playbooks/260123-upgrade-nextcloud-v2.yml (main playbook)
- playbooks/260123-upgrade-nextcloud-stage-v2.yml (stage tasks)
Testing:
- v1 playbook partially tested on kikker (manual intervention required)
- v2 playbook ready for full end-to-end testing
Usage:
cd ansible/
HCLOUD_TOKEN="..." ansible-playbook -i hcloud.yml \
playbooks/260123-upgrade-nextcloud-v2.yml --limit <server> \
--private-key "../keys/ssh/<server>"
The playbook will:
- Detect current version (v30/v31/v32)
- Skip stages already completed
- Create backup only if needed
- Upgrade through required stages
- Re-enable critical apps
- Update to 'latest' tag
