panorama upgrade failed

L4 Transporter

Hello , 

 

We were running Panorama on Esxi . The version was 9.0.9

 

First we upgraded to 9.0.14 and it went smooth 

 

Then we went to 9.1.0 and it never came up ; we saw it went to maintenace mode with below error

A critical error has been detected preventing proper boot

up of the device. Please contact Palo Alto Networks to resolve this

issue.

 

 

Entry Reason: Failed to migrate system disk

 

How to resolve this ?

So I know this post was 2 years ago, but we saw the same issue today upgrading from 9.0 to 9.1 so I thought I'd post our solution in case anyone else has the same error.  From maintenance mode, we reverted the code version to get Panorama working.  Looking at the VM settings I saw 4 disks on the VM.  I ran "show system disk details" and saw that there was a 32GB and a 500GB disk that were admin disabled on the Panorama server.  The disks are legacy from when Panorama required less resources.  The fix was to power down the VM and delete the two un-used disks from the vServer and power it back on.  You should just have an 81Gb disk (running Panorama) and a 2TB disk (for Logging).  Once powered back on, the system will come up on the new code version.
