Can you not upgrade Rancher to 2.9 or something?
q
I tried upgrading to 2.9 on a test machine, but highest version of k3s supported on 2.9 is 1.30, so helm upgrade fails.
b
And jumping straight to 2.X (supported) is broke too?
I think the problem you're going to have is that 2.6 was already EOL like 2 years ago iirc. So getting the correct images might be a challenge.
I've been able to downgrade Rancher before, but I've never tried with K3s.
#CGGQEHPPW Might be the best place for that particular question.

Thanks

Would it be better/faster to build a new Rancher instance and back/restore from the EOL one?
q
I can build a new rancher instance. But if I restore database from v2.6.3, I am not sure it will work. Would it work if I build a new rancher instance and import the downstream cluster directly ?
