Question
How do I upgrade from CloudLinux 7 to CloudLinux 8?
Answer
CloudLinux 7 servers can be upgraded to CloudLinux 8 with the cPanel-provided elevate-cpanel script, version 33 or greater.
Please note that the elevate-cpanel script provided by CloudLinux is different than the elevate-cpanel script provided by cPanel. The CloudLinux-provided script has been deprecated and should not be used. Please only use the cPanel-provided version of the script.
To upgrade, ensure you have a complete system backup, then follow our regular ELevate guide:
