CentOS

Upgrade from CentOS 8 to CentOS 8 Stream

On a freshly provisioned CentOS 8 system, run the following commands:

printf "fastestmirror=True\ndeltarpm=True\n" | tee -a /etc/dnf/dnf.conf

dnf update -y

Reboot the system, then check the current CentOS 8 version:

cat /etc/redhat-release
CentOS Linux release 8.3.2011

Enable CentOS Stream repository:

dnf install -y centos-release-stream

Replace all existing CentOS Linux repositories with CentOS Stream:

dnf swap centos-{linux,stream}-repos

Migrate CentOS 8 to CentOS Stream 8:

dnf distro-sync

Reboot, and check the CentOS version:

cat /etc/redhat-release
CentOS Stream release 8
