Well, I was wrong. My Backup USB stick upgraded perfectly, without incident. Interestingly, when I swapped back the original USB stick, with I had re-imaged with the Unraid USB creator, I ended up with no GUI, but a Tower login was present at the server. I have created a diagnostics log. After a shutdown -r command completed, everything seems fine again. From when I swapped in the original USB stick (line 1), the server has not been moved, powered down except by the shutdown command, nor was the USB stick removed/replaced. tower-diagnostics-20190224-1436.zip

Since I've already blown away that USB stick, I'll try to upgrade the back-up stick to see if the issue re-occurs. I have copied the config conterts to it, so the outcome should be similar I expect.

After what appeared to be a successful installation, I rebooted when prompted. Instead of the Unraid gui opening, I received an error that the site was unreachable. I logged into the IPMI interface on the server, and it showed Unraid was at the Tower Login, but no gui. I don't have a diagnostics log to share. I am willing to attempt the same process with my backup USB stick to see what happens, but if it fails, I would need help to get a log file out of it. The good news, is I was able to rectify the situation by reflashing my USB drive with 6.6.7 and recopying the config back onto it. Specs: - original version of Unraid on the server was 6.6.6 - data disks are encrypted - Unraid Pro license - 1 Parity disk - 4 data disks - 2 cache disks (not encrypted) I upgraded my backup USB stick successfully, then re-inserted my primary USB stick with I flashed (above). Upon boot, I had a Tower login, but no Unraid GUI. A similar result to my upgrading experience. It's possible the upgrade was successful, but the failure of the GUI to start is the same between both situations. tower-diagnostics-20190224-1436.zip

I'm sorry to rain on the parade, but I had an issue. After what appeared to be a successful installation, I rebooted when prompted. Instead of the Unraid gui opening, I received an error that the site was unreachable. I logged into the IPMI interface on the server, and it showed Unraid was at the Tower Login, but no gui. I'll open a bug report, but I don't have a diagnostics log to share, and I have no idea if this is reproduce-able. I could attempt the same process with my backup USB stick to see what happens, but if it fails, I would need help to get a log file out of it. Sadly, my Linux skills are rather laughable. The good news, is I was able to rectify the situation by reflashing my USB drive with 6.6.7 and recopying the config back onto it. Original version of Unraid on the server was 6.6.6, and the data disks are encrypted.
