'HomeAssistantCore.update' blocked from execution, system is not healthy

Configuration
57

Also am having the same issue as the multiple people above me. Seems my image or container portainer/portainer-ce:latest is bringing up this issue?

Is the solution to completely remove portainer, update home assistant, re-install portainer latest? Is this necessary? I feel like this is a false error

58

Also would like to add I am using portainer:latest, which for me is 2.15.0

59

same problem, can’t upgrade to core-2022.10.3. docker version 20.10.18

Any of you, who is running Portainer:

The issue comes from Supervisor and it’s latest PRs. The above PR has been added at 2022.9.2 to Supervisor.
But at that time Supervisor was flagging the system as unhealthy only. Since that, another feature has been added to Supervisor, which is if Supervisor flags the system unhealthy, then it blocks the update of core, add-ons, etc.

My understanding would be if you run Portainer, then the system should be flagged as Unsupported and not Unhealthy, as unhealthy flag is now blocking any updates.

Hi. I have the same issue, problem with docker. I removed the portainer and now system is ok. Update from 2022.10.2 to 2022.10.3 is successfull.

62

The second linked pr is about the new auto update feature. It has nothing to do with unhealthy check. Updates have always been blocked when the system is deemed to be unhealthy. I don’t even know how long ago that was added. This pr in November 20202 added the job infrastructure and it included an unhealthy check that blocked updates. So it’s at least that old.

The only thing new here is the first PR you linked. That’s what added portainer to the “unhealthy images” list.

Incorrect. Running a container which is not supervisor or something started by supervisor is not supported. However running container orchestration software like portainer marks the system as unhealthy since it starts other containers and can change almost anything about docker in ways that break supervisor. Portainer isn’t the only one, the list of container orchestration software that has come up in issues and now marks the system as unhealthy is here:

63

But isn’t the unsupported state should be considered for issues?

Also Portainer isn’t provided as a Community Add-on?

64

Can anybody tell me why Home Assistant wants to block portainer? Never hat a problem with it…

65

same question. seems to come with the latest supervisor update

66

Now I could solve it.

sudo docker stop portainer
sudo docker restart hassio_supervisor

But this is an error, isn’t it? I don’t see a reasonable sense why portainer should be a party crasher. Issue, ok. But an error?

let the people decide if portainer is an issue or not. To be honest, this seems to me too strict.
It was running for years and now I’m not able to update anymore

Just read this thread…

Still I think this change misses the target, I assume that the unhealthy/unsupported info is to tell users if you don’t run HA according to official configuration you won’t get support, right?
Blocking HA from execution is another thing, you stop users from doing stuff they want to do, even if they are well aware they’re doing it at their own risk and they won’t be eligable for any kind of support.
There’s probably going to be a lot of complaints about this.

don’t need to remove portainer.
sudo docker stop portainer
sudo docker restart hassio_supervisor
Update HA and then you can start portainer again
(sudo docker start portainer)

Also, no need to reboot host,
sudo docker restart hassio_supervisor
is enough.

…now updating. Evien with docker 20.10.5 (dont need to meet docker 20.10.17 for healthy from docs).

Clearly Portainer was the issue HA was having for this update. I will start portainer as soon as I finish my updates. Never have a problem with it.

docker container list
(my portainer image alias was agitated_johnson)

docker container stop agitated_johnson
docker container restart hassio_supervisor
(back to HA and update)
docker container restart hassio_supervisor
docker container start agitated_johnson

Ok, updated it again. Thought I tried that, but I might be wrong. Thank you again :slight_smile:

Was deprecated from the list of community addons a long time ago. Because it was a source of tons of issues in the HA repos. Where users used it to get in strange configurations and then reported issues when things didn’t work. Hence the unhealthy check.
