grub2-set-default 1
/usr/bin/grub2-editenv: error: cannot rename the file /boot/grub2/grubenv.new to /boot/grub2/grubenv: No such fileor directory.

How to fix this error please ?

Should exist, but we'd need to check this, as something else may be playing here, for example, the EFI folders that should exist assuming you're running EFI et al.

In another server this commands fixed the problem:

mount /dev/sdd1 /mnt/
cp /boot/efi/EFI/centos/grub.cfg /mnt/EFI/centos/

mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/
cp /boot/efi/EFI/centos/grub.cfg /mnt/EFI/centos/

mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/
cp /boot/efi/EFI/centos/grub.cfg /mnt/EFI/centos/

But in this new SSD server it doesn't work for me.

Hmhm, I see.

Can you post the full errors here, please, for the commands we provided you?

Do ignore that error for now, have you run all the commands I provided you? If so, have you tried to reboot the server?

Hey there!

Can you confirm the kernel that it's loading? It's loading .15.1 instead of 13.2, I bet, are you able to run rpm -qa|grep kernel as well?

To sum it up, here's what I need you to run:

uname -r

rpm -qa| grep kernel

And in order to attempt to fix it:

grub2-mkconfig -o /etc/grub2.cfg
grub2-mkconfig -o /etc/grub2-efi.cfg
grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg
grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/efi/EFI/centos/grub.cfg​

rsync -avP /boot/efi/EFI/centos/ /boot/efi/EFI/almalinux/
grubby --set-default /boot/vmlinuz-4.18.0-477.13.1.lve.1.el8.x86_64
cp -rp /boot/efi/EFI/almalinux/grubenv /boot/efi/EFI/centos/grubenv​

Do give it a try.

Cheers!
