OpenBSD 6.9 is released! There are two ways you can upgrade your VM.
Either use sysupgrade(8) or do a manual upgrade.
The ntpd options -s and -S are going to be removed soon and at startup with print:
-s option no longer works and will be removed soon. Please reconfigure to use constraints or trusted servers.
Make sure you remove -s from ntpd_flags from /etc/rc.conf.local. For more information marc.info.

Fetching updated firmware. Upgrading.
Your VM will reboot and start the upgrade process. You can follow this via the console if you want.
Check 6.9 errata and apply available patches.
vm03$ doas syspatch ... Relinking to create unique kernel... done; reboot to load the new kernel Errata can be reviewed under /var/syspatch vm03# reboot Connection to XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX closed by remote host.
To get connected to the console you need to have access to the host your VM is running on. The same username and public SSH key, as provided for the VM, are used to create a local user on the host.
When this is done you can use vmctl(8) to manage your VM.
The options you have are:
server10$ vmctl console id server10$ vmctl start [-c] id server10$ vmctl stop [-fw] id
-f Forcefully stop the VM without attempting a graceful shutdown.
-w Wait until the VM has been terminated.
-c Automatically connect to the VM console.
Note: id can also be your VM name.
Upgrade your VM by downloading bsd.rd and moving it to /
vm03$ ftp -V https://cdn.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/6.9/amd64/{bsd.rd,SHA256,SHA256.sig}
bsd.rd 100% |**********************************| 10149 KB 00:01

vm03$ signify -Cp /etc/signify/openbsd-69-base.pub -x SHA256.sig bsd.rd

bsd.rd: OK
vm03$ doas install -g wheel -o root -m 700 bsd.rd /
vm03$
When that is done you can reboot your VM and make sure you boot the
new bsd.rd. You will be prompted for what do to. Select either
(U)pgrade or (A)utoinstall.
After selecting (U)pgrade can pretty much enter your way through. The one exception might be the install sets.
You can also use (A)utoinstall, your VM will look for upgrade.conf.
The one we are providing is:
Server directory? = pub/OpenBSD/6.9/amd64
The below install example will be very similar between (U)pgrade and (A)utoinstall.
SeaBIOS (version 1.11.0p0-OpenBSD-vmm)

Welcome to the OpenBSD/amd64 6.9 installation program.

At any prompt except password prompts you can escape to a shell by
typing '!'. Default answers are shown in []'s and are selected by
pressing RETURN. You can exit this program at any time by pressing
Control-C, but this can leave your system in an inconsistent state.

Let's upgrade the sets!
Location of sets? (disk http or 'done') [http]

Select sets by entering a set name, a file name pattern or 'all'. De-select
sets by prepending a '-', e.g.: '-game*'. Selected sets are labelled '[X]'.
