I decided to install a new server and use ronivay's script from github to install and later update XOCE. It is working well for me and I'm not going to work on fixing the other server now.

@Danp Restarted whole server.

@julien-f Here is my latest attempt. I added a git pull as the first command and it shows 6 changes files. I rebooted after all of the below commands and no change in the UI for commits behind, now at 8. Note several warnings in the output as well.

[root@localhost xen-orchestra-202405211937]#

@Danp [root@localhost xen-orchestra-202405211937]# git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD

master

I ran the following commands in the xen-orchestra folder and the first time it showed I was totally up to date.

git checkout .
git pull --ff-only
yarn
yarn build

I then tried it again a couple days later when I noticed a was a couple of commits behind and nothing changed, commits behind stayed the same.

Running git pull now says everything is up to date, but the UI shows I'm not.

Thoughts?

Good question - my problem would be resolved with a manual update of XO (from sources) to current commit level. I don't recall how I installed the older XOs I have and they are 645 commits behind on commit 49089. If it is simple to update XO from sources, that would be ideal. I'm wondering though why backup jobs aren't part of the metadata/config of the pool.

I've noticed configured backup jobs exist only in the XO version they were configured in. Is there a way to share those jobs or migrate them without manually removing them from the original and setting them up from scratch on the new XO from sources?
