  P

  Thanks you guys for testing the l5630 cpu, this gave me confidence to upgrade my dell r610 with 2x x5675 cpus with hypervisor 8.0, upgrade was done with iso and cd and the upgrade process went very smooth, server boot up and everything seems almost nice. i did notice it load cpu microcode rev 1f on boot, i also notices systemd is throwing a error on boot: systemd failed to load kernel modules, this has no impact and the host is running fine with no error other than that. i suspect the error might be related to upgrade fra 7.6, i will try to reinstall 8.0 as a fresh install and see if this clears the kernel modules stuff.

  Just updated my homelab server from XCP-ng 7.6 to XCP-ng 8.0 Beta, so far so good. I also tested the new experimental UEFI mode with Windows VM, seems good too. I also tested the new XOA deployment through the Web interface of my host, perfect ! We will see during the following week how it goes

  No one raised their hands, and yet an update candidate for 7.5 is available with the fixes backported from 7.6. Install it with yum update --enablerepo='xcp-ng-updates_testing' microcode_ctl xen-dom0-libs xen-dom0-tools xen-hypervisor xen-libs xen-tools We've tested it locally, works fine for us.

  Reviewed my server versions after rolling back to 7.6.3.20, that was a misunderstanding on my part. It's just 6.5 that we are primarily running that is now incompatible. I was mixing that up with another hypervisor's versioning system.

  @Kalloritis I'm not sure about that. You see a stack of "unknown" functions because the tapdisk binary was not compiled with all debug symbols, contrary to qemu-dp. And I'm waiting for the next XenServer release before continuing this diary.

  I don't know what's xo-updater, maybe an external script, but it's not the upstream one from XOA or XO project. And yes, there is some patches sometime (for xo-server, which is one package of Xen Orchestra). For example, xo-server in 5.38.0 never landed in XOA, because we did some QA before and found some issues. We patched it, and then we've done some QA again, and then we decided to release Xen Orchestra 5.33. That's why you can have sometimes some surprises from the sources, because it's not officially tested (unlike in XOA)

  Luckily (or not) XenServer is a tiny part of Citrix strategy/revenue/business. So I'm not concerned by this hack.
