• RE: New Rust Xen guest tools

  @olivierlambert updating the README will be quick enough... but if the sig is indeed mandatory we need to setup something for this first... and autosigning from a CI rather requires doing that on a trusted runner rather than on gitlab-provided ones, so that requires some provisioning and IT work first.

• RE: XCP-ng 8.3 updates announcements and testing

  New update candidate for you to test!

  A new non-urgent update is ready for user testing before a future collective release. Below are the details.

  ---

  Maintenance updates

  • broadcom-bnxt-en: Update driver to version 1.10.3_232.0.155.5

  Test on XCP-ng 8.3

  yum clean metadata --enablerepo=xcp-ng-testing
  yum update --enablerepo=xcp-ng-testing
  reboot
  

  A reboot is preferable to load the new version of the driver.

  The usual update rules apply: pool coordinator first, etc.

  Versions:

  • broadcom-bnxt-en: 1.10.3_232.0.155.5-1.xcpng8.3

  What to test

  Normal use and anything else you want to test.

  Test window before official release of the updates

  None defined, but early feedback is always better than late feedback, which is in turn better than no feedback

• RE: XCP-ng 8.3 updates announcements and testing

  New update candidate for you to test!

  A new non-urgent update is ready for user testing before a future collective release. Below are the details.

  A bug was found in the Emergency Network Reset due to desynchronisation between xsconsole and XAPI. This issue prevented the Emergency Network Reset from working at all. This update includes the fixes from the upstream xsconsole project to fix it.

  ---

  Maintenance updates

  • xsconsole
    • Backport sync of network reset trigger file path with XAPI to fix emergency network reset
    • Backport fix for pool.conf IPv6 to avoid IPv6 truncation

  Test on XCP-ng 8.3

  yum clean metadata --enablerepo=xcp-ng-testing
  yum update --enablerepo=xcp-ng-testing
  reboot
  

  Reboot is not strictly necessary, but the xsconsole instance running on the first virtual terminal of your host won't be restarted otherwise. If you do not reboot, make sure to start xsconsole from another terminal after the update.

  The usual update rules apply: pool coordinator first, etc.

  Versions:

  • xsconsole: 11.0.8-1.2.xcpng8.3

  What to test

  Normal xsconsole usage, is still useful feedback. However, if possible, the most helpful test would be performing an Emergency Network Reset through xsconsole, making actual configuration changes and verifying that they are correctly applied after reboot.

  Test window before official release of the updates

  None defined, but early feedback is always better than late feedback, which is in turn better than no feedback
