Hi @RS
Just to let you know, there is a branch available to test RPU/install patches with XenServer 8. (xs-8-install-updates)
Feel free to test and give feedback. Thanks

FYI, we have added this feature to our backlog

they are created to ensure the samba mount is not removed by the os or another thread on XO
I would not delete them , especially since they are 0bytes files

@rtjdamen said in Feedback on immutability:

@florent so this does mean it will never work when a forever incremental is used?

you can't have a immutable forever backup without having a infinite length, and an infinite

It may be possible only if we release the constraints.
The immutable script could release the immutability , merge the disks, but that means : the immutability will be lifted from time to time, and the responsibilities of the immutability script will be greater, and we'll need a way to track the vhd to merge and transmit the information to the immutability script

@ewoudstra Simply updating the git repo and rebuilding should be enough, but it depends a lot of how your previous XO.

The data should be kept across version as they are stored in Redis and in a LevelDB database as long as you are using the same ones.

And, as @olivierlambert said, if you cannot figure out the problem, simply export the config of your previous XO and import it into the new one.

Yes, we'll have to test the new version before bumping the max supported version.

In the meantime, if anyone wants to test it on a non-sensitive instance of XO, you can disable the version check in xo-server's config:

[netbox]
checkNetboxVersion = false

But I think I'm already seeing something that we'll have to handle:

The site foreign key field on virtualization.Cluster has been replaced by the scope generic foreign key.
