How do I apply host patches in XO-6?
-
Hi there!
I'm using XO from source.
I can't see how to apply patches to a host from the GUI in XO-6; it reports that there are patches, but there's no option to apply them. I have to switch to XO-5, or use the command line.
Has this made it into the UI yet and I'm just missing it?
(FWIW, this is a home lab, and I have only a single host in a single pool. I don't know if the GUI has safety checks to prevent patching a machine with running VM's.)

At the moment you can't this is a WIP. You'll swap over to the v5 interface and perform your patching there. Unless you wanted to login to your pool master, manually patch that and then reboot it, lastly manually patching your remaining hosts in the pool.

@DustinB thank you!
I suspected as much, but as my wife points out all the time, I am terrible at finding things, so I figured I would ask.
