@jmccoy555 @Danp what's your XAPI version?

rpm -q xapi-core xapi-xe xapi-tests

[BenjiReis]

Also which version of XO are using? What kind of backup were you trying to restore?

[Danp]

# rpm -q xapi-core xapi-xe xapi-tests
xapi-core-1.214.1-2.4.xcpng8.1.x86_64
xapi-xe-1.214.1-2.4.xcpng8.1.x86_64
xapi-tests-1.214.1-2.4.xcpng8.1.x86_64

[BenjiReis]

@jmccoy555 Can we have the full XO log with the name of the action that created the error?
Can we have the XCP-ng log as well corresponding to this error?

Works - Fresh RC1 install as a VM
xapi-core-1.214.1-2.2.xcpng8.1.x86_64
xapi-xe-1.214.1-2.2.xcpng8.1.x86_64
xapi-tests-1.214.1-2.2.xcpng8.1.x86_64

Fails - The above with patches applied
xapi-core-1.214.1-2.5.xcpng8.1.x86_64
xapi-xe-1.214.1-2.5.xcpng8.1.x86_64
xapi-tests-1.214.1-2.5.xcpng8.1.x86_64

I have tried a restore from a scheduled XO back up.

I also have exported the VM from XO as a .XVA and tried importing with XO and XCP-ng center, both fail but work with 8.1 RC1 before patches.

xo-server 5.57.3
xo-web 5.57.1

I'll have to dig the logs out later if still required.[0_1585573752708_2020-03-30T13_19_28.603Z - XO.log](Uploading 0%)

[BenjiReis]

@jmccoy555 Thanks for the info, can you precise what kind of backup you were using? Delta? continuous replication?

thanks

[jmccoy555]

@BenjiReis 'Backup' and 'Export' from the VM screen in XO.

[BenjiReis]

Ok thanks!

[olivierlambert]

Good news! I'm able to reproduce the issue

@jmccoy555 said in XCP-ng 8.1 Release Candidate now available!:

xapi-core-1.214.1-2.5.xcpng8.1.x86_64
xapi-xe-1.214.1-2.5.xcpng8.1.x86_64
xapi-tests-1.214.1-2.5.xcpng8.1.x86_64

My server is fully patched (no updates showing in XO). Can someone please explain why these updates aren't showing up for me?

[jmccoy555]

Don't suppose there's a quick way to rollback is there?

[Danp]

@jmccoy555 You could try the following (untested!) --

yum downgrade xapi-core-1.214.1-2.4.xcpng8.1.x86_64 xapi-xe-1.214.1-2.4.xcpng8.1.x86_64 xapi-tests-1.214.1-2.4.xcpng8.1.x86_64

Not sure if there are other packages that would need rolled back as well.

[jmccoy555]

@Danp

rpm -q xapi-core xapi-xe xapi-tests
xapi-core-1.214.1-2.4.xcpng8.1.x86_64
xapi-xe-1.214.1-2.4.xcpng8.1.x86_64
xapi-tests-1.214.1-2.4.xcpng8.1.x86_64

on my other physical host and that is causing me issues. Guess I'll have to do a reinstall back to RC1.

yum downgrade xapi-core-1.214.1-2.2.xcpng8.1.x86_64 xapi-xe-1.214.1-2.2.xcpng8.1.x86_64 xapi-tests-1.214.1-2.2.xcpng8.1.x86_64

[stormi]

Fixed packages will be available shortly. Thanks for finding this important regression.

[stormi]

They are now available in xcp-ng-testing for XCP-ng 8.1.

yum update --enablerepo=xcp-ng-testing

[olivierlambert]

Fixed to me. @jmccoy555 can you try again after updating?

[jmccoy555]

@olivierlambert yep after a

yum makecache
yum update

everything appears to be good

[olivierlambert]

thanks!

[jmccoy555]

@stormi Nice to do something useful and give a little back, other than buying a XCP-ng cushion for my office!

[olivierlambert]

Feedback/tests is REALLY vital for the community We might have spotted this, or not. So we spared bundling another ISO/upgrade after the release Thanks again!
