XCP-ng 8.2.1 (maintenance update) - final testing sprint
-
@gskger If you can find time for it, you can just update to the latest state of the staging branch with
yum update --enablerepo=xcp-ng-staging. Else no problem. -
New installation ISOs (
test6) are available at https://updates.xcp-ng.org/tmp/. The netinstall repository was also updated.The only changes since the last ones are the removal of igc and r8125 drivers that I had attempted to add in
test5.These should be the final ones, so it's always good if some of you can test them one last time before the release.
-
@stormi Some quick testing of the alternate kernel on my test systems seems to be working fine with the not-unexpected issue that the XOSTOR test does not come up and run on it.
-
@stormi That was an easy 2.8k update on both hosts with no problem. VMs continue to run without any issues so far.
-
@stormi https://www.asus.com/Motherboards-Components/Motherboards/TUF-Gaming/TUF-GAMING-Z690-PLUS-WIFI-D4/HelpDesk_QVL_CPU/ for this motherboard igc drivers work only for xcp, i have trouble in VM with VLANs: DHCP work, but no ping to gateway...
-
@rus2lan The igc driver we backported from the 4.20 kernel doesn't appear to be working well indeed. That's why I did not include it in the final release of XCP-ng 8.2.1 ISOs.
-
XCP-ng 8.2.1 is now released. A huge thanks to everyone who tested and gave feedback to us.
-
I upgraded 3 of my homelab hosts, all were up-to-date 8.2's before this update. One of them blurted out this right at the end of the upgrade, but I did not observe any negative consequences yet.

@apz The script that deletes then recreates the guest templates when they are updated apparently failed on your host. Are there any missing templates in your template list?
-
@stormi The affected host has only 2 templates, 2022 Windows and Suse 12.
-
@apz Try to re-run the script that failed:

@apz If you run it again, does it fail at the exact same place?
-
@stormi I ran it 5 times in a row. Always after base-windows-8.json.
-
@apz does
rpm -V guest-templates-json guest-templates-json-data-linux guest-templates-json-data-other guest-templates-json-data-windowsgive any output (it would reveal if there's a corrupted file)? -
@stormi This command did not produce any output, so I assume the packages are fine.
-
@apz does it still fail if you reinstall them anyway?

The error message suggests an internal network error message. Does this host have custom iptables rules, or xapi.conf entries?
-
@stormi I have not touched xapi.conf, iptables has one additional rule to default, which allows port 4949 in. It's copy-paste of other rules in /etc/sysconfig/iptables, save changed port.
