Orange exclamation mark without errors

Funny thing, one of these hw servers is kinda old with 8.2.0 xcp-ng and there ARE missing patches. But no such notifications neither in XOA or XOCE right now.

Whoa. Just noticed. Red badge with number of patches appear in XOCE! But only after a while, if I leave that browser window for a while. But XOA shows no notification at all.

Maybe there's an issue or slow internet connection? Since detecting patches is not done by XO but by the host directly (but XO is asking the host to check)

@olivierlambert Anyway, I don't understand why XOA does not detect them at all

It's more complicated than that. Ideally, starting the plugin manually with xe would be more interesting.

Eg:

xe host-call-plugin host-uuid=<uuid> plugin=updater.py fn=check_update

plugin=updater.py fn=check_update

Where can I run this command? On the host with missing patches?

@burbilog

It seems to return

{"error": "The updater plugin is busy (current operation: check_update)"}

all the time on that server.

The updater plugin is busy

burbilog

@olivierlambert Well, after erasing that file it appears again with the same "check_update" contents.

olivierlambert

Is just a yum update working?

burbilog

@olivierlambert No, it does not. Still, sometimes badge with patches blink... funny.
