        exetico The topic of snapshots (and subsequently, backups) for VMs with USB passthrough is an identified one but there's no ETA at the moment.

          stormi Fair. Are there any public issue to follow? Maybe I didn't do my search that well? Thank you for the answer.

                stormi Thanks. I'll cross my fingers for a fix, at some time.

                I also updated yesterday, on my ODROID H3+. Everything worked as expected.

                I noticed that /etc/xensource/usb-policy.conf was send back to stock configuration, so I readded my modification to it. I'm not sure, if that's the expected behavior, after the host update + restart.

                Thank you for the latest update 😊👍.

                  stormi I have updated 8.3 machines, but they are only test machines. I also did a fresh 8.3 install and update. Working as usual.

                    stormi No problem with a rolling pool update of my two playlab host. Pool reports up-to-date and healthy (XO from source). Basic VM and VDI tasks work as expected. Looking good 👍

                          Yes, it is. I opened this upstream issue about it, but no common decision was reached yet: https://github.com/xapi-project/xen-api/issues/4935

                            No problems here updating a testpool with 2x NUC11TNHi5 (i5-1135G7 and I225-LM 2.5GB NIC)
                            Updated both from shell, rebooted master first, then the other NUC.

                                I pushed a few updates to the xcp-ng-base repository. Update with yum update or Xen Orchestra.

                                Changes:

                                • xcp-ng-release* mostly changes for the imminent new release of installer images
                                • openvswitch: fix DoS security issue, CVE-2023-1668
                                • xcp-ng-xapi-plugins: enable installing new packages from Xen Orchestra, and also applying updates from the xcp-ng-linstor repository. This is preliminary work for XOSTOR support in XCP-ng 8.3.
                                • zstd updated to 1.5.5, which is a bugfix release.

                                  stormi ok, installing the patch didn't help the network speed.

                                  Are probably the drivers for the RTK8125B with which there are some bugs. I get full speed when I install Windows 10 on the Asus PN52.

                                      olivierlambert Any plans to support this for manual snapshots as well ? If required we could add [NOSNAP] as well to have an option.

                                        CptHyper I'm not sure to understand what are you talking about. Can you be more specific?

                                          XCP-ng 8.3 does not require a change in the guest tools.

                                            olivierlambert sure, i mean the possibility to exclude disks from Snapshots. You said its only possible if the snapshot is triggered by an Backup job, but i think this would be useful as well for manual snapshots or ones triggered by the API. A separate (additional) naming [NOSNAP] would make sure people have to opt in.
