XCP-ng 8.3 betas and RCs feedback 🚀
-
@r0ssar00 hi, that issue would arise if you ran this script with python3, but it's interpreter is set as
/usr/bin/python- How did you call this script, did you manually call it with python3? It should be ran by just running the command on the CLI eginterface-rename -
@stormi
Updated ryzen 1700 late last week, and Threadripper 5975 and Epyc 7313p servers. No issues so far.
Installing fresh on epyc 9224 this week -

I can not see anything underNetwork throughputin XO-liteedit:
When I hover I can see the numbers but no graphI updated to latest version
Same again, no graphs -
@ph7 You seem to be the only one with this issue remaining. Maybe try a reinstall?
-
Hi there,
i was wondering for the install Image via ipxe, will there be something? I have it, that currently it only works with Legacy Bios and not the UEFI one.
-
@Houbsi The best we can do with ipxe is chaining to grub, because ipxe doesn't support multiboot2 in EFI mode.
-
I updated a test pool with 2 Intel NUC11TNHi5 hosts last week.
The updates went smooth. No issues after reboot.Can't wait till 8.3 goes live!
-
@fohdeesha I just did a reinstall of the interface-rename package to make sure I hadn't changed the shebang in the past, the reinstalled copy declares python3
-
I've notice the same python3 glitch.
You could manually amend /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/interface-rename-data/static-rules.conf if that's an option for you. -
@r0ssar00 @NoHeadroom Thanks for the feedback. You're both right, there's an issue. We will fix it ASAP.
-
I just pushed a few updates. Nothing worth mentioning, just a few minor fixes before the RC. The update might look big because XAPI was rebuilt, so many packages generated by this build are updated.
The interface-rename fix is to follow next, when it's ready.
-
@stormi updated 2 hosts (2 pools) and rebooted. No issues.

Anyway, I've pushed the fixed
interface-renameto thexcp-ng-baserepository. Just update, and this will be fixed. -
@stormi Update of my XCP-ng 8.3 test server through CLI (
yum update) and rebooted. All VMs work as expected. -
@stormi
I ran the updates and now my graphs in XO-lite are back.
weird -

Anyway, it's better to have an option b) if option a) fails

As you wish, but I won't support option b) in any case, so I prefer to mention it

I'm excited about the 8.3 production release. With that said, I joined XCP-ng with the 8.3 release, and it has been rock solid. I mean, there has been a few bugs, but nothing impacting the stability.
I also faced problems with controlling power-state of my VMs (reboot) yesterday, but after installing the latest patches to my host (through XO), and rebooted the host, things worked again, as expected.

:Reboot after update

Question : What's the "upgrade path" for us starting on 8.3 alpha. Is it just a question about updating the system, and nothing else?
Or, should I plan some kind of operation, so I can "switch" to a stable 8.3 release at some time? Like switching from unstable to a stable branch in Manjaro. Maybe it should make sense to include something about that, in a upcoming final release for 8.3. I bet other people with ar8125NIC also jumped directly on 8.3 alpha, due to the build-in support for that NIC.Just a notice for the "newbies" like myself

Remember to update your Xen Orchestra from time to time. I can't really explain why, but I've not thought about that at all. So yesterday I updated from a march 2023 commit, to the most recent one. Not much was changed, but I guess some kind of incompatibilities could be expected, after more than one year without a single update of Xen Orchestra

.Actually there have been HUGE changes in 1 year! You should check them out (only the last weeks big changes to how backups/snapshots work).
Keep it updated and follow Vates' blog to have the news and changes. -
March 2023 means almost 16 releases since, and you can see the amount of change done each release, multiply it by 16…
