so
and then update with iso 8.3 Of.
Had an old server that kept crashing during the 8.3 Of. installation. It worked with RC1 and then upgraded to 8.3 Of.
Sometime this old things are a bit tricky

Yes, Sandisk USB Stick (Ventoy) in UEFI boot mode. I had also created a standard DVD ROM in order to exclude any differences in such a boot construct.

Did you verify that the checksums matched for the ISO you downloaded, before preparing the media?
The reason being any corruption in the downloaded image can affect the resulting media and their contents. So unexpected things can happen if the media or source media is corrupt, such as an in ability to complete the installation of OS software even at the final stage - boot manager installation.

the install process went fine in BIOS mode!
And yes, the checksum is correct. -
Hello,
Is it necessary to upgrade all hosts in the pool to manage VMs across the entire pool?
I receive the error "NOT_SUPPORTED_DURING_UPGRADE" when attempting to migrate vm and doing snapshots after upgraded a host to 8.3. -
@Robert You can migrate VMs from a host not upgraded yet to a host which was upgraded. Some other operations are not possible. A partially upgraded pool is supposed to the a short transitioning state.
-
@stormi Thanks for the response, probably was something wrong with that pool then, everything seemms to be working after upgraded all hosts to 8.3

This is the end for this nice and useful thread, as XCP-ng 8.3 is not a beta nor a RC anymore: it's a supported release now.
However, we still need your feedback, as we publish update candidates ahead of their official release, for users to test them.
Right now, there's a security update candidate which is to be tested.
I strongly invite everyone who is currently subscribed to this thread to now subscribe to the new, dedicated thread: XCP-ng 8.3 updates announcements and testing, and to verify that their settings allow sending notification e-mails and/or other forms of notification.
