      With the latest XCP-ng updates, I am getting dmesg errors. They appeared immediately after yum update finished, and remain after reboot. Anyone seen this before and knows what to do?

      This is a HPE DL325 Gen10 EPYC system with XCP-ng 8.2.1.

        I think I always had it on a similar system. Pinging @dinhngtu in case

          Found a link with similar issue and a fix by disabling ACPI power monitoring. Would that have any impact in XCP-ng - i.e. is this feature used by anything?

          https://www.suse.com/support/kb/doc/?id=000017865

          EDIT: Perhaps it is netdata. I will disable netdata and check again.

            @Forza The link you posted looks to be the same issue, just from a different kernel version.

              @dinhngtu Yes, looks like it. I stopped Netdata and the problem went away. But it is strange it started after the latest set of updates.
