XCP-ng 8.3 updates announcements and testing

Nice catch! I have the same issue here
-
Indeed, we forgot to tell you about this temporary regression. They're coming back in the next batch of updates, as soon as CI is green!

Hehe congrats @Greg_E for finding the Easter egg then

I can't do a lot with testing, but sometime I find the odd things that other don't look at. I have been staring at the stats pages for the last few days trying to work out some backup issues, so it was one of those things I just normally looked at.
Also in my lab, with the little tiny processors, I like to keep track of what's going on, on think that lead me to nuke the lab and start over, the old VMs were just not right and might have been down to over provisioned CPU from the old big lab migration.
No surprise, but those stats are also flat line in XO-Lite. I've been using XO-Lite a bit more, I think it's going to be good when you get done building it.

what is CI ?
-
@AlexanderK CI/QA is our testing and integration environment. We run a number of tests to validate that XCP-ng works properly with these new versions, before making them available to our testers in the testing repository.

@Greg_E Please try restarting the toolstack once more.
-
Restarting the tool stack fixed it. Thanks!

@dthenot After the upgrade, it is not possible to create a new machine from a template if the VPS disk is not on the SR where the template disk is.
P.S.: Unfortunately, moving the disk from one SR to another does not work. After moving the disk it becomes corrupt, and after reset it will not boot.

Is there a nightly built iso that I could test?
my problem is that I have no network interface realtek 8125 that functions in 8.2 or 8.3.
I would love to check if there has been any changes made that are coming that would solve this.
the driver for r8125 in xcp-ng is 9.012, latest downloadable is 9.015 at realtek but I do not know how to get it compiled and installed. -
@HenrikSchmidt We don't currently offer regular ISO builds. The most recent ISOs are available.
The driver you're talking about is integrated into the kernel, and to my knowledge, there are no updates for it at the moment. @Andrew is currently working on an alternate driver package, but the PR seems to be waiting for his response.
This type of driver can be loaded at the beginning of the installation with an ISO by pressing
F9when the menu prompts. You can then load an additional driver for the installation, and install it on the future system later in the procedure when prompted.As this is not an issue with the latest updates, I suggest you create a dedicated thread. This would give you better visibility and help from the community on this issue.

Ok, I havea thread about my problem but it has not gotten any solutions so far.
The realtek is distributed as source files, not a package so I cant just add it in without knowing how to make a package. I was just hoping that the 8125 package in the distibution might have been updated later then the official distros.Thanks anyway.
