        @FritzGerald workaround

        yum update --exclude=net-snmp*
        

        This is dangerous.

        @stormi Do you see any immediate threat? I am asking since it is working so far for me

          You can install nut on a separate (small) machine and let it ssh to Your master and run a shutdown script.
          That's how I do it since a while back when the NUT-package was temporarily removed from the extra repo

            Yes this "extra" tool was not (never?) supported ,

            NUT has never been supported in XCP-ng, it has been asked about for a long time though and a lot of people handle XCP-ng not as an appliance but as any other Server/Desktop system and install packages because they aren't blocked from doing so

              @rzr @stormi @olivierlambert Please consider this such a request. NUT's functionality at the small system/appliance level (i.e. not datacenter) of use is too useful to ignore but not enough to build a dedicated VM for on systems/appliances with limited resources.

                  Not a great response, if this is really a need paying customers should go and put a request in on the ticketing side.

                    In case my experience can help with this problem:

                    The package causing compatibility issues is nut, but nut-client works and allows the xcp-ng hosts update.

                    I installed nut-client and defined the pool hosts as clients, with my nut server on a Truenas server.

                    This installation is working and has allowed me to continue using nut on my hosts.

                      Hi, I had a look at it and may have something to be tested soon (TBC https://github.com/xcp-ng-rpms/nut/pull/1 )

                      Is any of you volunteering for testing an extra (unsupported?) package ?
                      Or if the client is enough maybe we can put this on hold unless there is more traction?

                      Reminder: https://docs.xcp-ng.org/management/additional-packages/

                        @rzr Hi. Thank you very much. I will be setting up a new server within the next 2 weeks and will definitely test it. Then I will give you feedback! Thank you again for picking it up!

                          Hello, sorry for not getting back earlier. I had some "other" unexpected trouble-shooting project.

                          Since I have never installed this type of "dev" package, I just wanted to let others know how to install (please to so on a testing server). Besides that, just run:

                          yum install nut --enablerepo=xcp-ng-ci
                          

                          That's it. At least installation on my newly setup and completely patched test "XCP-ng 8.3" server worked like a charme:

                          [22:41 xcp-test ~]# yum install nut --enablerepo=xcp-ng-ci
                          Loaded plugins: fastestmirror
