@TrapoSAMA https://updates.xcp-ng.org/isos/8.2/
And https://updates.xcp-ng.org/8/8.2/ appears fine. -
Hi Teddy,
I was referring to version 8.2 specifically Citrix and its patches.
However, having the various versions of XenTools for some older Windows systems would also be useful. Would that be possible?
thx

Are there any reason your still on Xen Server 8.2 as it went EOL during last year, and no longer receives any updates? It may be time to upgrade to a newer version of that product, or better yet migrate to XCP-ng version 8.3.0 LTS. Which is under current support and will be that way until 2028 unless obtained with ELTS for when it goes EOL!
If you migrate to XCP-ng 8.3.0 LTS you can also switch the agents, to the open source rust based agents which do the same job.

Hello! in this moment i'm working with XCP 8.3 in a DL360G7. Is running good, but some systems are legacy like 2008R2 o 2012R2 and cant migrate for now to new versions. Then i need xentools compatible, but i dont find any alternative download site.
or xcp tools work fine with this old windows ? i dont test tools in this moment for many reason
Thx

Unfortunately not for anything older than Windows Server 2016 and Windows 10. However Windows Server 2008 R2 and Windows Server 2012 R2, need the Xen Tools, but are also EOL operating systems. Additional support is completely gone for Windows Server 2008 R2 from Microsoft, still available for now for Windows Server 2012 R2, however also disappears during October 2026.
Your legacy systems are in a potential state of increasing vulnerability and/or security risk. Someway of upgrading or migrating them needs to be found.

Oh yes!! but client have still working app and cant upgrade in this moment!

An instance of that agent maybe held in the contents of one of the XenServer installation media, with a compatible old enough version of the agent compared to current. Though running such old versions, may mean you end up running vulnerable versions of any drivers needed.
Plus they also have the situation where they can’t, benefit from major improvements. For one thing the highly performing and memory safe agents.
7.2.x guest agent can be found here http://downloadns.citrix.com.edgesuite.net/14644/managementagentx64.msi
8.x guest agent is in the 8.2.x Xen Server media, so if you have a copy of the ISO, or on an optical disk then it can be found there!

I have this iso but how to know what is de package?
Thx
It’s going to be an msi installer package or on the guest tools iso, which is on the XCP-ng or Xen Server your running likely in Local Storage SR or Shared Storage SR (if moved). Named the same as the file linked to above, likely.
Anyway did you know that the UEFI SecureBoot certificates (at least one of them from 2011) issued by Microsoft are expiring fully during October 2026. Around that time likely at sometime after then those certificates will be placed into dbx. This means the Windows Server 2012 R2 if operating as a UEFI SecureBoot VM, will if restarted (or reboot following a crash), fail to boot.
So your client will go from having a working app that they can use, but not upgrade at the moment to one which won’t work and can’t be used! They really need to upgrade or migrate from Windows to Linux (released during 2025 or 2026) along with the app if needed. Alternatively upgrade to Windows Server 2022 or 2025 and the app!
