      On a test machine, I've upgraded from Xenserver 7.2 directly to this version and it worked fine. I've used PXE network installation to upgrade.
      Congrats on this release!

        GFS2 is supported, like XenServer?

            @_danielgurgel No, GFS2 is not an open source feature in XenServer, it's proprietary. ๐Ÿ˜•

                  wget https://updates.xcp-ng.org/7/xcp-ng-7.5.repo -O /etc/yum.repos.d/xcp-ng-7.5.repo
                  yum install xcp-ng-deps
                  yum update
                  reboot

                  I was expect, to see 'update' message in new xcp-ng-center, after install repo and deps - but is not show anything.

                  Anyway, command line update works good.

                          I'm not sure to get everything you wrote here.

                          1. mv: cannot stat โ€˜/usr/sbin/lvmetadโ€™: No such file or directory is identified and reported to Citrix. It's not XCP-ng specific.
                          2. What do you mean by "test connection"?
                          3. Does USB passthrough worked before on 7.4.1?
                          4. What kind of modification did you do on 7.4.1 before updating? was it "vanilla" or you installed/configured some stuff on it?
                          5. apcupsd doesn't sound coming from vanilla XCP-ng

                              Ok
                            2. What do you mean by "test connection"?
                              The hypervisor successfully connected to the NAS, for the purpose of importing a saved VM. The VM started OK.
                            3. Does USB passthrough worked before on 7.4.1?
                              Only showed the UPS usb device, never the U-Blox AG , this is the same situation with 7.5 (Thread USB Passthrough 20 Jun 2018, 14:13)
                              Both versions show the device U-Blox AG using the lsusb command.
                            4. What kind of modification did you do on 7.4.1 before updating? was it "vanilla" or you installed/configured some stuff on it?
                              Installed apupsd (Thread Apcupsd UPS support 15 Apr 2018, 17:33)
                              The upgrade appears to have removed the apcupsd daemon, /usr/sbin/apcupsd, but not the service definition

                            Citrix did not support apcupsd, but Citrix upgrades in the past did not remove it.

                            1. apcupsd doesn't sound coming from vanilla XCP-ng
                              No, but ups support is essential for safeguarding the system.

                              Yeah but Citrix isn't relying on Yum to upgrade ๐Ÿ˜‰ If you want to be "defensive", then upgrade via the ISO on boot, not on a live system ๐Ÿ™‚

                              Problably a dependency thing.

                                Hi

                                I do not quite understand your answer, please can you clarify.
                                The system was clean installed from 7.4, 7.41 to 7.5, all xcp-ng.
                                The ony addition was the ups yum , as described in my thread.
                                Are you suggesting that a clean install will

                                1. fix the pass through for the Ublox?
                                2. To get ups support I must repeat my extra ups software install,?
                                  unless xcp-ng is going to provide an alternative package for UPS support?

                                Thanks

                                Aimee

                                    Update: done.

                                      I pushed several update candidates to the RC in the updates_testing repository:

                                      • vhd-tool fixing two bugs:
                                        • "VDI import seems broken for large VHD files" https://bugs.xenserver.org/browse/XSO-868
                                        • "VDI export fails with VDI I/O error" https://bugs.xenserver.org/browse/XSO-873
                                      • xen security update

                                      To test: yum update --enablerepo='xcp-ng-updates_testing*' and reboot.

                                      What we need is to make sure they cause no regressions.

                                      Thanks!

                                        Is this interfering with the ZFS packages or there is no issue to do it? (especially blktap)
