Orange exclamation mark without errors

burbilog

XOCE shows yellow exclamation mark on Pools menu entry, but there are no errors in host list...

Xen Orchestra, commit 07bd9
xo-server 5.93.1
xo-web 5.96.0

olivierlambert

Do you have the same behavior with XOA?

burbilog

@olivierlambert I did not connect XOA to other hw servers. Is it safe to run both xoa and xoce in parallel on all hw servers?

olivierlambert

Yes

burbilog

@olivierlambert Yes, I connect all four machines. No complaints in XOA.

olivierlambert

Any info when you hover above the triangle?

@olivierlambert "Missing patches"

Funny thing, one of these hw servers is kinda old with 8.2.0 xcp-ng and there ARE missing patches. But no such notifications neither in XOA or XOCE right now.

Whoa. Just noticed. Red badge with number of patches appear in XOCE! But only after a while, if I leave that browser window for a while. But XOA shows no notification at all.

olivierlambert

Maybe there's an issue or slow internet connection? Since detecting patches is not done by XO but by the host directly (but XO is asking the host to check)

@olivierlambert Anyway, I don't understand why XOA does not detect them at all

olivierlambert

It's more complicated than that. Ideally, starting the plugin manually with xe would be more interesting.

Eg:

xe host-call-plugin host-uuid=<uuid> plugin=updater.py fn=check_update

@olivierlambert said in Orange exclamation mark without errors:

plugin=updater.py fn=check_update

Where can I run this command? On the host with missing patches?

burbilog

@burbilog

It seems to return

{"error": "The updater plugin is busy (current operation: check_update)"}

all the time on that server.

The updater plugin is busy

https://xcp-ng.org/docs/troubleshooting.html#the-updater-plugin-is-busy

burbilog

@olivierlambert Well, after erasing that file it appears again with the same "check_update" contents.

olivierlambert

Is just a yum update working?

burbilog

@olivierlambert No, it does not. Still, sometimes badge with patches blink... funny.
