      @stormi Thank you!

      Are there any planned work related to hot backups of VM's, where a USB device are attached? It's currently not possible.

      In the weekend I ended up moving a single container to a alpine image, so I could continue backing up my primary docker VM. But I was hoping to have rolling backup of the alpine VM, too 😊

          @exetico The topic of snapshots (and subsequently, backups) for VMs with USB passthrough is an identified one but there's no ETA at the moment.

            @stormi Fair. Are there any public issue to follow? Maybe I didn't do my search that well? Thank you for the answer.

                  @stormi Thanks. I'll cross my fingers for a fix, at some time.

                  I also updated yesterday, on my ODROID H3+. Everything worked as expected.

                  I noticed that /etc/xensource/usb-policy.conf was send back to stock configuration, so I readded my modification to it. I'm not sure, if that's the expected behavior, after the host update + restart.

                  Thank you for the latest update 😊👍.

                    @stormi I have updated 8.3 machines, but they are only test machines. I also did a fresh 8.3 install and update. Working as usual.

                      @stormi No problem with a rolling pool update of my two playlab host. Pool reports up-to-date and healthy (XO from source). Basic VM and VDI tasks work as expected. Looking good 👍

                            Yes, it is. I opened this upstream issue about it, but no common decision was reached yet: https://github.com/xapi-project/xen-api/issues/4935

                              No problems here updating a testpool with 2x NUC11TNHi5 (i5-1135G7 and I225-LM 2.5GB NIC)
                              Updated both from shell, rebooted master first, then the other NUC.

                                  I pushed a few updates to the xcp-ng-base repository. Update with yum update or Xen Orchestra.

                                  Changes:

                                  • xcp-ng-release* mostly changes for the imminent new release of installer images
                                  • openvswitch: fix DoS security issue, CVE-2023-1668
                                  • xcp-ng-xapi-plugins: enable installing new packages from Xen Orchestra, and also applying updates from the xcp-ng-linstor repository. This is preliminary work for XOSTOR support in XCP-ng 8.3.
                                  • zstd updated to 1.5.5, which is a bugfix release.

                                    @stormi ok, installing the patch didn't help the network speed.

                                    Are probably the drivers for the RTK8125B with which there are some bugs. I get full speed when I install Windows 10 on the Asus PN52.

                                        @olivierlambert Any plans to support this for manual snapshots as well ? If required we could add [NOSNAP] as well to have an option.

                                          @CptHyper I'm not sure to understand what are you talking about. Can you be more specific?

                                            XCP-ng 8.3 does not require a change in the guest tools.
