@gduperrey I jumped in all the way by mistake... I updated a wrong host, so I just did them all. Older AMD, Intel E3/E5, NUC11, etc. So far, so good. Add/migrate/backup/etc VMs are working as usual. Good for guest tools too, but mine are mostly Debian 7-11. Stuff is as usual so far.

RE: XCP-ng 8.3 public alpha 🚀
@stormi I have 8.3 alpha+updates running on an HP DL360 G8 and it's working as expected since currently it's mostly an update to 8.2... I did an ISO install/update and it went ok. I did have to re-install some packages that were installed before on 8.2 and fix options that were removed during the 8.3 install but it keep most of XCP/Network/VM config.

RE: Updates announcements and testing
@gduperrey It's working for me, but my CPUs are not covered by the update. Normal operations seem normal.

RE: Xen-guest-tools installation problems
@wlp94114 I have the same bug with OPNsense.
This is an error in the Xen guest tools package, not XCP.
You can rename libxenstore.so.4.0 to libxenstore.so.4 or wait for them to fix the package (an upstream FreeBSD issue).

RE: Delta Backups using wrong Base Backup
@Hannes_5253 As new delta backups are added old ones are merged into the old full backup and not just removed. So the old full backup will have a newer date because it's modified as the old delta backups are merged into it.
You should have one or two full backups on disk (but not the restore list). The old deltas are merged into the old full until there is a newer full backup AND all older deltas are gone and it's just newer deltas after the newer full backup.
Deltas (for XO) always work back to older fulls not forward to newer fulls.

RE: USB Passthrough of licensing dongle
@Kajetan321 I have not used that item but I was going to post it as I also found reviews that said it was used for a dongle to connect to a windows VM. Not cheap and known for poor software and support.

RE: Windows Server 2022 Essentials
@olivierlambert @geep87 Dell ROK is Reseller Option Kit. It's media that's licenced locked to only be installed on that Dell machine.
The installer needs to see the hardware BIOS under XCP/Xen. Dell lists an install process but it seems to be incomplete for Xen.
Try selecting
Copy host BIOS strings to VM
under the Advanced section during the install. -

RE: XO task watcher issue/CR broken
@olivierlambert Yes. Still problems on the new code without the option set. 90% of the VMs fail 10% finish correctly on CR.

RE: XO task watcher issue/CR broken
@julien-f I updated XO Source to current master and added the new ignorePrematureClose=true option. Backup ran the CR correctly again.
Yes, I can leave the XOA test tunnel up for testing. I'm happy to help you help me!
