    • RE: Updates announcements and testing

      Only updated one host in my pool so far, but it has my TrueNAS VM and network performance looks comparable ⭐

      edit:

      Actually quite an improvement in comparison to my results above

      @stormi Only updated my test host so far, but all looks good to me.... no passthrough issues!!! 🙂

      Will try and update my pool over the weekend and run some FreeBSD speed tests before and after (been waiting for that patch to make it out into the world).

    • RE: Updates announcements and testing

      @stormi A bit late to the party again (must try harder 😰 ) as I have been moving my rack and my test host was not set up and main pool down to running on 2 hosts..... taking one more offline would make Ceph very unhappy!!!....

      Anyway, both test updates applied to my test host and I haven't managed to break anything yet!!! So looks good from my point of view.

    • RE: XCP-ng 8.2.0 RC now available!

      @stormi said in XCP-ng 8.2.0 RC now available!:

      yum update uefistored

      I could only get it (uefistored-0.2.6-1.xcpng8.2.x86_64) to update by yum update uefistored --enablerepo=xcp-ng-testing

      But it has done the trick. No toolstak restart or reboot needed either.

      @olivierlambert ok, if its still planned to be a feature then I'm up for playing.... testing!!

      @ronan-a is this the best way to get the template? The rest of the instructions look pretty simple to follow so I don't think I've got them wrong..... 😄

      Been interested in this since the first blog post but never got round to trying it. Is this still a 'thing'? I'm having little luck trying to get it work and am seeing most of the errors already posted, and have tried the fixes but still no luck. I would guess I may have a template issue.......

      Mainly wondering if its worth some effort or if its best to just run docker in a VM?

      Thanks.

      Hi @stormi is there any easy way to rollback the September updates??? I'm guessing not but I have a strange issue which I think coincides with my last reboot after applying the updates so want to confirm or eliminate as the cause.

      Thanks.
