Would be nice to share our homelabs, might interest new users:

I'll begin:

1 pool with 2x Protectli VP6670 (64GB and 96GB RAM) (2x 10G bonded for VM network, 1x 2,5G for management network).
Both with Internal 1TB SSD as local ext4 SR, 1TB nvme for OS and SR.
NFS-SR on QNAP TBS-h574TX (10G connection) and QNAP TVS-h1288X for backups (10G connection, NFS).

2 switches:
Mikrotik CRS312-4C+8XG for 10G network
Mikrotik CRS328-24P-4S for 1G and POE

Netgate 8200 pfsense for firewall
ODROID-N2+ for HomeAssistant, Uptime Kuma moitoring

@gduperrey 1 HomeLab-Pool (via cli: yum update and reboot), 3 Business-Pools (via RPU), total 7 servers updated without issues.

@olivierlambert Master, commit fcefa: fixed!

@florent Updated.

Did a backup job: OK
Did the mirror job: OK

Great!

@Prilly Man you need to calm down. Your post(s) with shit here shit there has bad "tone".

I don't think this will get a lot of help/attention from Vates.

And they are more than helpful, even without payed support.

@olivierlambert The units are top notch!

I still have 1 FW6C 2 FW6E's (had them running proxmox before, xcp-ng after that but switched to the VP6670 because of 10G network).

NEVER ever had one single issue with them. Also bios updates are easy.

@bleader All pools updated via RPU without issues.

@bleader 2 production polls updated via RPU without issues.

@gskger XCP-NG on ARM/Ampere will be huge!!!!
The running cost of those machines is a big win over x86. Power is expensive in Europe. Hetzner is in full swing on that front.
And not everything runs in Windows I guess it's only the smaller fraction of all the VM's in the world.

Just ordered my 2nd VP6670 for my main pool. You can now select it with xcp-ng preinstalled

@gduperrey said in XCP-ng 8.3 updates announcements and testing:

yum clean metadata ; yum update

OK, I'll try this next time.

P.S I've updated the 2 hosts via XO all teh time from 8.3 beta. Always showed patches available in XO. Started with the previous 8.3 updates that they didn't show and I had to run those commands.

said in XCP-ng 8.3 updates announcements and testing:

@gduperrey I wonder why now I have to run those commands on my hosts each time for the updates to show:

yum clean all
rm -rf /var/cache/yum

Not fun

@gduperrey Can you explain why this is happening and how to get updates showing automatically again?

@gduperrey I wonder why now I have to run those commands on my hosts each time for the updates to show:

yum clean all
rm -rf /var/cache/yum

Not fun

@ronan-a Great, thx again. Had the same issue and wasn't aware that there was a solution

@dthenot Done! Thx a lot.

After 8.3 updates I don't have to do anything I suppose?

@ronan-a Interesting!!! Can you please provide the command for installing the plugin on 8.3 (for those not experienced installing)?

Thx!

@olivierlambert Never heard of them so went to their site and what did I find:

Recommended? By whom? Gives the impression by vates.
And with the webinar below....

fixed in commit fcefa

@olivierlambert Master, commit fcefa: fixed!

@florent I always have/had NBD enabled!
