RE: XCP-ng 8.3 betas and RCs feedback 🚀
@Andrew said in XCP-ng 8.3 beta :
@ravenet I did not have any problems with my Mellanox Connect-4 Lx card during upgrades from 8.2.1 (5.0 driver), to 8.3 (5.4 driver), then update to current 8.3 (5.9 driver), and then update to Xen 4.17.3. My card has the 14.32.1010 firmware. It is not used for the management interface. It is used by VMs and continued to keep the same ethernet name and function for the VMs.
Thanks for testing
I finally got around to updating the firmware on this Mellanox connectx-4 LX adapter. Bit of jumping through hoops to install tools, find proper firmware, but went from FW version14.18.1000 to New FW version: 14.32.1010. Had to do an emergency network reset again, but it's back.
Obviously an incompatibility with the new 5.9 driver with much older mellanox firmware.

RE: Reworking the 'xe-guest-utilities' Repo
@JustinTimperio I can test SLES for you, I'm a SUSE partner so have access. Here's output from a sles11.4,12.4, 12.5, 15 and 15.1. Sorry don't have a sles15.2 spun up (only leap15.2) but easy enough to extrapolate.
Best way to get stuff into their official distro is to have it build on OBSNAME="SLES" VERSION="11.4" VERSION_ID="11.4" PRETTY_NAME="SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 SP4" ID="sles" ANSI_COLOR="0;32" CPE_NAME="cpe:/o:suse:sles:11:4"
NAME="SLES" VERSION="12-SP4" VERSION_ID="12.4" PRETTY_NAME="SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 12 SP4" ID="sles" ANSI_COLOR="0;32" CPE_NAME="cpe:/o:suse:sles:12:sp4"
NAME="SLES" VERSION="12-SP5" VERSION_ID="12.5" PRETTY_NAME="SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 12 SP5" ID="sles" ANSI_COLOR="0;32" CPE_NAME="cpe:/o:suse:sles:12:sp5"

@Andrew Yes 8.3 will be xen 4.17. They've stated that this will be moved out of lab into the 8.3 official branch once they are happy with their and our feedback.

Thanks for your feedback @ravenet !
ill do firther testing later, in case issue is out-of-date firmware on the adapter itself being incompatible with the new driver. ill try and check the mellanox 5.9 changelog for firmware version requirements.

RE: XCP-ng 8.3 betas and RCs feedback 🚀
This update broke my mellanox network drivers for connectx-4 / 4 LX
Seems this latest patches included update from mennalox-mlnxen 5.4 to 5.9I have no networking, and after an emergency network reset, eth0 and eth1 disappeared.
update1: used yum downgrade mellanox-mlnxen-5.4_1.0.3.0-4.xcpng8.3.x86_64
this didn't fix until I did another emergency network reset.Looks like I'm back up and running.
Anyone else able to confirm this bug or am I alone in this hiccup? -
RE: New Rust Xen guest tools
I've done initial testing on Suse SLES/OpenSuse 15.4, 15.5 and the similar opensuse MicroOS 5.5
Installs, runs, reports correct information and stats so far. Basic commands work as expected.
