Re: [Xen-API] Best way to update XCP to XenServer 6.2



Hi,

 

We are trying to upgrade a whole XCP pool to XenServer 6.2.

All XCP are running over the same HW and, the most important fact, exactly de same CPU.

We have successfully upgraded the master of the pool (following the instructions posted in this thread) and now we have an âhybridâ pool (1 XCP + 1 XS6.2), but when we try to migrate all the VMs in the XCP to XS6.2, XenCenter shows the following error:

 

â- The VM is incompatible with the CPU features of this host.â

 

Here is the âxe host-cpu-infoâ of the two hosts:

-          XCP Host:

Now we are unable to migrate the VMs with âLive migrationâ feature (zero downtime) to XS6.2 and we cannot upgrade the XCP host to XS6.2 .

We have tried to stop a VM and then start on XS6.2 and it works fine, but we want to do the migration in âliveâ mode because is a production server and we cannot stop all the VMs running in it.

 

Have we missed something? Is there a way to upgrade a XCP pool to XS6.2 with âlive migrationâ?

 

By the way, when we restart all hosts in a testing pool, we can see that the XCP host is upgrading automatically (?Â?):

 

 

 

 

Thanks in advance.

Some people, when confronted with a problem, think "I know, I'll use Windows." 
Now they have two problems.
