Xen users - Nov 2013 - XCP 1.6 - Upgrading and hotfixing

Hi all,

I am pretty much a newbie to XCP, trying to find my way around things.

Firstly: I am finding it really difficult to find reliable, easy to digest,
information around Xen and XCP for someone who''s starting with it. Is
it
only me, or forums, tutorials and documentation around XCP are really
sparse? If someone could point me a few useful information resources, apart
from the wiki <http://wiki.xenproject.org>, I would be extremely grateful.

I have noticed that the xcp yum repo is disabled by default on my dom0
machines. I also dry tested a yum upgrade, and noticed that there''s a
new
version of the hypervisor available. Is it safe to upgrade the hypervisor
while running XCP 1.6? I see version 4.1.3-1.6.10.513.23557 is available
for upgrade.

I would also be interested in knowing the best practices for hotfixing XCP.
Is there an official patches repository? What would be the best approach on
applying these hotfixes?

Thanks in advance,
Gabriel

This list deals primarily with users of the toolstacks which ship with
Xen. For XCP issues you would be better off on the xen-api@ list or one
of the www.xenserver.org lists (XCP now comes under that umbrella).
