    This should be fixed now, or at least in the next available snapshot after this post. A fix went into the repo a while ago, but you may have to use auto-update to grab it, or do a console upgrade.

          I was wondering about this too since I thought I fubered the firmware update from the latest snapshot this morning.   I am going to do a manual update via the console tonight.  Let me know when the next snapshot fixes it.

          Thanks.

              There were some more commits that went in tonight that might fix this.

                The auto-update didn't work for me.  Is there a way to fix /etc/rc.initial.firmware_update file so it can get the manual updates?

                        Glad to know the latest snapshot fixes it.

                        However, how do we fix our broken updates?  I tried manual update via the console and it gives me this error:

                        Fatal error: Call to undefined function: mark_subsystem_dirty() in /etc/rc.initial.firmware_update on line 47

                        I really hate the thought of complete reinstall via a ISO CD as I like to keep the traffic logs and stuff.

                          You can copy a "good" /etc/rc.initial.firmware_update from a working system, CD, etc on top of that file on a broken system. There are any number of ways to do this (scp, edit file in the gui and copy/paste, etc)

                              I'm having problems even with the newest updates.  I'm going back to the stable ones for now.
                              Looks like the snapshots site is down for 1.2.3 anyways.

                                I just installed XenServer 5.5.0 and I am running snapshots.  I was able to recover for a failure in just about 10 seconds.  I converted a snapshot to a template it's running great.  I can create a snap prior to doing a update and can recover very quicky if it blows up.
