      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.

            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.
