      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.
