Centos 8 after Kernel upgrade Xen Tools causes errors

[Dominic Masse]

Hi, we have a host with Xenserver 8.0,  with Centos 8 VM

 

on the Centos 8 VM, the kernel have been upgraded, after that in the /var/log/message we get at each minute the following error:

 

"xe-daemon[1119]: CollectOS error: &os.PathError{Op:"open", Path:"/var/cache/xe-linux-distribution", Err:0x2}"

 

I tried to update the tools but doesn't work, or perhaps I don't have the correct procedure?

 

Is this a knowed issues?  what can we do to addresses this issue?

 

 

thank you

See if this is of any help. Looks like there's an outdated reference to the cache content: https://github.com/xcp-ng/xcp/issues/183

not sure if this post could help me, I have Centos8

I have found something:  the file "xe-linux-distribution" is missing in the /var/cache directory.  I have recreated it with version info in it, and this seems to resolve the issues, but when I reboot the file is not there anymore...

Hmmm... is your system fully patched with the latest updates? How about files/directory permissions?

system have been fully upgraded to latest centos 8 kernel, but about permission I don't know what to check...
