      So what you're saying is.... I should definately upgrade a node to 6.5!? lol.

      next weekend I'm just going to schedule downtime and upgrade this one node to XenServer 6.1 (From 6.0)

      Just read more information on site and realized that the LACP bond is not 100% true and working as was not fully supported until 6.1

      I had previous nodes running 6.1 and those appeared to have less 'issues' and also seemed faster.

      6.2 was the first LF version, I think. You need to update to atleast that. If not go the entire way to 6.5 just make sure you have decent backups.

        I'll be cautious route and upgrade to 6.1 first. and All is well, I'll proceed to 6.2. Essentially incremental updates

          You'll need to be on 6.2 before you can upgrade to 6.5 anyway so that is a good idea. Speaking of... I really need to update to 6.5...

            XS was pretty crap in the Citrix era.

                      Really? More of us from Upstate NY than any other region here in the community. Where are you normally based and where in Upstate are you headed?

                      This community's annual conference is being held in Rochester in September!!

                        I grew up in Syracuse area (well, outside in small community). Flying into Rochester (cheapest this year) and then driving back towards Syracuse.

                          I used to be on the board for the oversight of IT and CS programs at OCC in Syracuse. My wife and I met when we both lived in Ithaca.
