Xenserver 6.2 SP1 Hotfix 4
Hi Guys,
I've recently upgraded to XenServer 6.2 with CS 4.3.
I've also applied XenServer 6.2 SP1. Do I need to apply Hotfix 4 as well?
I read that it has some enhancements for CS built into the hotfix, but the release notes also state that I need to set up a dedicated SR for High Availability, which seems a bit odd.
Do I need the hotfix? If so, do I really need to set up a dedicated HA SR?
Cheers
Len

Len,
That release note was written from the perspective of a XenServer feature set which includes an HA capability. CloudStack doesn't use the native XenServer HA capability, and if you're using CloudStack you shouldn't enable the native XenServer HA environment lest it conflicts with the CloudStack HA service offering. Net of this, shared storage is required for native XenServer HA, but CloudStack has its own method.

6.2 SP1 rolls up all previous hotfixes, plus adds a few of its own. I'd expect if you attempted to install HF004, that it would error out with a message about being already applied.
