The third and final set of maintenance work was completed
successfully.
There was one VPS which didn't boot under pvgrub and had to be
reverted back to pygrub. This time it was Debian jessie, which is
the first of those I had seen, but again the common patter was a
legacy-GRUB config in /boot/grub/grub.conf.
I have opened support tickets with every one of the customers (that
I know of) that had to be reverted back to pygrub, so we can work
out how to get them onto pvgrub. It will probably be as simple as
installing grub2.
All of the reboots for XSA-212 are done with now and the advisory
comes out of embargo at 2017-04-04 12:00Z, so if you are interested
in the details you will find them at
http://xenbits.xen.org/xsa/
after that time.
Thanks for your patience through this work, especially to the small
number of customers who unexpectedly had issues with the
pygrub→pvgrub migration.
Cheers,
Andy
