All,

I have upgraded xen-44 from Xen-4.4.3 to Xen-4.4.4 (and placed the resulting RPMs from xen-4.4.4-2.el6.src.rpm into virt6-xen-44-testing). These RPMs have all the latest updates that were rolled into the xen-4.4.3-14.el6.src.rpm packages (through XSA-172 updates).

Here is how to test:

1. If you want this box to always have ‘testing’ enabled for xen-44 .. do this:
Edit /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Xen-44.repo and set ‘Enabled=1’ in the
[CentOS-virt-xen-44-testing] and then do:

yum update

(In this case, the testing repo remains enabled)

2. If you would rather not turn on testing permanently, but just want to test these updates (and leave only the main repo enabled by default), then do this:

yum –enablerepo CentOS-virt-xen-44-testing update

==============

The above assumes you have followed George’s instructions and have removed CentOS-release-xen and CentOS-rtelease-xen-46 and have installed CentOS-release-xen-44 to stay on the Xen-4.4 branch, and have not upgraded to Xen-4.6.

Thanks, Johnny Hughes
