Thanks sergey, I will try this fix tomorrow.

Actually, i don't have any direct link.
XS61E010 hotfix contain just updated XS-Tools.ISO, so you need a bit
tricky way to use it.
There stated some direction how to get content of xsupdate file
http://5407.selcdn.ru/xen/instruction.html
Finally, you have to install xen tools from ISO from decripted hotfix
to VM under the question and check that everything works fine.

Is there any direct download link to that xs-tools.iso or the pv
driver .exe file? I'm still unable to apply the XS61E010 hotfix.
This is the last try before I switch back to XCP 1.1, because I
already compiled i350's driver for it.

No, they dos not.
Problem with various Windows VMs exactly in */_"xenlegacy.exe"
signed by Citrix Systems Inc. at 24 November 2012_/*
Just to check issue reduce number of vCPU to 1 in mentioned VM
and try copy process again. Everything should work fine... and
slow...
So, you have to get xen-tools from XS61E010 hotfix. It is
different version - just renamed XS 60Exx hotfix.

Quote from CTX135009:
How Can I Check Whether My VM is Running Legacy or
Standard Tools?
To check what Tools a Windows VM is running, click
the*Start*button, then*Control Panel*, then (depending on the
version of Windows)*Add/Remove Programs*, or*Programs and
Features*, or*Uninstall a Program*. If "Citrix Tools for
Virtual machines" is listed the Legacy Tools are installed.
If "Windows Driver Package Citrix Systems Inc. (xenbus)
System" is listed then the Standard Tools are installed.
I already use "Citrix Tools for Virtual Machines" for my
W2K3R2 VM which is XS61 Legacy Tools. But still hang when I
try to copy very big files (>5GB).
I could not manage to apply XS61E010 patch. So I use
"xenlegacy.exe" signed by Citrix Systems Inc. at 24 November
2012. I took that file from XCP 1.6 iso, folder client_install.
Is it the same file?
I think I'm going back to XCP 1.1 until XCP 2.0 is out. It's
much easier to prepare i350 driver compilation then patching
XCP 1.6 VM.

AFAIK, You can't install XS61E009 Update on to XCP 1.6. I've
already asked here about the way to implement binary update
from Citrix to XCP, but no luck.
So you just would install lecacy xen-tools (or XS61E010) to
your Windows system to avoid known bugs in some configuration.

Hi,
I tried to digest the posts in the thread and looked
into this Citrix's KB:
http://support.citrix.com/article/CTX135099
http://support.citrix.com/article/CTX136252
http://support.citrix.com/article/CTX136253
Let me clarify, I must doing these steps:
- install XCP 1.6 from the beginning
- install hotfix XS61E009 and hotfix XS61E010, then I
have two version of xs-tools iso in my host (standard
and legacy)
- import W2K3R2 VM
- make sure there is no XCP 1.1 Standard Tools or XCP
1.6 Standard Tools in it
- install XS61E010 Legacy Tools into W2K3R2 VM
- and I have to do this on each W2K3R2 VM
I would try first.
regards,
Agi

Hi Agi,
Thanks for reply... I will read it first.
Do you mean p2v drivers is in xs-tools.iso?
fyi, all of my W2K3 VMs use 2-4 VCPUs.
Yes that's it, you should re-install the pv driver
with a recent enough build of xs-tools.iso.
I have a dozen win2k3 running fine on XCP 1.6, so
"it should work"(tm) for you too! In the citrix
thread I sent you, you can find the exact build that
address this issue.
The recompilation of a driver is not very hard
either once you got used to it, but it would be a
pity not to get on with XCP1.6, the Citrix team did
a tremendous work on this release.
Cheers,
Denis

Hi Agi,
> I have a new server with onboard Intel
i350 Gigabit Ethernet, but XCP
1.1 did not detect that card. Previously
I install XCP 1.6 on it, but my
VM (Windows) always hang randomly and
hard to reboot/shutdown via
XenCenter, so I want to use XCP 1.1 to
that server. How to compile
igb-4.1.2.tar.gz source code for XCP 1.1?
I had a issue recently with a win2k WM
crashing after upgrade to
XCP1.6. There has been an issue with win2k
win2k3 vms that is
explained in the post below (long post).
http://forums.citrix.com/thread.jspa?threadID=314477&start=105&tstart=0
Summary :
* For win2k3 and above vms, upgrade p2v drivers.
* For win2k vms, short workaround is to have
only one vcpus in the VM.
(indeed, the new driver does not want to
install on win2k per
citrix/windows EOL policy). If you definitly
need more than one vcpus
in your win2k vm, you'll have to tweak a
little more I guess.
If you still want to recompile, you have to
install kernel headers
from source iso, enable centos repo, install
build tools and compile
your driver. But I'd recommend to give one
more try to XCP 1.6.
Cheers,
Denis
