Kernel Update order with XEN

Kernel Update order with XEN
Tue, 04 Dec 2007 02:50:27 GMT
I see that there is a Kernel update available and was wondering what the
correct order is to update a XEN host and it's Guests?

Do I do the Guest OS's first then the Dom0?

Or Dom0 then the Guests?

Note in my case all the Guests are OpenSUSE 10.3 as well as the Dom0.

In answer to my own question - I bit the bullet and did the updates for Dom0
first which requires a reboot. Once Dom0 back up started each guest one at
a time updating them.

Seems to work OK, however new kernel does not fix bug# 348877 yet. :(

Cheers
