I installed Xen server 6.2 and I am currently playing around with it. I managed to install 1 vm, and I have applied all hotfixes available up to the Service Pack 1. That specific patch gives me an error. The command xe patch-list shows the following:

This is the version of the installation:

LSB Version:    :core-4.0-ia32:core-4.0-noarch
Distributor ID: XenServer
Description:    XenServer release 6.2.0-70446c (xenenterprise)
Release:    6.2.0-70446c
Codename:   xenenterprise

When I run xe patch-upload file-name=XS62ESP1.xsupdate, I get the expected UUID. Then when I run xe patch-pool-apply uuid=xxxxx I receive the following error:

The patch precheck stage failed with an unknown error. See attached info for more details. patch: 0850b186-4d47-11e3-a720-001b2151a503 (XS62ESP1) info: XenServer Tools ISO must be ejected from all running VMs.

After a lot of searching I run the command xe vm-cd-eject --multiple but I receive another error:

Operation could not be performed because the drive is empty vbd: 6028ca4a-ece6-dcea-0688-0e81594738e4

There are no vms running. I have restarted the host many times.

As always any help is appreciated.

Thanks

FWIW, I deleted the one VM I had running and tried the update again to no avail. I asked for help on the Citrix forums but the solutions they gave me did not help so I performed a clean install of Xen Server 6.2 and applied the SP1 hotfix right away. That worked. From there on I could install the rest of the fixes that pertain to SP1 only.
