Since the Xen Orchestra 5.105 release (march 2025), rolling pool updates (RPU) support XOSTOR.
The XCP-ng documentation (Management and Backup → Updates) is updated accordingly, to reflect the announcement in the XO 5.105 release blog post.

Since XOSTOR is not yet officially supported on 8.3, there's no hurry for merging this PR I think. Otherwise it could let people thing that it is supported.


**XCP-ng 8.3**

Starting with XCP-ng 8.3, Rolling Pool Updates (RPUs) now handle pools that utilize XOSTOR. If there is no LINSTOR Storage Repository (SR), the RPU proceeds as usual. However, if a LINSTOR SR is present, the update process includes additional steps to ensure compatibility before performing the standard rolling update.

I think this part should be moved before the warning scope. I don't see a good reason to leave this information in a warning scope when it indicates normal operation of the RPU with LINSTOR in 8.3 and higher.
