doc(XCP-ng): Fix broken link to XO doc from XO Web UI page
Some links pointed to websites that no longer exist, with no known replacement.
These links are now removed.
The other links have been fixed to point to the correct location, where possible.

Live migration **should work** from any older XenServer/XCP-ng toward the latest release. However, there are some cases where it doesn't. For example, XenServer (and XCP-ng) 7.6 has a regression that makes live migration with storage motion crash guests that are based on the "Other installation media" template when the source host has a version lower than 7.6 ([reported here to Citrix](https://bugs.xenserver.org/browse/XSO-924)). But **this bug has been fixed in latest XCP-ng 7.6 updates**.

### Backup partition restore from installer fails on UEFI hosts

Context: the installer creates a backup of the root partition when you upgrade. It also allows to restore that backup when a backup is found.

On UEFI hosts, the backup restore function of the installer fails with the following error message: `setEfiBootEntry() takes exactly 5 arguments (4 given)`. This is [a bug inherited from Citrix Hypervisor 8.1](https://bugs.xenserver.org/browse/XSO-984).

Consequences: although the root filesystem is correctly restored, the system is unbootable.
#### Dell servers do not get the best partitioning
236

237
235
Due to the presence of the diagnostic partition on Dell servers, the installer does not create all partitions, so for example there's no dedicated /var/log partition (side-effect: log rotation switches to aggressive mode, so old logs are deleted quickly, sometimes even the same day!).

The problem is that in a storage-cluster environment every time the node changes or pacemaker start /stop /restart iSCSI resources the "iSCSI SN" for a lun are new generated and differs from that before.

Xen uses the "iSCSI SN" as an identifier, so you have to ensure that "iSCSI SN" is the same on all cluster nodes.
