@MajorP93 that’s fine - I never use ballooning anyway so I guess I am covered good

@damjank If possible, consider trying the Rust-based Xen guest agent: Rust guest tools 0.4.0

Download and installation:

curl https://gitlab.com/xen-project/xen-guest-agent/-/jobs/6041686376/artifacts/raw/RPMS/x86_64/xen-guest-agent-0.4.0-0.fc37.x86_64.rpm -O

rpm -i xen-guest-agent-0.4.0-0.fc37.x86_64.rpm

systemctl enable xen-guest-agent.service --now

oh my God you saved me! it worked 1-2-3, like a charm! I can see all info, even got little suse icon thank you!
Just out of curiosity - are these stable enough for prod deploy (i know i know) but... so far no problems...
Thank you again!

@olivierlambert @pdonias is there any option to also add openSUSE MicroOS? It is also missing an icon...
Details are here:

xe vm-param-list uuid=c5b75080-0689-6e5b-820f-e66b77149aff | grep distro
                            os-version (MRO): name: openSUSE MicroOS; uname: 6.2.6-1-default; distro: opensuse-microos; major: 20230319; minor: unknown

I used ./install.sh -d sles -m 15 to install tools...

Thank you!

@AtaxyaNetwork no error but also no xe-linux-distribution service installed or available...

Hello XCPers!

So for my next project I am deploying mid sized XCP cluster (ofc.). The main distro of usage was chosen openSUSE. Since Leap 15 is no more, the switch to Leap 16 was made. Naturally we got issue upon installation of xe-utils from ISO that we have unsupported version. I tried to use -d sles -m 16 - did not work, tried with -m 15 which installed ofc but it is not working. I tried also to install native xen tools that also, obv., did not work.

Now question is - how to get that working? It is imperative that xe tools work as there are just too many losses without them. Am I missing anything with install, should I use any other approach? Any input would be appreciated thank you!

Best regards!

@ryan0413 no, nothing.. I have abandoned this

@olivierlambert then I will make this happen today and report back. I will check for a trial but I do believe it is over (for my address),

@olivierlambert I think I cannot switch XO just like that. I will try to get some demo XCP-ng to get some testing done and try to reproduce the error.
But for the sake of discussion - is LVM supported (in either version) for a file-level restore?

@olivierlambert XO from sources

Hello,

I enabled Delta backups for some VMs, mainly, where I predict I would need file-level restore. The backup is working, I can use functionality to the point, I start to select files to restore, where I can select none, there is a triangle next to the "/" - I figured out, I think that this is due to that some of the servers are set up to use LVM. Is the LVM file level restore not supported or must I set something else?
If this functionality is used and it is very interesting to us, should we switch to a simple layout and ditch LVM?

Here is some tech info:
