    • RE: New UEFI implementation for VMs

      Initial brief test seems ok 👍
      Will see if i can do more of the tests later...

      Updated from 8.1 via yum which caused windows 10 & windows 2019 server to hang on the tiano logo.
      Interestingly a debian 10 uefi vm worked fine...

      After the update to uefistored both windows VMs started in recovery and did whatever it is windows does besides spin dots on your screen 🤔
      After a reboot both Windows 10 2004 and windows 2019 server booted just fine 👍

    • RE: Xen 4.17 on XCP-ng 8.3!

      Running stable as always for a couple of days so far 👍 👏 - homelab with 10-15 vms.

      Is there anything in particular we should be testing in order to help test 4.17?

    • RE: Coral TPU PCI Passthrough

      @andSmv
      Damn - i was quick and have a coral m2 A+E coming in a few days 😆

      It's just for fun/learning so as long as it doesn't break my homelab too much i will be willing to test so we might get it included 👍
      Already using the 4.17 test version without a hitch since it came out.

    • RE: Hailo-8L AI accellerator PCI passthrough causes xcp-ng hypervisor infinite boot-loop

      @olivierlambert said in Hailo-8L AI accellerator PCI passthrough causes xcp-ng hypervisor infinite boot-loop:

      Hmm could the module causing the crash if the device isn't accessible? 🤔

      A quick google found this thread on a proxmox forum - according to that user it causes a hotplug event when it initializes.
      https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/hailo-8-ai-m-2-card-crashes-server-when-using-passthrough.166428/

      Seems these AI cards are a bit of a pain - remembering the continuing issue with Google Coral pcie cards

    • RE: Coral TPU PCI Passthrough

      @Niall-Con

      Nope - i tested recently with the latest updates and the vm still crashes...

      There were some patches for Xen and i tested the one @andSmv posted without any change.
      There looked to be quite a few patches around similar issues on upstream Xen but i have no idea if any of them were relevant.

      Maybe we will see improvement once Xcp-ng 9 comes about with a more recent version?

    • RE: Default templates

      @irtaza9

      Maybe the docs would give some hints? 🙂
      https://docs.xcp-ng.org/guides/create-use-custom-xcpng-ubuntu-templates/

      IIRC the most challenging part is Cloud init...

    • RE: CPU C-states

      @FrankAtHome
      I looked in to this as well a while back and the conclusion i came to, is that the newer AMD power management functions are not supported properly in the old kernel used by XCP-NG (And maybe xen?).
      A lot of work seems to have been done in the 6.x kernel series on this.

      I get the same on my 7900 - only C0 and C1 😬
      I tried booting it on a Ubuntu 24.04 live cd and power consumption was easily 15% lower at idle.

    • RE: Xen Orchestra on publicly accessible VM

      @fred974 said in Xen Orchestra on publicly accessible VM:

      Thank you all. I could set Xen Orchestra vi vpn tunnel, you all righ so I'll do that. But how do I stop access to the web interface http://serverip ?

      Run a VM with a firewall (pfSense, Vyos, OpnSense etc.) and put the public interface as WAN in the VM and control vpn access there?

    • RE: Google Coral TPU PCIe Passthrough Woes

      @Teddy-Astie

      I think that is the patch i tested here:
      https://xcp-ng.org/forum/topic/7066/coral-tpu-pci-passthrough/26?_=1730909872550

      And no it made no difference...
      I don't know if @andSmv has any more info? - ref. the thread above.

      There seems to be a lot of work in the Xen repo on MSI stuff but i could not figure out what would be relevant for the Coral.

    • RE: XCP-ng 8.3 betas and RCs feedback 🚀

      @stormi said in XCP-ng 8.3 betas and RCs feedback 🚀:

      Optional package

      • kernel-alt-4.19.316+1-2.xcpng8.3: Enable CONFIG_X86_AMD_PLATFORM_DEVICE in kernel config

      I see some mentions of this option in relation to fan speeds.

      But what is the status on AMD support in general?
      I have a recent AMD platform, and from what i can see a lot has been added for AMD support in the past few kernel versions.
      Particularly in relation to power management.

      I did a purely unscientific test and booted a ubuntu 24.04 live cd on my XCP-NG server, and the power consumption was 10-15% lower at similar load level, compared to XCP-NG.

      Is the hardware support for e.g. power management handled by the kernel in dom0 or by Xen?

      What are the current plans for a more recent kernel for dom0 - i have not seen anything on kernel version plans for a long time?

      Keep up the good work 👍 😁

    • RE: EOL: XCP-ng Center has come to an end (New Maintainer!)

      @manilx said in EOL: XCP-ng Center has come to an end (New Maintainer!):

      @redakula Hi,
      This build stopped working with the latest beta 8.3 updates (last or last couple).
      Worked before.

      I just tested and it connects just fine for me to a fully up to date 8.3 install...

      @manilx
      I don't really use xcp-ng center so i don't know how stable but the build from january connects to 8.3 and seems to work?
