    That's the flag then, not XAPI refusing. Which is the easier of the two to get out of. Nothing showed up in Advanced because XO only lights that toggle when all seven of its stop operations are blocked: clean_reboot, clean_shutdown, hard_reboot, hard_shutdown, pause, suspend and shutdown. Yours has four of them, so the toggle already reads as off and there's nothing to switch off. Turning it on and then straight back off does clear them, though. I tried that on a test VM here, on XO 5.205.2. The first click set all seven, the second removed all seven, and suspend was back in allowed-operations. Your destroy entry is the separate "Protect from accidental deletion" toggle just above it, and that one will show as on. Turning the shutdown one on and off leaves it alone, so keep it if you want it. If you'd rather not touch the others, this removes just the one key: xe vm-param-remove uuid=<vm-uuid> param-name=blocked-operations param-key=suspend I ran that one too, on 8.3, and suspend came back in allowed-operations straight away with the VM still running. What I can't tell you is what set that particular combination on your VM in the first place. Does it ring a bell?

    @msupport We're testing Veeam now. From what I read, I thought CBT was supposed to be disabled in XCP as Veeam uses it's own CBT engine, is that not correct? Also, is it normal for the SR to show a bunch of veeamsnap files for all the VDI's it backed up? I was under the impression Veeam was supposed to remove those when the backup was complete, but perhaps one of them needs to stay for tracking?

    Pour l'ISO montée deux fois : My bad, j'ai ajouter un truc en trop sur mon précédent fix. Une PR est en cours pour corriger ça. Pour le problème principal : J'ai identifié la cause, mais je n'ai pas encore de solution. Sans les drivers Xen (non initialisés avant l'installation), une VM est limitée à 4 périphériques. La séquence de boot ne peut donc pas détecter le second disque contenant le fichier Kickstart (ks). Côté Packer, on semble être bloqués par cette contrainte XCP-ng. Les seules alternatives actuelles seraient de se limiter à : 2 disques + 2 CD ou 3 disques + 1 CD + HTTP (Note : L'installation manuelle fonctionne car l'installateur démarre directement, avec le driver xen_blkfront, alors qu'avec Packer, l'injection de notre fichier interrompt le flux de démarrage classique). Je vais fouiller encore un peu, mais sans certitude d'un contournement possible. (et je regarde pour ajouter le CDlabel)
