    Hello all, Version 9.2.445 of the XCP-ng Windows Guest Tools has been released. Download the latest release here: https://github.com/xcp-ng/win-pv-drivers/releases This release brings important bug fixes to the Windows drivers and installer. Important note for users upgrading from 9.2.350: You must first install the XenTools-fix-9.2.351.msp hotfix to upgrade to 9.2.351 before installing 9.2.445. Otherwise, upgrades from 9.2.350 will be blocked. Reboot is not required after installing the hotfix. The installer downloads include a copy of XenClean and XenBootFix. It is not necessary to run XenClean when upgrading from previous versions of the XCP-ng Windows guest tools, unless prompted by the installer. Remember to carefully read XenClean docs before use. Note: Always download the latest XenClean/XenBootFix from https://github.com/xcp-ng/win-pv-drivers/releases . You can find them in the latest release ZIP/ISO archives. Before installing Thank you for using our Windows PV tools. Please carefully read the instructions below. It is not necessary to run XenClean when upgrading from previous versions of the XCP-ng Windows guest tools, unless prompted by the installer. Not compatible with the "Manage Citrix PV drivers via Windows Update" option. You must disable this option before installing. Changes since 9.2.385 NEW: Group Policy support (see the extras/admx directory in the source code tree). Supported policies include: Hide the tray icon Disable all features that allow controlling the VM from the host Improved: Better network performance. Improved: System reliability improvements on driver upgrade failure. On an upgrade failure, the installer will remove all Xen drivers to ensure that the system will keep operating, and to allow you to safely uninstall the existing driver package. Improved: Remove obsolete Windows Update devices and don't block installation because of them. Fixed: Fix further data corruption bugs during memory snapshots and backups. This driver version significantly narrows the corruption window. However, fully fixing all known corruption issues requires further work in other XCP-ng components. Please keep an eye on the XCP-ng blog for updates. Fixed: Fix loss of VBD connection after storage migration. Fixed: Improve reliability of the clipboard service. Fixed: Improve reliability of the VIF IP configuration feature. Fixed: Reliability fixes on VMs with many vCPUs (>64). Fixed: Many other driver reliability fixes. Help / Community support If you encounter installation/uninstallation errors, please try again with one of the following commands: For installing: msiexec.exe /i XenTools-x64.msi /l*vx install.log For uninstalling: msiexec.exe /x XenTools-x64.msi /l*vx uninstall.log Please include this log along with the file C:\Windows\INF\setupapi.dev.log in your bug report. These files will help us troubleshoot any installation issues. Additionally, please report any errors or BSOD you encounter during testing of this release. Your feedback is very appreciated.

    @poddingue Yes, reads pretty much like the same error / root cause.

    @coolsport00 I believe what your looking for, is in the Groups and ACL in XOv5 that will give you that. I haven't dug into those settings specifically to say for sure you can or cant do what your asking.

    @jqueiroz said: Bom dia a todos, Estou com um problema em uma VM, ela está ligando/desligando sozinha, repetidamente. Não encontro nenhuma mensagem de erro explicando o motivo. Alguém pode me dar alguma dica sobre como solucionar isso? Uso o XCP-NG 8.0 em um cluster de dois servidores HP Proliant DL-360, com o HA-Lizard. Tudo vinha funcionando bem até alguns dias atrás, quando houve uma queda de energia no datacenter da localidade. Tenho o mesmo arranjo de VMs/servidores em mais seis localidades, nenhuma apresenta esse problema. Analisar esse comportamento instável do cluster é quase como prever resultados complexos, parecendo a análise de riscos que a malta faz ao dar palpites no https://mostbetbrasil.lat. Grato. Como o problema começou depois da queda de energia e só acontece nessa localidade, eu começaria verificando os logs do XCP-ng e do HA-Lizard para entender quem está disparando os reinícios. Pode ser alguma política de HA tentando recuperar a VM repetidamente, algum problema de armazenamento ou até inconsistência no estado do host após a interrupção. Também vale conferir o estado do pool e os logs do Xen Orchestra, se estiver usando. Se possível, desative temporariamente a automação de recuperação dessa VM, com cuidado para não comprometer a disponibilidade, e veja se ela continua reiniciando sozinha. Isso ajuda a isolar a causa.
