    I finally got access to a machine with Intel Arc machine. There are issues around hvm-pirq, hence hvm-pirq=0 is required (see https://docs.xcp-ng.org/troubleshooting/common-problems/#pci-passthrough-error-unsupported-msi-delivery-mode-7). For some reason, Fedora Workstation has a issue with this GPU (a Fedora bug I guess), but CachyOS (desktop iso) works fine. Ran a clpeak bench, and performance looks normal for this class of GPU. Host-device transfer is a bit slower than "theorical", but definetely not PCIe 1x1 and more PCIe 3x8-ish (matching reality as it's plugged as PCIe 3.0). in-VM inxi -CGM Machine: Type: Xen System: Xen product: HVM domU v: 4.17 serial: 2c66cb09-57db-340c-ad8e-f505eb25ca3e Mobo: N/A model: N/A serial: N/A Firmware: UEFI vendor: Xen v: 4.17 date: 10/06/2026 CPU: Info: 6x 1-core model: Intel Xeon Silver 4112 bits: 64 type: SMP cache: L2: 6x 1024 KiB (6 MiB) Speed (MHz): avg: 2594 min/max: N/A cores: 1: 2594 2: 2594 3: 2594 4: 2594 5: 2594 6: 2594 Graphics: Device-1: driver: bochs-drm v: N/A Device-2: Intel Battlemage G21 [Arc Pro B50] driver: xe v: kernel Display: unspecified server: Xwayland v: 24.1.13 driver: gpu: bochs-drm tty: 212x48 API: EGL v: 1.5 drivers: iris,swrast platforms: gbm,surfaceless,device API: OpenGL v: 4.6 vendor: mesa v: 26.1.6-arch3.1 note: console (EGL sourced) renderer: Mesa Intel Arc Pro B50 Graphics (BMG G21), llvmpipe (LLVM 22.1.8 256 bits) API: Vulkan v: 1.4.357 drivers: intel surfaces: N/A Info: Tools: api: clinfo, eglinfo, glxinfo, vulkaninfo de: kscreen-console,kscreen-doctor gpu: gputop, intel_gpu_top, lsgpu, nvidia-smi wl: wayland-info x11: xdpyinfo, xprop, xrandr Raw numbers Backend: Vulkan Device 0: Intel(R) Arc(tm) Pro B50 Graphics (BMG G21) Driver version : 26.2.4 API version : 1.4.354 VRAM : 16048 MB Single-precision compute float : 9.47 TFLOPS float2 : 9.48 TFLOPS float4 : 9.52 TFLOPS Half-precision compute fp16xfp16+fp16 half : 18.3 TFLOPS half2 : 18.8 TFLOPS half4 : 19.1 TFLOPS Double-precision compute double : 650 GFLOPS double2 : 647 GFLOPS double4 : 640 GFLOPS Mixed-precision compute fp16xfp16+fp32 mp : 9.31 TFLOPS mp2 : 9.32 TFLOPS mp4 : 9.42 TFLOPS BF16 compute bf16xbf16+fp32 bf16 : 9.17 TFLOPS bf16_2 : 9.30 TFLOPS bf16_4 : 9.28 TFLOPS Integer compute int32 int : 1.81 TOPS int2 : 1.88 TOPS int4 : 1.82 TOPS INT8 dot-product compute int8_dp : 28.0 TOPS int8_dp2 : 26.3 TOPS int8_dp4 : 27.1 TOPS Cooperative matrix fp16 : 67.3 TFLOPS fp16 f16acc : 68.9 TFLOPS bf16 : 68.9 TFLOPS int8 : 141 TOPS Global memory bandwidth float : 196 GB/s float2 : 206 GB/s float4 : 212 GB/s Local memory bandwidth float : 2.55 TB/s float2 : 3.65 TB/s float4 : 4.23 TB/s Image memory bandwidth float4 : 213 GB/s Transfer bandwidth h2d : 4.81 GB/s d2h : 5.48 GB/s Kernel launch latency dispatch : 48.7 us roundtrip : 113 us Real performance is much higher than the "displayed" Speed 2.5GT/s, Width x1.

    @coolsport00 said: @julienxovates - playing around some more in XO6. I have quite a list I want to submit for feature enhancements (needs, really). One you all already have is being able to open a VM Console in another Tab. I attempted to but it keeps spinning & Console never displays: [image: image.jpeg] I'm using Brave browser. Sometimes this particular browser can cause issues loading pages because of its security. But, I also tried Chrome and same behavior. Thoughts? @acebmxer @coolsport00 Just like the modern Microsoft Edge (Chromium based), it’s the same for the Brave browser. These share the same upstream Chromium browser codebase just like Google Chrome browser. If there’s a bug or issue in Chromium then they, can potentially all share it. That is unless one of the browser developers has fixed it in their one, but not upstreamed the fix yet, or by way of implementing (development) of the browser unaffected!

    @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.
