    @Andrew That means you likely don't have any "leaked" VBDs

    @poddingue I'm in agreement with all of this. I can clearly see the Intel card starting at slot 81 and ending at 84. Unfortunately, in XCP-ng 8.3, only 83 (the "gpu" itself) is visible as an assignable PCI pass-through device. When I pass through just slot 83, I get a dysfunctional result. Again...I'm a little out of my expertise here, but my assumption here is that in order to actually get the full GPU to work, I need to get slots 81-84 passed over to the VM. Problem...In XCP-ng 8.2, you could mask off PCI devices with the pciback.hide function: /opt/xensource/libexec/xen-cmdline --set-dom0 "xen-pciback.hide=(0000:04:01.0)(0000:00:19.0)" Or in my case: /opt/xensource/libexec/xen-cmdline --set-dom0 "xen-pciback.hide=(0000:81:00.0)(0000:82.01.0)(0000:82:02.0)(0000:83:00.0)(0000:84:00.0)" Then you would assign those same PCI devices to the guest VM. In 8.3 you do this with an xe command: xe pci-list and xe pci-disable-dom0-access uuid=<pci uuid> The bridge devices for the Intel card aren't being included in the pci-list of XCP-ng and are therefore not assignable to guests. For example, running "xe pci-list" on a host shows me this single entry relevant to the Intel card: uuid ( RO) : f3e6842b-ad1b-9e93-dbea-214dde28618a vendor-name ( RO): Intel Corporation device-name ( RO): Device e212 pci-id ( RO): 0000:83:00.0 With the new 8.3 method of assigning PCI resources to guest VM's, I don't see how I can fully pass-through the Intel GPU to a guest. I won't necessarily call this a "bug" but it is an unexpected and perhaps edge case behavior that Vates didn't expect.

    The timing evidence here looks strong to me. Your second Grafana window is doing a lot of work: linstor-satellite.service jumps to roughly 8,700 log lines in the three minutes around the panic, well above linstor-controller at 926 and xapi at 460, and the priority chart goes red at the same moment. A backup that fans out volume creates and deletes across three replicas, landing on a DRBD race, fits what you are seeing. Throttling Velero should tell you a lot. If the crashes stop with clientQPS: 3 and itemBlockWorkerCount: 1, that narrows it to concurrency rather than anything about those particular volumes. For the logs question, a xen-bugtool --yestoall bundle from a host that has panicked is usually the thing people ask for first (https://docs.xcp-ng.org/troubleshooting/log-files), since it sweeps up the kernel side alongside the storage logs you already have in Loki. I don't know DRBD internals well enough to say which trace matters most, so it might be worth a mention to @Team-Storage. They can say what they actually need rather than have you guess, and a panic that reproduces on a schedule is a good deal easier for them to chase than most.

    Merci beaucoup pour vos retours ! @nathanael-h : C'est l'étape suivante !!! J'ai découvert cluster API le mois dernier et j'ai déja testé sur d'autres plateforme ! ça déchire !!! Je ne savais pas qu'il y avait un support de XCP-ng ! Je finis ma série d'article pour une installation classique et je bascule sur cluster API ! @ataxyanetwork Merci pour ton repo. Je vais regarder ça
