    hello running xcp-ng version 8.2.1 build date 2025-05-07 restart of node has been done netdata-ui version 1.19 release 6.xcpng8.2 from xcp-ng-updates repo netdata version1.44.3 release 6.xcpng8.2 from xcp-ng-updates repo confirmed following also installed xen-dom0-libs-devel yajl-devel xen-devel i have removed and reinstalled netdata-ui as well this was working fine before but sometime in the last few months , maybe when netdata updated to the versions above and the interface all changed, VM's are no longer visible in netdata [image: 1747811341191-c0b11d3e-0a0f-41dc-b122-4f1e769a92fe-image.png] use to be a giant list of VMs here, this is happening on all my xcp-ng servers, not just the one. they are all at the above mentioned xcp-ng version and netdata version. anyone else experiencing this? have any suggestions on whats going on, why the VM's are not showing up in netdata anymore on any of my hosts?

    @vmpr Not much, this is a system issue which means that it's either due to your NFS server or to the connection between your XO and the NFS server. First, try to unmount the share and restart xo-server, if it keeps happening, restart the whole machine on which XO is. If that does not help, you should mount the share manually and do some tests directly on it.

    Most users are relying NFS shares. However, we are open to build something for tapes. The problem is: we have no knowledge on that technology nor have any tape system in our lab. If there's enough traction for this, or even sponsored dev to do it, we'll be happy to work on that!

    @olivierlambert XO does not test the full VHD structure because that would be too long, but does check both the begining and the end of the file (and all other VHDs in the chain) before each backup to make sure the files were not truncated. For full backup we are using a simple heuristic to attempt to validate XVA files, but it's very basic and unfortunately it does not applies to compressed files.

    For the installation of the correct node version for some major Linux distributions please follow the installation instructions in this readme: https://github.com/nodesource/distributions/blob/master/README.md The Ubuntu section worked for me.

    @julien-f I believe that you already updated the docs, but that occurred after the postings above. You may want to review the section discussing forever-service to be sure it doesn't need modified.

    @s-pam i'd say use them, always use the. Only a few KB of space and could be every handy. We have 3 servers in the pool so overlooked requirement for full pool recovery. (p.s we didn't fail, it's during DR testing it was flagged) we had the backups on already and if this had been a real issue, would have saved a lot of bacon!! turn it on ! (and check you can get it without a running XOA for quicker restore in full meltdown.)

    This section has nothing to do with XOA IP address, but useful to restrict some VMs to some IP address. I agree it's unclear. But as I said, for now, there's 0 GUI to configure the system per se. That's why I said it could be an addition sure, but there's nothing yet, so adding it will take some time or efforts, and it's not a priority as we speak (our backlog is already pretty big). But again, as an Open Source project, we are welcoming contributions!

    Questions: Placing a new VM in a suitable pool/How is a host chosen ?

    To pick a pool: it's up to you to decide, depending on available pool storage capacity, speed. Same for compute and network. It's very very specific to your own needs, there's no universal rules. Host selection for a VM: it's not decided by XO but by XAPI (except if you specifically ask to boot on a host). IIRC, it's a mix of load and memory available, but if you want to dig further, it should be written in the XAPI code somewhere

    @indyj FYI when I ran this test again it worked. this time: I ran it as a "Delta" backup. And then rescanned the removable media. I was then able to restore an individual file from the backup on USB media.

    @garrya Hi, it sounds like you've set up VLAN interfaces correctly on the XCP-ng side, but the switch they are connected to also needs to be aware of VLAN tags to pass them, or else it will only pass untagged traffic as you noticed. You'll need a smart/managed switch with VLAN capability to do so

    We are investigating an elegant solution called RunX. Basically, it might be able to transparently any standard "container stack" (Docker and/or k8s). See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9m95hojMtsU There's some work to adapt that to XAPI, but it might be doable. This means XCP-ng could be "container" native while having very good level of isolation with very small VMs (only few MiB overhead).

    This is simple enough so we'll implement it in XO 5. Thanks for the feedback!
