    @olivierlambert Yes sir, it is and I'm glad I confirmed this for myself. Thanks also for helping me understand how the VM Suspend process works. Hopefully this post helps other newbies with the same understanding in the future.

    I have a delta backup job with Full backup interval set to 7. If i look at the backup job results I get this: xoce (legion) Snapshot Start: 2025-07-25 03:02 End: 2025-07-25 03:02 Fiend NFS transfer Start: 2025-07-25 03:02 End: 2025-07-25 03:08 Duration: 6 minutes Size: 23.78 GiB Speed: 73.01 MiB/s Clean VM directory cleanVm: incorrect backup size in metadata Start: 2025-07-25 03:08 End: 2025-07-25 03:08 Start: 2025-07-25 03:02 End: 2025-07-25 03:08 Duration: 6 minutes Start: 2025-07-25 03:02 End: 2025-07-25 03:08 Duration: 6 minutes Type: full It says "full". If i go to backup -> restore, search for this vm, i see "full 2 delta 2" in "Available Backups" column. Yet if i press "restore" arrow i see that two full backups are of 2022 year and it looks dangerous. Documentation says about that setting "For example, with a value of 2, the first two backups will be a key and a delta, and the third will start a new chain with a full backup.". Yet, I see only VERY old full backups... Xen Orchestra, commit 19412 Master, commit 6277a, but it seems that this happens for a long time. Do I miss something? Do I really have fresh full backups and these a just labeled "incremental" or what? [image: 1753444452743-xoce.png]

    It's not a branch question, you need to build XO 6: yarn run turbo run build --filter @xen-orchestra/web

    @HH said in XO Commuity Edition Xen Orchestra, commit fee7b geht nicht auf Master, commit e5702: I didn't mean that I want to go to 6.0 now, but when 6.0 becomes "Stable LTS", get that automatically with your script ? Assuming there aren't any major changes to the upgrading processing using the existing script should work, but that has to be determined once a general release is created.

    Hello. @JamfoFL said in Xen Orchestra from Sources unreachable after applying XCPng Patch updates: This is very odd. When I check to see if the Orchestra status is running, everything looks OK: [image: 1752072112055-5c529c8c-8f2b-4c79-806c-daa2b8398847-image.png] This doesn't look ok. The process behind this service has actually exited. Suggest you start/restart this service and check if XO is reachable. If it's not, dive into the logs and look for clues why the process is exiting. You may want to also try manually running /etc/init.d/orchestra and see if that produces any helpful output. But when I try to run the command you sent over, I get an error message stating "Unit xo-server.service" could not be found". However, when I check in the very same folder from which I am running the command, I can see xo-server.service right there. Not taking away from the points others have made about .service files needing to be in the correct location, but in your case, worrying about the xo-server.service file is probably a dead end. It appears whoever installed XO created the systemd service as orchestra. You needn't try and "fix" the fact you don't have an xo-server.service. .joel

    Hello everyone. I tripped over this issue. If someone got another approach I would be interested. Thanks to @lsouai-vates I had a look at: https://github.com/vatesfr/xen-orchestra/blob/ab56924b1d046ccf6c09dfe7a4ab47deb5d77f4a/packages/xo-acl-resolver/index.js and https://github.com/vatesfr/xen-orchestra/blob/ab56924b1d046ccf6c09dfe7a4ab47deb5d77f4a/packages/xo-server/src/xo-mixins/acls.mjs#L150-L168 To what I understand it is not possible as a Non-Admin user to get information like pools, ... By creating a new admin user limiting the resources via ACLS with viewer right worked around this. However, granting admin rights still looks sort of strange. Just in case someone struggled as well this information might help.

    @jivanpal We do not currently have any plans to support elliptic curve keys - this is a very sensitive topic given different governmental security requirements around the world. Note that Let's Encrypt recommends a dual setup for this exact reason: "Our recommendation is to serve a dual-cert config, offering an RSA certificate by default, and a (much smaller) ECDSA certificate to those clients that indicate support." (https://letsencrypt.org/docs/integration-guide/)

    @nathanael-h yeah, the installation finished, tho as mentioned above I would prefer to assign my ips via dhcp, so it's not perfect. (mind, I'm currently using a manually deployed cluster just fine, so I'm in no rush to really figure out why the automatic ups are failing) Unrelated, are there plans to eventually allow for up/down scaling the recipe later? With the CCM, setting up vm auto scaling should be possible if the recipe supports it right?

    @kagbasi-ngc Hi, thanks for your thoughts. I get on well with Linux myself - I’m using XO from source following the documentation, and actually, Ronivay’s script, as you mentioned, makes it all even handier. Still, I can’t help but think - your average home user, a total amateur, is just going to land on the XCP-ng host homepage and click "Deploy XOA". And then they’ve no backup, outside of the trial period. But sure, if XOA is aimed squarely at business and enterprise users with paid licences, fair enough that makes perfect sense. I just feel like backup isn’t really a purely business or enterprise feature, unlike, say, proxy instances or hyper-converged storage. It's something even home users would genuinely benefit from. But as it is mentioned above, that’s just how it’s set up - and like you said yourself, everyone’s got the chance to learn something new. And sure, in the age of AI chatbots, there’s really no excuse not to manage it

    @DustinB Been using it since 2012, non-profits fell under the academic tier and it was originally by number of cpu which was 2 cpu per host, under 192G ram but again didnt include vmotion etc, just plain ole esxi why I used Veeam since it brought replication into the mix again still using them at a very low cost. They had essentials and essentials plus and the academic pricing was very low, my understanding is they would rather you use VMware vs something else. Again I have receipts going back to 2012, pretty much same price for all these years until Broadcom entered the picture. There was nothing sus about it, you had to verify your non-profit category and fit within the limts, it was pretty standard pricing for a low number of cores, I could go to CDW or any reseller and get the same pricing. Why you have so many small companies jumping ship many were using vmware essentials which was WAY cheaper then what they are doing now which the only option is Standard and it now requires min of 16 cores per host @$50/core. That is the new and wonderful world of Broadcom... Anyway, this was pretty common stuff under VMware, why so many folks were using it, even the small shops.

    @RS One option would be this, assuming in this se you want to run the job at midnight on Dec. 25: /bin/echo "/path/to/your/script.sh" | at midnight Dec 25 While cron doesn't offer a specific one-time execution, you could also do this in cron but would have to remove the entry afterwards: 0 0 25 12 * /path/to/your/script.sh Also, take a look at this option: https://www.fastcron.com/guides/one-time-cronjobs/
