    @olivierlambert Hi! No, that is not the case. All servers are in the same rack. Connected to the same switch. Same network (VLAN, IP Range). XOA runs on the master server. No stats for that server. But stats for another server are ok (just one), all the others are not working. C

    @tmk said in Cloudbase-init on Windows: @jkatz I ran into the same issue when trying to configure a network adapter with cloudbase-init. The documentation says that the MAC address value is optional but in reality it is required. In my case I want Xen Orchestra to choose a unique MAC during deployment, and I since I am deploying from a template, the NIC name is a known value. The fix that ended up working for me was to modify the networkconfig.py file in cloudbase-init so that the NIC name is required and the MAC address is optional. I ended up making some additional changes to allow for the network-config v2 format along with the existing v1 support and some additional logic to aid in setting the dns search domains (I can't recall if this was originally supported or not but I had issues getting it to work with the original networkconfig.py file) This file needs to replace the existing one that is installed in the C:\Program Files\Cloudbase Solutions\Cloudbase-Init\Python\Lib\site-packages\cloudbaseinit\plugins\common\ directory. To replace it you should make sure that the cloudbase-init service is stopped, then replace the file. Once this file is replaced, delete the pycache folder in the same parent folder as networkconfig.py - this will ensure that python recompiles this file on service start. Start the cloudbase-init service and confirm that you see a new pycache get created. I'm not a python programmer by trade so others may be able to point out areas for improvement but this ended up working for me and I wanted to share in case it could help others needing to deploy new servers without manually specifying a new MAC address. Below is an example network-config v2 format that works with the updated file. version: 2 ethernets: Ethernet 2: dhcp4: false addresses: - 10.20.30.10/24 nameservers: addresses: - 10.20.5.12 - 10.20.5.13 - 10.20.5.14 search: - intranet.domain.org - domain.org - public-domain.org routes: - to: default via: 10.20.30.1 Updated networkconfig.py file: networkconfig.py.txt Thank you for posting! I followed your directions verbatim and I'm still having trouble getting the network config to take. Does it work with Windows Server 2025?

    @manilx I have proposed to the IaC team of Vates, a MCP Server for Vates VMS. Which can be used by GitHub Copilot or similar, if used when doing IaC etc.

    @BenjiReis I tried to fill in the IP address with brackets, but then the discovery of the NFS shares fails. With regular SRs, it works fine without using brackets.

    In fact it's already possible In your replication job: Edit the schedule, check "Health check" box. Target the same SR than your VM are replicated too And voila!

    @stormi So I looked into the code of the ISOSR and there is a parameter for the version in the device-config. The parameter is vers but it can only be V1 or V3. And if it can't connect with V3, it will also try with V1.

    Hello @Andrew, thanks for your question! First off, I haven't tested Deno or Node with Xen-Orchestra yet. Changing the Node version can sometimes introduce bugs—some of which may be subtle. For that reason, I’d prefer not to venture into this unless it truly proves to be worth the effort. Secondly, in my experience, benchmarks don’t always translate into meaningful results in complex applications. That said, we are keeping an eye on alternative engines, both in terms of performance and the new features they offer. If we determine that the benefits are significant, we’d definitely consider migrating. Additionally, if any users want to experiment with Deno or Bun, they’re welcome to start dedicated threads on the forum to collaborate. We’d be happy to review and merge compatibility PRs as long as they don’t break Node and aren’t overly complex.

    @Danp So I had a problem with ldap, I read older article that mentioned doing this sudo npm install --global xo-server-auth-ldap which coincidently fixed ldap but that is when I noticed sync option were gone. This is just a POC and has noting running, so I will destroy and build new xoa. Thanks for help.

    @tuxpowered said in Rolling Pool Update - host took too long to restart: When the first note reboots (the master), I can see that the system is back up in 5-8 min. If I go in to XO > Settings > Servers and click the Enable/Disable status button to reconnect it pops right up. Again, does not resume migrating the other nodes. That is what I am seeing also, logged here https://xcp-ng.org/forum/topic/9683/rolling-pool-update-incomplete

    The easiest way to guarantee it is to depend on a local resource (local SR or ISO).

    If you proxy (or reverse proxy) any stuff, yes, you need to have a fixed address for the proxy.

    Yes, that's the issue, the max vCPU in Advanced tab. It's probably at 42 while you only have 32 physical CPUs. Therefore, the VM won't boot. See an example screenshot: [image: 1726217639918-8728f260-893b-4601-b8b2-43b39b9d6806-image.png]

    Hi, We offer air gap services to get you pre-bound XOA without the need for any Internet connection Otherwise, the workflow you used works too (configure XOA with a connected env and then export it). See https://xen-orchestra.com/docs/airgap.html for more details. Also, you can use our airgap deploy script in here: https://xen-orchestra.com/blog/xen-orchestra-5-95/#️-air-gap-features
