    Hi @dvdwx, RBAC is available only at the REST API level, not through the XO6 UI. UI compatibility with RBAC is currently under development. For the topology, this is something that has been here for a long time, so I may be wrong since I don't have the full history. However, if I look at the code, creating the topology selector requires knowing how many CPUs are available in the pool. Since a self-service user doesn't have visibility into the pool, they can't access this kind of information.

    Is a centralized XOA server "managing" two remote Proxy-fronted XCP clusters supported with the SDN Controller Plugin? We are looking to deploy an architecture similar to this blog post from 2022: https://xen-orchestra.com/blog/xo-proxy-a-concrete-guide/

    @pedro_udifar Hi, This is a b2 side error. It could be just a transient error, did you try to restart the backup?

    Hello I'm pulling stats for all VMs to understand CPU usage. We're a bit behind the curve in terms of XO versions, but these questions hopefully are still relevant. If using a granularity of days, the interval is set to 86400 (understandably) but the endTimestamp varies. Running this on June 9th @ ~1740 we get timestamps for both Mon Jun 8 01:00:00 AM BST 2026 and Tues Jun 9 01:00:00 AM BST 2026. Does this average across the day? Why is the timestamp 0100? Why would there be different timestamps between VMs (all are running) and does that mean that the figures are misaligned in the results? These are retrieved via curl and a bash script, a bit hacky, but for clarity the request is: ++ curl -X GET -s -H accept:application/json -b authenticationToken=[[REDACTED]] -o [[REDACTED]] 'https://[[REDACTED]]/rest/v0/vms/[[REDACTED]]/stats?granularity=days' Really keen to know if we can control the start and endtime, as well as provide a manual interval, as well as the aggregation strategy (min, max, average). Are any of these possible? Lastly, is cpuUsage the percentage as per the dashboard, but averaged over all CPUs? Thanks so much in advance. James

    The Kubernetes CSI driver for Xen Orchestra just hit v0.4.0, and we want it on more real clusters before it reaches a stable release candidate. If you run Kubernetes on XCP-ng VMs, this is a good time to give it a proper workout. What's new in v0.4.0: Local-storage support Automatic pool-discovery fallback Kubernetes metadata now lives in Xen Orchestra VDI tags instead of the deprecated other_config. That change also drops the old requirement for Xen Orchestra 6.4 or newer, so the driver runs on more deployments now. ️ Read this before you upgrade. v0.4.0 is a breaking change. The Kubernetes metadata moved from other_config to VDI tags, so you must migrate before upgrading from v0.3.0. Do not upgrade in place: follow the v0.3.0 to v0.4.0 migration guide in the release notes, then move to v0.4.0. What helps us most is hearing how it behaves on your own setup: what works, what breaks, which storage backend you use, and which flavour of Kubernetes you run (k3s, full k8s, or something else). Edge cases on real clusters are the ones we don't see in our own testing. Where to report: start right here in this thread. It keeps everything visible to the community and lets others on the same setup jump in. If something turns out to be a reproducible bug, we'll move it to a GitHub issue on the repo so the team can track it to a fix. Release notes and migration guide: https://github.com/vatesfr/xenorchestra-csi-driver/releases/tag/v0.4.0

    @DukeVenator I suppose you've done that, but just in case I'lll ask: have you issued systemctl restart xo-server.service ? Firewall rules may need modyfying. What is the output of ufw status verbose ?

    @Danp No, I haven't as I never use non-LTS servers from Ubuntu, and most software and guides asks for LTS. I might test it later with 19.04 but my posting here was more for the sake of others as I imagine that I'm not the only one that has experienced this on Ubuntu so when I figured out that it works in Debian I figured others could get some help too. It might also point the developers in the right direction if they wish to look into this, I don't know how many users there are that have got this problem but at least there are some of us so it might be something to look at if not at least there is a posted alternative. Most would not change OS if all guides tell them that Ubuntu works so this was more meant as a PSA if nothing else.

    It's Javascript, so there's no really mandatory tools: Any text editor supporting editor config for basic rules formatting is a good start A GitHub account Same recommendation for the dev env than running XO from the sources: NodeJS 8 and yarn That's pretty much it.

    @cg it works on restored VMs from pre-fix backups. I haven't tested post fix backups yet. However, it also works on newly installed VMs.

    Hi! The new standard way to import is here: https://xen-orchestra.com/#!/xoa Let me know if you have any issue. It's still in beta yet, and we got one small issue to fix (it won't fetch the XO username/password, so it's still admin@admin.net / admin)

    Technically everything is possible (even adding disk) but not with the XOSAN UI. If you want more flexibility, I suggest you wait for XOSANv2.

    That's normal. If you boot the replicated VMs, then blocks will be changed. It mean no further delta replication will work on this VM. Force boot it if you lost the original VM and you don't care about delta toward the copy anymore. If you just want to test the VM without doing a new full (breaking the delta chain), boot with a copy. I think I explained that in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FfUqIwT8KzI That's a display glitch.
