    I am running NVIDIA P40s on a DELL R720/R730 and a NVIDIA A2000 12GB on a DELL Optiplex 9010 in my playlab. Getting the GPUs to be accessible for VMs was quite easy: shutdown the XCP-ng host, install the GPUs, start the host again, activate the GPU in the advanced settings of the host in the PCI Devices section (“Passthrough enabled”). The host will restart at this point after displaying a warning. That's it – the GPU can now be assigned to a VM in the VMs advanced settings. I do use the GPUs for AI workloads under Debian though, so your use case might vary.

    @bleader Hopefully the palm print on my forehead isn't visible from where you are sitting. Of course the interface needs an IP address. In my defense, normally for something like this, I wouldn't put it on the bonded interface with all the trunked VLAN's for guest traffic (we don't give that one an IP) and it would go on the other bonded interface that isn't trunked and does get an IP, but these are test hosts and I didn't set up the other bond, so it is pulling double duty. I was able to set the IP's and get SDN working. Thanks!

    Also.. Thank you for taking a look at it and solving it so quickly, @florent It is a quite nice interaction when reporting bugs that they are looked at and triaged. Not saying everything needs to be a priority 1. But I do appreciate being close to the process. And if I can help make things better by reporting bugs, in a hopefully constructive way. Then I'll continue to contribute my way.

    Offering feedback that my implementation of the XO CCM (v1.0.0-rc.1) into my K8s cluster was successful; I validated that the nodes were labeled as expected. I attached screenshots from Rancher and the CLI. In my lab, I use OCNE 1.9 (Oracle Cloud Native Environment) on Oracle Linux 9.7. In my setup, I edited the kubeadm-config ConfigMap and on all nodes added the Kubelet argument for the cloud provider. I restarted the Kubelet on all nodes and then deployed the CCM via Method 1 per the documentation From my setup to set the cloud-provider: kubectl edit cm kubeadm-config -n kube-system apiServer: extraArgs: cloud-provider: external controllerManager: extraArgs: cloud-provider: external sudo vim /etc/sysconfig/kubelet KUBELET_EXTRA_ARGS="--fail-swap-on=false --cloud-provider=external" sudo systemctl daemon-reload && sudo systemctl restart kubelet [image: 1770418969929-rancher_xo_ccm_labels-resized.png] [image: 1770419178223-ocne_xo-ccm_pod.png]

    @hitechhillbilly Hi, For now the import tool does not use the proxy. Not that the full import tool also work from source if you need additional XOA , but we won't be able to connect to them for support

    @Danp the issue is "resolved" only because we got the host back online so it released the lock. Yes I did try Start on which is method that produced the "The VDI is not available" error no the offline host was not the pool master Yes the VDI's are on shared iSCSI storage (truenas) And I want to note that OTHER VM's that were not on that failed host were able to restart and on any other node without an issue. I was even able to delete old snapshots without an issue so clearly the storage was online and available. It is deeply concerning that we were unable to get the VMs running again and only coincidental that were were able to re-seat the ram module and get it back online -- once it rejoined the pool the locked VM started without any issues on another host, so something was clearly locking it down even though it was fully stopped and visible.

    @olivierlambert said in Migrating logs and history between XOA instances?: Hi, VM stats aren't store on XOA but on your pools, and they should be there with the same history as the old one Can you tell exactly what kind of logs are you talking about? Thanks. I had looked on the wrong VM. The stats are indeed retained. Originally I was thinking of audit logs, but I realized they can be exported and imported. So for m point of view it is enough for now. Other logs that are missing is for example backup logs.

    @Forza I didn't try, as my default Graylog Input was UDP and worked with the hosts... But guys, that was it. In TCP mode, it's working. Rapidly set up a TCP input, and voila. [image: 1758137911306-42411fc9-af86-4838-a870-ca9ca6307234-image.png]

    @Andrw0830 I am using paid version of ESXi / vSphere. The free version of ESXi has so many limitations that I consider it pretty much unusable / only usable for very limited basic tests. It would not suprise me if your issue is due to the license limitations within ESXi.

    @Andrew said in XOA suddenly "empty" during rolling update: @halvor Yes, kind of... The pool master must be updated and rebooted first. If you move the master to a different host then you are no longer rebooting the pool master first. XOA is just a very smart client and needs the pool master to provide all of the pool information. Secondary machines will just redirect to the master, so if you try to connect XOA to one as a backup it won't work. You just need to wait for the master to reboot and return to a functioning state and wait for XOA to automatically reconnect. The everything will start happening again. If your master host is destroyed (ie. software corruption, hardware failure) then an existing host can be forced to take over the pool as master, but this is not a good thing to do unless the actual pool master is unrecoverable. Ok, great, thank you for clearing this up!

    @planedrop While you are connected to the XOA VM, be sure to verify that the required changes have been performed on /etc/systemd/system/xo-server.service when the VM memory was increased. Details can be found in this troubleshooting KB article -- https://help.vates.tech/kb/en-us/31/48

    I have no idea what this flag is doing, so my gut feeling is: no, it's not on XO side but a "problem "on the reverse proxy itself.
