    @rtjdamen hey there, did you ever modify in the POOL advanced tab at the bottom the BACKUP network & MIGRATION network ? fiddle with these, note what they are actually set, and change them if possible between each change, check your SR stats @florent could explain better how SR stats use the backup network to get the RRDs... I guess you have stalled RRD tasks too ? in tasks list ?

    As an observation ; I'm going to draw attention to @majorp93's point about rebooting the servers after ALL nodes have been upgraded. Historically we would move all VMs off master, upgrade master, restart its toolstack, then reboot master, then move VMs from Node 1 to master so we could begin the upgrade on Node1. Normally works ok but last time around it caused all sorts of problems. Previously it had felt right to upgrade master in its entirety including the reboot before moving on to the next host and rinse, repeat - but this cost us a lot of time, corruptions and pain. TLDR: Perhaps add a footnote to the docs that when upgrading a pool the reboots should take place as a final step across the pool only after all nodes have been updated.

    @florent, I had to do the same for Xen Orchestra Community Edition. In my case, config.toml already contained the [authentication] section, so adding a separate config.tokenValidity.toml file did not work. Instead, I had to modify the existing config.toml located at /opt/xo/xo-server. In my opinion, it is best to keep defaultTokenValidity set to 30 days as a fallback in case no value is specified. You can then simply increase maxTokenValidity to the duration you prefer. [authentication] defaultTokenValidity = '30 days' # default value of 0.5 years # comment out and increase to 5 years #maxTokenValidity = ' 0.5 year' maxTokenValidity = '5 year'

    @majorp93 I've updated and added a node.js-installation to the role. Targeting the LTS-24 version. I hope you find it to your liking.

    @KPS Unfortunate, no. I just replicate and avoid moving live VM on the same host, target for replication.

    @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.

    XOA suddenly "empty" during rolling update

    @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.

    I just had this problem with a ubuntu VM. With recovery mode selected press e to edit. Remove nomodeset. Here is an example. From: linux /vmlinuz-5.4.0-65-generic root=/dev/mapper/ubuntu--vg-ubuntu--lv ro recovery nomodeset dis_ucode_ldr To: linux /vmlinuz-5.4.0-65-generic root=/dev/mapper/ubuntu--vg-ubuntu--lv ro recovery dis_ucode_ldr The link below helped me solve this issue. https://portal.nutanix.com/page/documents/kbs/details?targetId=kA07V000000LWLrSAO

    @CodeMercenary Glad it worked! I just noticed that in the couple weeks since this happened, a new set of Pool Patches was available, so I ran through the usual process to update those and had no issues at all. This time, everything went smoothly, just as it has for the entire time I've had this lab up and running. So, chalk this up to one of those weird glitches you're bound to see when you use any technology long enough. As far as I'm concerned, the issue has been resolved. Please feel free to close out the issue.

    @acebmxer good news! XO Team is totally aware of these "loading in progress" issues, and it will be fixed in the next release which will be released very soon. Don't hesitate to inform us if you see another UI issues. Have a good day!

    @Cyrille It would be nice if (assuming integration with the ccm) there was a way to integrate the horizontal scaling tooling that exists to automatically scale up&down (setting minimum/maximum VM counts), but that is 100% out of scope for the CCM as is Im sure. If you are asking for a dream wishlist tho, Id love if I could See what recipes Ive deployed & their current settings & general sum-stats have ability to adjust variables such as the ssh key, the current worker count or upgrade to a HA cluster (that is, increase master count to 3. (I understand that some of those are harder than others) Be able to upgrade the recipes as necessary (IE from 1.33-> 1.34).

    @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 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.

    Installation: expecting an rsa key, any plans to support elliptic curve keys?

    @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/)
