    @stormi I really appreciate the continued help. I'm not sure it works. On my single-host pool master—the one I want to join into my half-upgraded pool—I run the command: xe host-emergency-disable-tls-verification It returns with no errors. If I do xe host-param-list and look through the parameters for my host, I see: tls-verification-enabled ( RO): false This is the only thing I see documented that can turn off TLS verification. If some other command like pool-uninstall-ca-certificate would have the effect of disabling TLS verification, I can't see that documented anywhere. In fact, even though xe pool-uninstall-ca-certificate appears to be a valid command that my xe binary knows about, I can't find that particular command documented at all. Even after the emergency-disable-tls-verification, if I attempt to join that host to the half-upgraded pool (using xe pool-join...) I get: Error code: POOL_JOINING_HOST_TLS_VERIFICATION_MISMATCH It seems like even though the host has TLS verification off, the fact that its pool has verification enabled is blocking the action.

    Hi, Latest XOA, with fully patched XCP 8.3 here. I'm fiddling around again with NBD+CBT in backup jobs (was avoiding CBT for a time, to reliably control my backups and avoid unnecessary KEY points) in the context of THICK SRs to spare some space. I know that CBT is reset when migrating from one SR to another. But here is what I encounter : VM has no CBT enabled on its VDIs, it is on a SHARED SR in a pool of 3 hosts backup option changed for NBD+CBT, was only NBD before CBT is enabled on the next run by the backup job, I get a delta (was expecting a FULL ?) next run, delta, as expected i migrate this VM on another HOST, without changing its SR CBT is immediatly disabled ? why ?? next run of backup it tries a delta, but "fall back to a full" (normal as CBT has been disabled...), and do a KEY point on the remote next run is a delta as expected does this mean if I do a rolling pool update or host maintenance that will move the all VMs around, all CBT will be disabled and I should expect a FALL BACK TO FULL on all my NBD+CBT enabled backup jobs ??! why disabling CBT on a change of HOST and no move of SR ?

    @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/)

    XOA vs XO vs Backup feature

    @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/

    Olivier, I can say it's worse without the VGA being selected to 16Mb. That option is pretty much a must for any desktop virtualization. The novelty for me is people get far above 1080...
