    @Andrew Yeah but XOA is still using it hence my interest in aligning my XO-CE instance with XOA as close as possible.

    Version 1.4.0 is released: https://codeberg.org/NiXOA/system/releases/tag/v1.4.0 It includes significant changes and improvements, including: dedicated getting started section, migration to valkey, only needing to clone system, and helper scripts. the xen-orchestra-ce nixpkg now references the libvhdi nixpkg, and the core flake now references and pulls from the xen-orchestra-ce repo as an overlay. System (the user input flake) now uses the Core repo as an overlay, reducing the need to clone both locally AND allowing system to pull new updates and releases from core. XO, and libvhdi as needed. The next goal is: Make an xsconsole-like TUI Automate package updates for libvhdi and xen-orchestra-ce using CI/CD pipelines Submit libvhdi and xen-orchestra-ce as official nixpkgs

    @bullerwins It's a wonderful feature, you can have customized filters for VM, storage, Templates, and Pools. Combine that with using lots of tags and it makes larger deployments very manageable.

    Cloud configs allow {{name}}% substitutions. From my perspective (as a user), for how {{name}} is used in my cloud configs something like {{address}} would be identical. What is the intended use case for the IPAM functionality in XOA if it can't be used like this? Real question, not trolling

    Also note the text at the top of your screenshot: to continue you need to select a boot device. There might be a way in that menu (or partition creation submenu) to mark that created partition as bootable, or maybe you just need to highlight/select the partition under "used devices" before hitting "done"

    I would like some examples too. My latest (first) try gives me: alfcruz-adm@local.hcpa.ufrgs.br@volt-ampere:~/packer-plugin-xenserver$ packer build ./ubuntu-2004.pkr.hcl xenserver-iso.ubuntu-2004: output will be in this color.

    @encryptblockr hope to try the same with their even smaller "CORE" images. There is not an .OVA download but .xz downloads that when expanded have .img . https://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-core/22/stable/current/ubuntu-core-22-amd64.img.xz and https://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-core/22/stable/current/ubuntu-core-22-amd64+intel-iot.img.xz cloud-init seems to require experimentation and these small images boot quickly for me. Are you then following Fohdeesha's instructions?

    @NeilGrevitt Whilst migrating my other backups to NFS, I noticed that one of the VM backups is able to perform file restores successfully. The successful VM is Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS, but has been upgraded multiple times and was originally a flavour of 18.x LTS somewhere along it's life. The unsuccessful VM is Ubuntu 20.04.5 LTS that I believe was installed at this version. The only difference I can see is the output of lvscan, which does point to an issue with LVM! Successful VM: :~$ sudo lvscan :~$ Unsuccesful VM: :~$ sudo lvscan ACTIVE '/dev/ubuntu-vg/ubuntu-lv' [<19.00 GiB] inherit Not sure where to go now but thought it worth reporting!

    @mauzilla Just an FYI, I have not tested the latest Scale 22.12 RC1 for performance but the previous versions of scale under some conditions was quite a bit slower. I have a video covering this topic here with the benchmarks and methodology used for testing. https://youtu.be/BoiHHnBDg0E

    Thanks all for your comments. I've managed to overcome the NFS errors listed, by using the new "multiple data blocks" setting! So for me, looks like backing up to .vhd won't work on either SMB or NFS.
