    @tmk said in Cloudbase-init on Windows: @jkatz I ran into the same issue when trying to configure a network adapter with cloudbase-init. The documentation says that the MAC address value is optional but in reality it is required. In my case I want Xen Orchestra to choose a unique MAC during deployment, and I since I am deploying from a template, the NIC name is a known value. The fix that ended up working for me was to modify the networkconfig.py file in cloudbase-init so that the NIC name is required and the MAC address is optional. I ended up making some additional changes to allow for the network-config v2 format along with the existing v1 support and some additional logic to aid in setting the dns search domains (I can't recall if this was originally supported or not but I had issues getting it to work with the original networkconfig.py file) This file needs to replace the existing one that is installed in the C:\Program Files\Cloudbase Solutions\Cloudbase-Init\Python\Lib\site-packages\cloudbaseinit\plugins\common\ directory. To replace it you should make sure that the cloudbase-init service is stopped, then replace the file. Once this file is replaced, delete the pycache folder in the same parent folder as networkconfig.py - this will ensure that python recompiles this file on service start. Start the cloudbase-init service and confirm that you see a new pycache get created. I'm not a python programmer by trade so others may be able to point out areas for improvement but this ended up working for me and I wanted to share in case it could help others needing to deploy new servers without manually specifying a new MAC address. Below is an example network-config v2 format that works with the updated file. version: 2 ethernets: Ethernet 2: dhcp4: false addresses: - 10.20.30.10/24 nameservers: addresses: - 10.20.5.12 - 10.20.5.13 - 10.20.5.14 search: - intranet.domain.org - domain.org - public-domain.org routes: - to: default via: 10.20.30.1 Updated networkconfig.py file: networkconfig.py.txt Thank you for posting! I followed your directions verbatim and I'm still having trouble getting the network config to take. Does it work with Windows Server 2025?

    @manilx I have proposed to the IaC team of Vates, a MCP Server for Vates VMS. Which can be used by GitHub Copilot or similar, if used when doing IaC etc.

    @Chico008 ACLs are used to assign rights to the guest users. As you said you have an admin who can do anything. In case you want to go with acl then your guest can get no leverage by using ACL create vm You as an admin will create VMs and manage other stuff but you then have ability to give three type of rights to the guest user. admin, operator, viewer In case of VMs when you give the admin right to a user then it means that user can have ability to anything with that VM. Delete, Reboot, etc But from you query you said that you want to give a right to guest user to create/run the vms to achieve this you have to look Self Service feature which is supported in XO from sources and in Premium XOA In self service you have ability to create resource sets which are pools, storage, networks, templates etc, and assign a user or group to it.

    I'm starting to think that something is wrong. Everywhere I check, I can see that the SAML request from the SP should have a signature of some sort. It doesn't seem that there is anything of the sort in our case. We are using the opensource for preproduction and are waiting for a pro license (paperwork on it's way) so maybe there is something wrong in the implementation ?

    @dinhngtu said in LDAP fails with error "Code: -32000 Message: Code: 0x3": sAMAccountName Thank you. (userPrincipalName={{name}}) filter made the trick. When I use (userPrincipalName={{name}}), it works for me either I set certificate check ON or not. (Actually I was expecting to check AD root cert as this connection is using LDAPS) And also test only works when I do it using UPN but not with username@domain format. Other filter options did not work at all.

    positive Update: today I wanted to continue with this problem, but when I logged Into XOA today, Master status was Green / enabled. Since no one execpt me has credentials to the Testcluster, I am sure that no one else had done something. So the master host seemed to recovered itself from grey to green within the last 8 Hours. There were at least 1-2 hours yesterday between execution of "pool-emergency-transition-to-master" and still beeing grey dot / Halted. xe pool-emergency-reset-master master-address=... then added the remaining hosts to the new master.

    bringing up the host and restarting the tools on master seem to stop the excessive logging. EDIT: Bringing down host 3 triggers the alerts again EDIT2: Looks like it may be due to how i shutdown the host. First time I put it into maintenance mode, then did the halt command. That caused the messages to come up. Second time I just did halt and that caused the messages to come up. Third time, i hit disable first then halt. So far seems the messages are no longer coming up. I guess i should RTM more lol.

    @olivierlambert said in XOCE - Language not keep when i come back (surrely dumb question): Why? I mean you are the first person to ask this. It's more work to do that and I'm not sure to really see the value A cookie is the perfect simple way to store info that are from your same browser/session, so it's very logical. Yeah, I don't see the value in having to keep a user preference within XO itself either.. just don't clear your cookies. It's what they are meant for.
