    @dinhngtu said in Execute pre-freeze and post-thaw: There used to be quiescent snapshot capabilities in older versions (mainly for Windows VSS support), but it has since been removed. I'd say @Team-XAPI-Network knows more about the reason. We have vmware with ppdm backups and the vss part is actually causing some annoying issues such as quite long io stalls. But I do understand the reason for vss, especially for applications that aren't crash safe.

    @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'

    @mpiton thanks for sharing docs, the crucial part was openssl rand -hex 32 my password was too simple and that's why i got :"Query authentication does not match server setting" error after setting 32 characters password i got my metrics, in both http://localhost:9004/metrics and http://<xo-ip>/openmetrics/metrics

    @flakpyro yes, indeed that exactly what I was talking about. The XO6 new interface will provide more information, but I am noting the missing type of bound to discuss it with XO team for next feature.

    Works with .raw at the moment. If you disconnect it from the vm and migrate it to another SR its converter to vhd.

    @yzgulec said in How to deploy XO on ESXi: I just used VMware Converter for V2V (seems more practical for me) Installing from Source or using an installation script from the community is also very straight-forwards. Maybe 10 minutes worth of setup for the OS and then for at least my github it's a single line installation.

    @splastunov I realize this thread is old, but I think there is important info to keep connected to this thread for future readers. The IP locking trick doesn't seem to prevent all traffic -- it only prevents traffic that has an IP that isn't 255.255.255.255 (and possibly others as well). That is, I can still successfully acquire a DHCP IP even when the IP locking mechanism is engaged. I think this is important for others to know since it doesn't fully isolate VMs like the OP wanted. UPDATE: Setting the locking mode to "disabled" is what you want -- not "locked". Disabled will drop all traffic; locked simply checks if the set of IPs in the VM is permitted.

    @irtaza9 Sometimes when I have been tinkering with a host, I get a red triangle. Then just pressing Enabled and then Disabled can get rid of the triangle and the host back in business again.

    @julien-f said in Enhancement suggestion: Filter showing VMs that don't have the agent installed: XO does not support this for halted VMs but that could be added indeed. Can you change the title of my thread to "Enhancement suggestion: Update 'ManagementAgentDetected?' to support halted VMs" ?

    @irtaza9 You should be able to login with the default credentials after you restart the xo-server service with systemctl restart xo-server.service.

    @ph7 Some of the errors you encountered are intended. We don't allow values in the "Virtual Machines" field if "Exclude VMs" is disabled and "All running VMs" is enabled, because it would make the plugin configuration confusing. However you're right, there seems to be an issue when the VMs are selected and then removed. The value becomes an empty list instead of being undefined, which causes the validation to fail when we try to turn off the "Exclude VMs" option. I'm going to create a task on our side so that we can plan to resolve this problem. In the meantime you can work around the problem by deleting the monitor and recreating a new one with the same parameters.

    @BenjiReis HA is automatically disabled by the RPU when it starts, then enabled at the end. - I see the task for that in the task log. We do have about 5 VMs that do not have HA enabled, but they are very small (~4GB each) so should not make any difference regardless of which hosts they were on. Also all VMs successfully evacuate from the host for the updates, its only when VMs are migrated back after all hosts are upgraded that I see a problem. I've raised a support ticket, if anything relevant comes out of it I'll try and report back here for future readers. Thanks for the suggestions, Neal.

    @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.
