    I tried this on my lab (with XO 6.9.1), moving the pool master to the other host with xe pool-designate-new-master and then back. XO stayed connected both times and picked up the new master, even though Settings > Servers still showed the old host's address; on the way back it took a minute or two to catch up. I didn't test 6.2.2, and I used the CLI rather than the XO 5 Advanced tab, so my guess that your older version is the difference is only a guess. For the XVA, I'm not aware of release notes for the appliance image itself: it updates itself after import, and the notes that exist are per XO version, in the monthly blog post and the changelog, both linked from https://docs.xen-orchestra.com/getting-started/releases#release-cadence-and-channels . How often the downloadable XVA gets rebuilt I don't know, so the 2025.12 tag may just be the date of the base image, but I'd rather ask than guess.

    I ran into the same problem with DR replicas. Ignoring VMs by tag would solve the problem, but so would excluding the ip address information.

    Hi! We recieved a fix via the support after opening a ticket as suggested. Now the pool metadata backup is running smoothly again. As far as i know 6.9 will become "stable" after 6.10 is released. I'd still suggest a patch for the stable version, unless the new release is a few days. Best wishes Jacob

    @bug-meister Ah. That's cloud-init's support for templating user-data. The issue is that with these templates you only have access to the info available inside the VM itself. No outside data can be used for templating unless it is somehow passed to the VM (inject a file, set xenstore values...)

    That would be interesting. This won't rule out everything but at least we might notice something different.

    Every HA or load balancing setup is too take it seriously. Consequences might be high, so use it only if we really know what you are doing.

    @d1rtym0nk3y Thanks for the feedback! This is actually something that we had in mind. It will probably have to wait for the next major version of XO, though.

    @dreday said in Cannot see virtual Machine consoles...: @FPIT I would say to further troubleshoot the limited connectivity issues first... A few things that jump to mind right away Does the host have a network gateway address set for the management interface? Are there any firewalls or switch port ACLs blocking traffic? This one is the least likely culprit 3) Is you host management configured to use DHCP?(based on the blank console, though it would not explain the connectivity issues unless DHCP is not providing all necessary information for the network) Option number 3 worked for me. I had initially configured my management console (with public IP) to use DHCP and the other port (with local IP) to use static. When I did reset all connections to use DHCP the consoles came up. Thank you thank you thank you! @DreDay and of course thanks @FPIT for raising the issue. #one

    @olivierlambert Thank you again for the answer! I was not using the right search criteria to find this part myself Changed the 'config.toml' file after searching my system (not an XOA but XO CE, so it was in another location then mentioned in the documentation) Restarted and just as expected the GUI was only available on the specified IP

    We are focusing first on getting something correctly integrated from XOA, it doesn't mean it will be exclusive to XOA. It's just we are first focusing on a completely "known" environment (XOA), but I think at some point we'll be able to provide manual setup for people who want to do it from the sources

    @julien-f Backup files check found no problems, so I tried to restore again and it works. No changes or updates in XO, no changes on vhd or json files (same dates and sizes). Only think I did was detach and attach backup repository (settings - remotes) which I tried before with no luck.

    In theory, static min is bundled in the template and you shouldn't use less than that. If you still want to do it, consider it as "advanced", and do it with xe
