    Is a centralized XOA server "managing" two remote Proxy-fronted XCP clusters supported with the SDN Controller Plugin? We are looking to deploy an architecture similar to this blog post from 2022: https://xen-orchestra.com/blog/xo-proxy-a-concrete-guide/

    @florent Unfortunately I'm not able to connect logs and such until tomorrow. But I can share further info on the configs. The backup type is Delta. NBD is activated and reachable The SR on the source drive is local Target SR is truenas nfs. Transfers are as expected. Starting with the commits on 27th. These infos and fallback to full started happening. They have not been seen before. Resulting in transfers becoming 300% larger than expected. All vdi are vhd I compile from source almost daily. Hence me being very certain this is due to recent commits. Info warning and fallback is happening even after second attempt after latest updates as well. So issue persists between reboots as well. Is there a vates upload service I can upload to? Or if we reset my XO trial, I can open a support tunnel for you

    Hello I'm pulling stats for all VMs to understand CPU usage. We're a bit behind the curve in terms of XO versions, but these questions hopefully are still relevant. If using a granularity of days, the interval is set to 86400 (understandably) but the endTimestamp varies. Running this on June 9th @ ~1740 we get timestamps for both Mon Jun 8 01:00:00 AM BST 2026 and Tues Jun 9 01:00:00 AM BST 2026. Does this average across the day? Why is the timestamp 0100? Why would there be different timestamps between VMs (all are running) and does that mean that the figures are misaligned in the results? These are retrieved via curl and a bash script, a bit hacky, but for clarity the request is: ++ curl -X GET -s -H accept:application/json -b authenticationToken=[[REDACTED]] -o [[REDACTED]] 'https://[[REDACTED]]/rest/v0/vms/[[REDACTED]]/stats?granularity=days' Really keen to know if we can control the start and endtime, as well as provide a manual interval, as well as the aggregation strategy (min, max, average). Are any of these possible? Lastly, is cpuUsage the percentage as per the dashboard, but averaged over all CPUs? Thanks so much in advance. James

    New releases! Terraform Provider Xen Orchestra v0.40.0 This new release allows users to import VMs directly from Xen Orchestra into Terraform without recreating it or modifying manually the Terraform state. There is still some drift when importing it, but nothing that changes the real state of VM and we are currently on it! https://github.com/vatesfr/terraform-provider-xenorchestra/releases/tag/v0.40.0 Golang SDK for Xen Orchestra v1.17.0 v2 The network service is now available from the v2 client! You can now create, get and delete your network directly from it! v1 & v2 The template value in VM struct params has been fixed, We can now get the template id directly from it. https://github.com/vatesfr/xenorchestra-go-sdk/releases/tag/v1.17.0

    @DukeVenator I suppose you've done that, but just in case I'lll ask: have you issued systemctl restart xo-server.service ? Firewall rules may need modyfying. What is the output of ufw status verbose ?

    @Danp No, I haven't as I never use non-LTS servers from Ubuntu, and most software and guides asks for LTS. I might test it later with 19.04 but my posting here was more for the sake of others as I imagine that I'm not the only one that has experienced this on Ubuntu so when I figured out that it works in Debian I figured others could get some help too. It might also point the developers in the right direction if they wish to look into this, I don't know how many users there are that have got this problem but at least there are some of us so it might be something to look at if not at least there is a posted alternative. Most would not change OS if all guides tell them that Ubuntu works so this was more meant as a PSA if nothing else.

    It's Javascript, so there's no really mandatory tools: Any text editor supporting editor config for basic rules formatting is a good start A GitHub account Same recommendation for the dev env than running XO from the sources: NodeJS 8 and yarn That's pretty much it.

    @cg it works on restored VMs from pre-fix backups. I haven't tested post fix backups yet. However, it also works on newly installed VMs.

    Hi! The new standard way to import is here: https://xen-orchestra.com/#!/xoa Let me know if you have any issue. It's still in beta yet, and we got one small issue to fix (it won't fetch the XO username/password, so it's still admin@admin.net / admin)

    Technically everything is possible (even adding disk) but not with the XOSAN UI. If you want more flexibility, I suggest you wait for XOSANv2.

    That's normal. If you boot the replicated VMs, then blocks will be changed. It mean no further delta replication will work on this VM. Force boot it if you lost the original VM and you don't care about delta toward the copy anymore. If you just want to test the VM without doing a new full (breaking the delta chain), boot with a copy. I think I explained that in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FfUqIwT8KzI That's a display glitch.
