    @florent Thanks for your reply! We have started to migrate thousands of VMs, so disk transfer speed is important for us.. We will also do our detailed tests soon with different threads setting and publish it here. I think threads=1 is a good and logical default, but not efficient. Others might complain if you set it to a higher value. Configuration option would be a real good solution.

    Hi @pierrebrunet With commit c74a8 the problem is still present but the transfer was completed again. Unfortunately my installation does not recognize the "xen-bugtool" command. And both log files are not present. Is this something that needs enabling after install of XCP-NG? Unfortunately and unnoticed my syslog-server did not receive any messages from XCP-NG in the last 30 days. Other inputs work **Edit: I have deleted and re-added the syslog-server with port and now logs are being send to Graylog.** Thanks for your assistance y'all. Regards, Marc

    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

    The Kubernetes CSI driver for Xen Orchestra just hit v0.4.0, and we want it on more real clusters before it reaches a stable release candidate. If you run Kubernetes on XCP-ng VMs, this is a good time to give it a proper workout. What's new in v0.4.0: Local-storage support Automatic pool-discovery fallback Kubernetes metadata now lives in Xen Orchestra VDI tags instead of the deprecated other_config. That change also drops the old requirement for Xen Orchestra 6.4 or newer, so the driver runs on more deployments now. ️ Read this before you upgrade. v0.4.0 is a breaking change. The Kubernetes metadata moved from other_config to VDI tags, so you must migrate before upgrading from v0.3.0. Do not upgrade in place: follow the v0.3.0 to v0.4.0 migration guide in the release notes, then move to v0.4.0. What helps us most is hearing how it behaves on your own setup: what works, what breaks, which storage backend you use, and which flavour of Kubernetes you run (k3s, full k8s, or something else). Edge cases on real clusters are the ones we don't see in our own testing. Where to report: start right here in this thread. It keeps everything visible to the community and lets others on the same setup jump in. If something turns out to be a reproducible bug, we'll move it to a GitHub issue on the repo so the team can track it to a fix. Release notes and migration guide: https://github.com/vatesfr/xenorchestra-csi-driver/releases/tag/v0.4.0

    @olivierlambert said in Encrypt Server Passwords: I'm not saying it's not possible, I'm saying this will be at the huge expense of usability. One such software implementation of a KMIP protocol server, which is in software form is an open source fork of HashiCorp Vault. This open source fork is called OpenBao (https://openbao.org/).

    I think on recent XOA we even switched to systemd-timesyncd. Pinging @thomas-dkmt so he can update the doc to fix it (only the new doc directly! oh and you can ask @julien-f for details if needed, thanks!).

    @olivierlambert said in Error restore backup: No I mean the file level restore feature from XO. If it all worked, I'm curious to understand why you had this issue in the first place. Did you restore the entire chain? We had to restore the entire VM as a new instance from Xen Orchestra using the delta backup. However, the same error occurred with each restore point. So, we manually copied the backup files from XOA and imported them.

    @andrewperry yes, we replicate TrueNAS to a "standby" TrueNAS using zpool / truenas replication. Our current policy is hourly. We then (plan) to do Incremental replication of all VM's to a standby TrueNAS over weekends giving a 3 possible methods for recovery. Currently we're running into a major drawback with VM's on TrueNAS over NFS (specifically VM's that rely on fast storage such as databases and recordings). We did not anticipate such a huge drop in performance having VHD files over NFS. We're reaching out to XCP to ask them to give us some advice as it could likely be in part due to customization we can make.

    @wildones It's good that the XCP hosts can reach each other, but that's not enough. XOA needs to reach all the hosts too. You may want to use an XO proxy to manage remote locations. Please read the XO proxy guide.
