    @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

    @BenjiReis I tried to fill in the IP address with brackets, but then the discovery of the NFS shares fails. With regular SRs, it works fine without using brackets.

    @stormi So I looked into the code of the ISOSR and there is a parameter for the version in the device-config. The parameter is vers but it can only be V1 or V3. And if it can't connect with V3, it will also try with V1.

    Hello @Andrew, thanks for your question! First off, I haven't tested Deno or Node with Xen-Orchestra yet. Changing the Node version can sometimes introduce bugs—some of which may be subtle. For that reason, I’d prefer not to venture into this unless it truly proves to be worth the effort. Secondly, in my experience, benchmarks don’t always translate into meaningful results in complex applications. That said, we are keeping an eye on alternative engines, both in terms of performance and the new features they offer. If we determine that the benefits are significant, we’d definitely consider migrating. Additionally, if any users want to experiment with Deno or Bun, they’re welcome to start dedicated threads on the forum to collaborate. We’d be happy to review and merge compatibility PRs as long as they don’t break Node and aren’t overly complex.

    @Danp So I had a problem with ldap, I read older article that mentioned doing this sudo npm install --global xo-server-auth-ldap which coincidently fixed ldap but that is when I noticed sync option were gone. This is just a POC and has noting running, so I will destroy and build new xoa. Thanks for help.

    @tuxpowered said in Rolling Pool Update - host took too long to restart: When the first note reboots (the master), I can see that the system is back up in 5-8 min. If I go in to XO > Settings > Servers and click the Enable/Disable status button to reconnect it pops right up. Again, does not resume migrating the other nodes. That is what I am seeing also, logged here https://xcp-ng.org/forum/topic/9683/rolling-pool-update-incomplete

    The easiest way to guarantee it is to depend on a local resource (local SR or ISO).

    If you proxy (or reverse proxy) any stuff, yes, you need to have a fixed address for the proxy.

    Yes, that's the issue, the max vCPU in Advanced tab. It's probably at 42 while you only have 32 physical CPUs. Therefore, the VM won't boot. See an example screenshot: [image: 1726217639918-8728f260-893b-4601-b8b2-43b39b9d6806-image.png]

    Hi, We offer air gap services to get you pre-bound XOA without the need for any Internet connection Otherwise, the workflow you used works too (configure XOA with a connected env and then export it). See https://xen-orchestra.com/docs/airgap.html for more details. Also, you can use our airgap deploy script in here: https://xen-orchestra.com/blog/xen-orchestra-5-95/#️-air-gap-features
