    @poddingue there is a notion of appliance too (group of VMs) https://docs.xcp-ng.org/appendix/cli_reference/#appliance-commands where you can start/stop a group of VMs, never tried it, doesn't seem to have a boot order in the vAPP neither

    @gcpeters4 said: @john.c This is a good idea as well. If the previous suggestion of trying to do a DNS round robin approach doesn't work, this may be my best option. Thanks for taking the time to provide your suggestion! By the way my suggestion is recommended best practice from Microsoft for their Active Directory software and/or technology. My suggestion will be more likely to work if your DNS servers and requests have issues with Round Robin configuration. Plus with my solution you can easily add more servers as domain controllers to the cluster, as required and use replication to keep them consistent and up to date.

    hello there, still XOA 6.3.3 here. since the last big XObackup & CR reworking, we have an annoying bug [image: 1778328477250-6db625da-2a61-4860-bc50-5c6adae0ae33-image.jpeg] This VM is 2.17Tb [image: 1778328523117-bc28b5ef-f37d-4bf9-b016-921309c17353-image.jpeg] how can be the KEY is 9.1Gb ? In fact the KEY size is good, but when retention of 10 points is obtained, the merging of last incremental in the first KEY point of the chain erase the size. So in our restore view, data sizes are all wrong, based on the sum of this key + 9 inc [image: 1778328703332-2e0a1587-365a-404f-9186-2b909605b3fa-image.jpeg] @florent could you do something about that ?

    @afk I’ve got two draft nixpkgs for libvhdi and Xen orchestra from sources respectively, I’ll look into submitting them upstream soon but take a look and feel free to share any feedback xen-orchestra-ce libvhdi.

    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

    With classical export (ie VHD and without NBD) you cannot "resume" a backup. Now it's possible (technically with NBD) but it's not done (yet). But we improved a lot the retry vs the original backups in VHD.

    In theory, like thinking on top of my head, an agent in the physical machine that will be able to replicate the VM files in the same format than the XO backup, with also the "machine metadata" (CPU, RAM etc.). Then, if something goes wrong, you could restore a backup as a VM from the real machine.
