    @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.

    Having XO from source or XOA act as a certification authority for the XCP-ng hosts is for sure a good approach. Would be great if that could include the VMs running on the XCP-ng hosts, which is my main goal (apart from being able to HTTPS into XO from source of course).

    @olivierlambert this is an old command. Replying because this shows up in a Google search result. The current command is: xe vm-destroy uuid="uuid of VM" (without the quotes)

    @JacobyBarr Unless I missed it, you still can't use secure boot with those ones, so that can pose an issue in some environments.

    @olivierlambert said in Feature Request: XCP-ng. The idea is to make it open via a XAPI call when needed (or automatically when XAPI is down). @guiltykeyboard A bit similar to how VMware ESXi handles SSH server, it has SSH stopped and/or disabled until requested in its web interface. Unlike possibly VMware ESXi its going to automatically enable and start the SSH server if XAPI is down!

    @olivierlambert I would agree... one of those odd glitches that occurred during the build process that corrected itself on a second run. Thanks for everyone's help... please go ahead and close this out!

    @Danp Deleting and then re-creating doesnt always work if there's another partition (swap) after. I usually do this: fdisk -l /dev/xvda (note the end blocks of the last partition under the End column) fdisk /dev/xvda n accept the defaults except starting blocks (use next free block as starting block) w vgextend almalinux /dev/xvda3 (if thats the number you saw when creating the new partition) lvresize /dev/template-vg/almalinux-root -l +100%FREE -r
