    I am running NVIDIA P40s on a DELL R720/R730 and a NVIDIA A2000 12GB on a DELL Optiplex 9010 in my playlab. Getting the GPUs to be accessible for VMs was quite easy: shutdown the XCP-ng host, install the GPUs, start the host again, activate the GPU in the advanced settings of the host in the PCI Devices section (“Passthrough enabled”). The host will restart at this point after displaying a warning. That's it – the GPU can now be assigned to a VM in the VMs advanced settings. I do use the GPUs for AI workloads under Debian though, so your use case might vary.

    @bleader Hopefully the palm print on my forehead isn't visible from where you are sitting. Of course the interface needs an IP address. In my defense, normally for something like this, I wouldn't put it on the bonded interface with all the trunked VLAN's for guest traffic (we don't give that one an IP) and it would go on the other bonded interface that isn't trunked and does get an IP, but these are test hosts and I didn't set up the other bond, so it is pulling double duty. I was able to set the IP's and get SDN working. Thanks!

    Having the flag "Protect from accidental deletion" has since yesterday left me with plenty of restored VMs. In the backup logs, it indicates that this happens during the healthcheck. This has happened on 3 out of 6 VMs [image: 1770237677335-23a84083-7aa0-4405-81f2-30e630b5edd5-image.png] commit: dd5f0cdaa9993fae25469bd1cb1d01d4f2123f44 transfer Start: 2026-02-04 12:16 End: 2026-02-04 12:16 Duration: a few seconds Size: 2.01 GiB Speed: 81.14 MiB/s health check transfer Start: 2026-02-04 12:16 End: 2026-02-04 12:35 Duration: 19 minutes vmstart Start: 2026-02-04 12:35 End: 2026-02-04 12:35 Start: 2026-02-04 12:16 End: 2026-02-04 12:35 Error: forbidden operation: destroy is blocked: protected from accidental deletion Start: 2026-02-04 12:15 End: 2026-02-04 12:35 Duration: 20 minutes Error: forbidden operation: destroy is blocked: protected from accidental deletion Clean VM directory cleanVm: incorrect backup size in metadata merge Start: 2026-02-04 12:40 End: 2026-02-04 12:41 Duration: a minute Start: 2026-02-04 12:40 End: 2026-02-04 12:41 Snapshot Start: 2026-02-04 12:41 End: 2026-02-04 12:41

    Kubernetes CCM for Xen Orchestra v1.0.0-rc.1 We’re shipping v1.0.0-rc.1, our first release candidate on the road to a stable 1.0.0! This RC is feature-complete and ready for real-world use. Please try it out and share any feedback—bugs, regressions, or usability notes—so we can polish the final release. Thank you for testing and helping us! https://github.com/vatesfr/xenorchestra-cloud-controller-manager/releases/tag/v1.0.0-rc.1 Golang SDK for Xen Orchestra v1.11.0 SDK v2: VM and Task services now match the latest REST API. Host service has been added for host data retrieval. Integration tests have also been strengthened to boost reliability. The v2 SDK is gradually becoming our main library for all the other DevOps tools (Kubernetes drivers, Terraform provider…). There are BREAKING CAHNGES in the v2 SDK, so please read the release notes carefully. Remember that the v2 SDK is a beta version and can be subject to significant changes. The current semantic versioning we use is mostly for the v1 SDK. When the v2 SDK becomes stable, the major version number will increase. https://github.com/vatesfr/xenorchestra-go-sdk/releases/tag/v1.11.0

    @Danp Yes. I have 3 VMs on this host plus the XOA. All using the same eth1. I'm able to reach https://xen-orchestra.com/ from the network and other VMs. Although in the Internet connectivity: Error: above it is being directed to non SSL connection. Could it be that the registration cannot handle redirects? JB

    Even with a sfc and cleanup, manually reinstalling the package caused the same behavior. I've got backups of this system and will build a template from the working backup for if it goes sideways. I've got other stuff to handle.

    Well, that worked and the VM booted.... Windows joins domain, and.... /something went wrong, redeployment required/. No desktop, no apparent way to check for errors. We're beyond the scope of this thread. Thank you! Serendipitously, someone from Netwrix called me soon after that. I told him I know the big two commercial virtualization names are supported, but all this /can/ be imported here... I also gave him a quick elevator pitch on XCP-ng, for as much good as that might do with a kinda new sales guy. From here on out, if their engineers can't help, I'm off to find something else.

    @florent said in Import from VMware: @Olest that's a nice catch, every day I discover new limits of the vmware licensing . At least we could catch the error and show something useful to the user Just wait, everything free from VMWare is going away, so it'll just be the assumption that if you should be able to do it, you won't be able to.

    @mestafin XOA/XO is an appliance with a web UI that should run as bare-metal or virtualized instance. It is a multi user management solution, that can handle different pools and user. Backup of a VM allows for easy restore. No need to install it on a notebook.
