    @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 is there a way to mount the same disk in two VMs in RW mode? I have a lab that uses pacemaker inside the VM's and pacemaker handles the mounting/access of the volumes. I have a working setup on oVirt using the "Shareable" option of a Virtual Disk. So I can attach to multiple VM's simultaneously. Is there anything similar on XCP-ng? Even if I have to hack through the command like to attach? Thank you.

    @fffeee the underlying storage repository is disconnected from the Host. It would likely be better to open a new topic to discuss in detail, as there are a variety of reasons as to why this could happen that are going to be case specific to your issue.

    @djingo My syslog stopped working (I think after one o the updates) and this bug still exists. If you trying removing it form the Pool or individual hosts in the Pool via XO it will not let you have it as blank. If you ssh in and use xsconsole you can remove the syslog server and but it will not let you specify a port. But once it has been removed from xsconsole you can go back into XO and add in the syslogserver along with a non-default port such as 192.168.2.7:1521 and it will work.

    @pdonias said in Xen Orchestra & XO Lite PWA Manifest: Thank you @john-c! We need to make a few changes first, we'll take care of your PR right after that As a result of taking such a long time to get around to reviewing and merging my PR. The base for my contribution got really out of sync so I had to discard the changes and rebase. This meant the PR got closed a new one was needed. The Old PR with branch was really out of sync and with several lots of conflicts. https://github.com/vatesfr/xen-orchestra/pull/7445 So please do this new one during today or tomorrow so that the rebasing isn't needed again!

    @stormi Thanks for your answer. I'll give a try later, bypassing the PFBlocker module of the router. Github is not currently on any blacklist, but I block Digital Ocean and some others who host many attackers.

    Problem importing ANY ESXi VMDK into Xen Orchestra CE

    @Mathieu said in Problem importing ANY ESXi VMDK into Xen Orchestra CE: Just experienced the same issue with a few VMs I imported from VMware. I think it's a Windows issue, from what I can tell. The network adapter type changes after the import in xcp-ng (from VMXNet to XenServer PV), that's normal. Windows do not allow the same IP address to be used automatically for a different type of network adapter, so that's why it reverts to DHCP with the new adapter. You can see that by setting the previous static IP address in the new adapter, it will warn you that the address was used with a previous adapter and asks for confirmation. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/troubleshoot/windows-server/networking/error-message-when-you-set-ip-address No idea if there's a way to avoid that. Yeah same, we're also using VMXNET. When trying to do this manually there's a popup which you have to accept to "force" having the same IP on multiple interfaces. Im sure the IP's are save in registry so deleting the post as part of the process would probably resolve it.

    @julien-f Agreed... I will add (just for future reference) that I did confirm that I was on the very latest versions of xo-server at the time... in fact, I made sure to apply all updates and reboot the Xen server before submitting the ticket. Nothing seemed to work... even multiple reboots, etc. Once @Danp made mention of the Nodejs version and I updated from v18.18.2 to v18.19.1 everything immediately started working. I made no other changes after applying the Nodejs update. So while that may not have been the cause, it somehow fixed whatever was ailing me. I have no explanation either, other than the fact that making that change is what took me from the feature not working to the feature working.

    @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
