    @carloum70 Are all your hosts properly time sychronized to NTP or chronyc? Check each host for offsets. They need to be really close in time with each other. And what HA heartbeat client setup are you using? As long as you have a quorum, HA should continue to work fine. WHen you get down to two hosts and one cannot communicate with the other is when things get critical (unless running HA-Lizard on a two-host pool).

    I ran into the same problem with DR replicas. Ignoring VMs by tag would solve the problem, but so would excluding the ip address information.

    @simonp said: @acebmxer Hi, Thanks to your help we were able to identify an issue with Redis that we think is the source of the v6 dashboard loading issue. Could you try and checkout the fix_redis_encryption_issue branch, rebuild xo and restart ? This should solve the 401 issues. Switched back to Master branch and made some changes to my install script. add diagnostics for missing XO 6 web UI build artifacts Plain bash [[ -f ]] fails silently on unreadable paths owned by SERVICE_USER, causing false-positive missing-artifact warnings. Switch all file/dir tests and grep calls to use sudo. SUCCESS] Xen Orchestra built successfully [INFO] Build verification passed: dist — all JS chunks present.

    Edit a Bond to Remove a NIC?

    Take it with a grain of salt, but I think bonds are usually managed as a whole rather than edited port by port in the UI. As far as I can tell, the supported route is from the network section in Xen Orchestra (the bonding part of the infrastructure docs is here: https://docs.xen-orchestra.com/xo5/manage_infrastructure#network-bonding), and on the CLI side, the bond commands are documented at https://docs.xcp-ng.org/appendix/cli_reference#bond-create (there's a matching bond-destroy command alongside it). My honest guess is you may end up destroying and recreating the bond with the four ports you want to keep, since I'm not sure removing a single member in place is exposed anywhere, but I could easily be wrong. If there's a cleaner way that avoids the recreate, someone will let us know.

    Unable to import Backup Config from Community Edition to XOA Deployed Appliance

    Ok I think I have resolved the issue. It appears that if you do not activate either a paid license or the trial, it fails with the import because many of the features are not active until you enable the license and then update the XOA appliance. Once I activated the trial and then updated the appliance again, I was able to successfully import the backup. My hesitation with activating the license before importing the config as the licenses are bound and I didn't want to have to redo the setup if the config did not import. Again, it looks like I need to activate the license first and then I can import the config.

    load-balancer : Affinity to Host groups

    @olivierlambert In my understanding, Anti affinity tags only looks for the tags that are attached to the VM. For example: Datacenter 1 Host 1 VM1-1 Host 2 VM1-2 Datacenter 2 Host 3 VM2-1 Host 4 VM2-2 VM1-1 and VM1-2 should be able to migrate to Host 1 and Host 2. VM2-1 and VM2-2 should be able to migrate to Host 3 and Host 4. But VM1-1 and VM1-2 should never be able to migrate to Host 3 and Host 4. VM2-1 and VM2-2 should never be able to migrate to Host 1 and Host 2. With the current (Anti) Affinity tags, it will only look to the tags attached to the VM, so in the example it would be possible for VM1-1 to go to Host 4, if VM2-2 would be at Host 3 together with VM2-1. But if we could tag the hosts, it would not be possible for VM1-1 and VM1-2 to be on Host 3 and Host 4

    Managing vAPPs with XOA

    @olivierlambert +1 For creating vApps GUI in XO Reason: I recently had this configuration: VM1 - Delay 90 Seconds VM2 - Delay 100 Seconds VM3 - Delay 0 Seconds The VM3 instead of starting first, always starts last without fail. One difference I noticed is that VM3 is UEFI vs VM1 & 2 being in BIOS mode. I read elsewhere in the forum that vApps is the only reliable way to have an order. Maybe if we can somehow ensure that delay works, vApps will become less significant ?

    @Bytevenidos That's an interesting way of doing this, I'll have to remember it. I think the Fuel Ignition tool has a vhd output, it also produces both ignition and combustion parts for you. Worked pretty good on one test machine, but I need to go deeper into some of the other choices you can type in.

    @omatsei said: @omatsei I figured out the problem. There appears to be a bug in XO that requires you to check "Check Certificate" and/or "Start TLS", save the configuration, then uncheck them, then save again. Then it should work. The bug is that they're unchecked by default, but apparently they're enabled in the background. Thanks for that, I was stump on this one trying to reconfigure a new instance. This is defintely the case even with the latest auth-ldap (v0.10.11) plugin.

    UPDATE: its been 2 days and as I suspected the VDI is still waiting to coalesce at a length of 1, The GC does not seem to be cleaning it up. Does anyone have suggestions for how to remove this orphaned VDI and base copy. I'm not interested in saving the VM just cleaning up the remnants of the botched migration and removal.

    cant create a private cross pool network

    I am trying to setup the same VxLAN Private Network between two pools. I have been running XO from sources (commit 813514821) for a while now and encountered the same error "No PIF found in center". Therefore I updated to the latest commit 60ba5070c (still using XO v5) and now I was able to create a VxLAN private network that spans two pools without an error. I checked the networks for both pools and noticed that two networks were created per pool, so I was able to create it despite the error from the older XO version. However, using either VxLAN to connect two VMs in different pools doesn't work. Pinging a VM over that VxLAN in the same pool and host works, but pinging a VM from another Pool doesn't work. This is also the case when using GRE, Looking at the ARP Table, it seems that the VMs from different pool do show up, but as incomplete: [image: Screenshot From 2026-03-25 10-59-34.png] 172.30.0.10 is the VM in the same pool as work (172.30.0.30), 172.30.0.20 is the VM from a different pool. I manually set the MTU size in each VM to 1450 just to be sure. I have two pools with one server each. This is due to CPU feature mismatch. Each host is connected via a bond of two SFP+ Ports (which have default MTU 1500) to a switch that allows all VLANs. Using normal VLAN Networks does work with multiple pools.
