    @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.

    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.

    I am using USB-servers from SEH and Silex. Both of them are working. Silex can provide higher Performance - SEH is IMHO nicer for license-dongels, etc.

    @hannes Full backup interval (and Force full backup in the schedule settings) forces the job to do a full export of the disk and not a delta based on a previous one. It is not impacted by the retention as XO will always makes sure every chain has at least a full export at the beginning so that all backups are viable. Which means you will have multiple full backups, always one at the beginning, and, those that have been triggered by the settings above.

    Replicating to same pool storage

    @mauzilla I personally think having the CR job operate between 2 different pools is a better idea. I am curious though, are these servers located in the same physical location? If so why not try going with high availability instead of a CR job? https://xen-orchestra.com/blog/xenserver-and-vm-high-availability/ I haven't really done HA setups with XCP-ng before, so can't really speak to how good it is. But IMO CR and other backup jobs like that are more meant for geo replication and stuff like that (i.e. a disaster recovery scenario with some offsite XCP-ng host). Which is why I'm asking about location, personally don't see the benefit to CR if in the same physical location, I'd be more interested in HA at that point. This is just my two cents though.

    In general, it's easier to start on XOA (you can have a free trial with all features) to discover the ecosystem. Because XOA is more tested and also comes with an updater AND a way to give us access remotely to investigate a problem. So please deploy an XOA and report if it's better On which commit are you right now? Are you on the right version of node? (that's the questions you wouldn't have to answer if you were on XOA for example )

    Hi, This is an error regarding your certificates, which are self-signed. I'm afraid it's not related to XO itself. I suppose you can only use self signed certs in your context?
