    I have configured OIDC-Plugin to integrate PING Federate which will connect to AD for user and group mapping. AD authentication and PINGID Token working as expected but getting Internal server error at last with below cli logs in XO Expected values to be strictly equal: actual - expected 'undefined' 'string'

    @jkatz I ran into the same issue when trying to configure a network adapter with cloudbase-init. The documentation says that the MAC address value is optional but in reality it is required. In my case I want Xen Orchestra to choose a unique MAC during deployment, and I since I am deploying from a template, the NIC name is a known value. The fix that ended up working for me was to modify the networkconfig.py file in cloudbase-init so that the NIC name is required and the MAC address is optional. I ended up making some additional changes to allow for the network-config v2 format along with the existing v1 support and some additional logic to aid in setting the dns search domains (I can't recall if this was originally supported or not but I had issues getting it to work with the original networkconfig.py file) This file needs to replace the existing one that is installed in the C:\Program Files\Cloudbase Solutions\Cloudbase-Init\Python\Lib\site-packages\cloudbaseinit\plugins\common\ directory. To replace it you should make sure that the cloudbase-init service is stopped, then replace the file. Once this file is replaced, delete the pycache folder in the same parent folder as networkconfig.py - this will ensure that python recompiles this file on service start. Start the cloudbase-init service and confirm that you see a new pycache get created. I'm not a python programmer by trade so others may be able to point out areas for improvement but this ended up working for me and I wanted to share in case it could help others needing to deploy new servers without manually specifying a new MAC address. Below is an example network-config v2 format that works with the updated file. version: 2 ethernets: Ethernet 2: dhcp4: false addresses: - 10.20.30.10/24 nameservers: addresses: - 10.20.5.12 - 10.20.5.13 - 10.20.5.14 search: - intranet.domain.org - domain.org - public-domain.org routes: - to: default via: 10.20.30.1 Updated networkconfig.py file: networkconfig.py.txt

    @olivierlambert Has the problem been confirmed ? I can try to pinpoint where the always-full replications were introduced, but more time efficient to do it on a machine that is fast do replicate, not the one that now takes 2.5 hours (a few minutes for the diff before it borked starting at the backup made 6 Sept)

    @manilx I have proposed to the IaC team of Vates, a MCP Server for Vates VMS. Which can be used by GitHub Copilot or similar, if used when doing IaC etc.

    @olivierlambert I blew away the docker container and did a fresh build of XO from source on a *buntu box. Issue resolved itself with that. Must be a bad build in the docker.

    You can't login to our servers with your source version (from Git), you must download the virtual appliance. If you can't access https://xen-orchestra.com internally, then, indeed, you won't be able to register it in the end. But if you managed to clone it from Github, you have some access to outside

    @KPS You can use xo-cli --list-objects type=VM. Also you should only get the backup logs once and join with the VM list, because backupNg.getLogs is heavy.

    @olivierlambert Yep, thanks. OP edited to direct link to XOA NTP documentation for those who need that. There was no clear distinction in my mind. Apologies for any confusion caused.

    @SpoonyLove @olivierlambert For usb passthrough we are using USB redirector over network For anything storage related we use something like this: mkdir /adm/passSR passUUID=`xe sr-create name-label="Direct access SR" name-description="Direct acces to hdd with simlink" type=udev content-type=disk device-config:location=/adm/passSR` ln -s /dev/sdb /adm/passSR/sdb xe sr-scan uuid=$passUUID xe vdi-list sr-uuid=$passUUID Remember to replace /dev/sdb with your device.

    Participating on the forum is a totally acceptable form of contribution. And to be clear: you have the choice. The choice to do nothing, or to help the project to grow. It's really up to you Freedom of choice is great! Everyone can contribute, spread the word and advocate for our solutions. And believe me, if everybody does, we stand a chance against those juggernauts (VMware for example). Also, you have my words, and I'm not afraid to tell that publicly: every $ we make is 100% re-invested into our projects. No big VC nor investors asking for insane ROI.

    Thanks! I tried the ESC option but could never get it to work. I thing the UEFI is set to 0s waiting time for boot options, which makes it tricky to time it.

    @sgroel Curious. Are all the NICs the same on the existing pool hosts as well as the new host you add? Do all hosts have the same hotfix levels and the same overall hardware architecture? Seems odd as I ran servers this way for years. Maybe also look at the network switches to make sure they are all configured correctly. Finally, any clues in the /var/log files?

    @Darkbeldin I checked the xensource.log on the server and found the error message "failed with exception Server_error(INVALID_DEVICE, [ autodetect ])" during export, similar to the post here: https://xcp-ng.org/forum/topic/4319/invalid_device-autodetect-during-backup I checked the XO dashboard health and found 256 "Pool Metadata Backup" VDIs attached to Control Domain. Not sure how or why the "Pool Metadata Backup" got stuck attached to Control Domain but I guess it has reached the 256 limit. I "Forget" all of them and full backup seems to be working now. For the record, it wasn't anything to do with snapshots. The VM was OFF so I guess it doesn't need to take a snapshot before transfer hence the log doesn't mention snapshot.
