    @Forza said in Full backup - new long-retention options: Thanks for the quick feedback. Does it mean that the schedule's own retention is also honored separately in addition to the LTR? Yes, a backup is kept if it matches one of the retention criteria, either the schedule's retention or the LTR. (the backup is not duplicated, we just check for both criteria to know if we should keep the backup or not)

    @bullerwins It's a wonderful feature, you can have customized filters for VM, storage, Templates, and Pools. Combine that with using lots of tags and it makes larger deployments very manageable.

    Cloud configs allow {{name}}% substitutions. From my perspective (as a user), for how {{name}} is used in my cloud configs something like {{address}} would be identical. What is the intended use case for the IPAM functionality in XOA if it can't be used like this? Real question, not trolling

    Also note the text at the top of your screenshot: to continue you need to select a boot device. There might be a way in that menu (or partition creation submenu) to mark that created partition as bootable, or maybe you just need to highlight/select the partition under "used devices" before hitting "done"

    I would like some examples too. My latest (first) try gives me: alfcruz-adm@local.hcpa.ufrgs.br@volt-ampere:~/packer-plugin-xenserver$ packer build ./ubuntu-2004.pkr.hcl xenserver-iso.ubuntu-2004: output will be in this color.

    @encryptblockr hope to try the same with their even smaller "CORE" images. There is not an .OVA download but .xz downloads that when expanded have .img . https://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-core/22/stable/current/ubuntu-core-22-amd64.img.xz and https://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-core/22/stable/current/ubuntu-core-22-amd64+intel-iot.img.xz cloud-init seems to require experimentation and these small images boot quickly for me. Are you then following Fohdeesha's instructions?
