    Instead of forcing a reboot when changing the CPU or memory resources, the new settings could be "saved" and applied at the next possible time, e.g. when there is a reboot.

    @jkatz Thanks for that. I actually did something different but it worked. I don't know how but it is working. I used this in XO in Cloud Config [image: 1747138648336-a5f1ca37-802a-4ff4-bc4f-6c8ccaa3dc97-image.png] It worked [image: 1747138770858-e2666c29-8a03-41e1-879b-b6559b7f0bf2-image.png] Don't know if does it matter or not ( probably does) that I also entered this plugin into both files : cloudbaseinit.plugins.common.sethostname.SetHostNamePlugin @jkatz said in Cloudbase-init on Windows: You don't. That is lame. Wonder if domain join is possible with that...

    @Cyrille Thanks! Looking forward to using this, or something like this. It would be awesome if there was a Youtube demo getting started video for yaml or typescript!

    Weird Issue with NFS and Synology Hyper Backup

    It's important to understand the components you are using, especially on a software that you use without support/training In short: SR: a Storage Repository is access by your host/dom0/XCP-ng, and will be used to store ISOs and/or VM disks. It's running on a relatively old CentOS release (7.x), and will mount with some specific settings BR/remote: a Backup Repository where Xen Orchestra will send the backup of your VMs. Usually, Xen Orchestra runs (in XOA) inside a Debian 11 VM, with default NFS mount options (default: ie from the operating system point of view). It's hard to tell exactly the issue since you are likely using XO from the sources, so a XO that you choose to install on a system where we (aka "XO devs") have precisely 0 control on. Plus the NFS configuration part is also out our scope because it's not running inside our infrastructure too. That's a lot of moving pieces, that's why it's important to understand what you do so we can assist here the most efficient way we can

    There’s usually little to no reasons to expose any mgmt systems to internet in actual production environments. Especially if it’s strictly for internal mgmt purposes. XO is no exception. Not because the system would be unsecure, but you simply want to make any attack surface as small as possible. It’s just a best a practice.

    @ronivay Ok. In between jobs I did a new VM install of debian 11 and on it the XO community version. Version numbers now: xo-server 5.100.1 xo-web 5.101.1 I seem to have everything working again. Thanks for the help and tip. Now it seems really solved. If I come across anything else, which I don't think I will, I will report back. Greetings and thanks, Jan

    @Forza Hey - thanks for the input. It would be valid if I would reboot xcp host though. All this is happening on live xcp server which is problematic. It's no the end of the world but there has to be a way to debug it. Any tips on that?

    I came across this and the solution I upvoted i.e. renaming in pool view, works for me. However, I would like to +1 the idea @Forza put in his post. Cause organizing it all can get quite confusing. XOA being the excellent tool that it is, has this lacking. For those who come across this and feel discouraged? Do please mention your needs to the team here! They are VERY good at putting these kinds of things on the roadmap if there is a need/want for it! For myself, I use a spreadsheet to keep track of networks, hosts and pools. I do not rely on XOA alone. Which tbh is probably best practice anyway, in case a backup fails or the world blows up.

    You will need to download the desired ISO and use it to install the base OS. Then follow the official docs or use one of the available installation scripts. AFAIK, you should be fine with Fedora.

    What operating system do you have? Does it run on the same type of real server? If not. If VM it is Windows, you must reset (sysprep) or insert the hdd drivers. Acronis is a solution for that, or Dism++ and ImDisk to insert dirvers on vhd. If VM it's Linux, you don't have the correct disk name or partition ID, the boot partition must be redone. Reinstall kernel, in chroot with live CD, to solve the problem. For an easier process, I recommend Hyper-V -> VirtualBox -> XCP-ng. With VirtualBox you will have fewer problems when restoring the boot. And VirtualBox is much more compatible with XCP-ng.

    @olivierlambert Yes, it seems so. The switches are of different brands between RACs and since a year ago the datacenter was divided in 2 companies and we are not sure how they have organized the networks. Then I had another error but with "rescan all disks" on the host it was solved.

    You should be able to go to the network tab for the VM, click the network it's currently connected to, and then change it to the new one. If you have the management tools installed this can be done live, otherwise you'd need to shut the VM down.

    You can only if you select Cloud init.
