    @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.

    Hi @BenjiReis, the certificate procedure I posted yesterday isn't quite right and although the plugin will enable, TLS will not negotiate. My openssl.conf defaults to adding x509v3 attributes that breaks the TLS negotiation process. Here's the correct procedure on Rocky Linux 9. Should work for most other recent Linux flavors. Create a temporary directory to work in, and copy your OS's openssl.cnf file into it. Edit the [ v3_ca ] section so it only has the following 2 entries: subjectKeyIdentifier=hash authorityKeyIdentifier=keyid:always,issuer Now create the CA (run all commands in your tmp directory). I am also now using 4096 bit strength: openssl genrsa 4096 > ca-key.pem openssl req -new -x509 -config ./openssl.cnf -nodes -days 365000 -key ca-key.pem -out ca-cert.pem ** The server certificate step in the previous post is not necessary so just skip it. Now create a file called client_attr.cnf and put the following entries in it: subjectKeyIdentifier=hash authorityKeyIdentifier=keyid,issuer Now Create the client certificate: openssl req -newkey rsa:4096 -nodes -keyout client-key.pem -out client-req.pem openssl x509 -req -days 365000 -set_serial 01 -in client-req.pem -out client-cert.pem -CA ca-cert.pem -CAkey ca-key.pem -extfile ./client_attr.cnf The ca-cert.pem and client_cert.pem should now conform to the correct x509 format that will work with XOA and hence cross-server private networking. Sorry for the incorrect procedure, it was a late night Cheers.

    @olivierlambert Without any change in the configuration, the backup now reports to be successful. Next step is to check whether the backups will restore correctly. The mystery still stands - what was wrong previously.

    This is the date get from XAPI. If it was migrated from another host, you have the first time it was visible for this XAPI.

    I thought I did that. Oh I see whats happening. My cold moves are freaking out. The first time, I restarted the toolstack for the server I was working on the # of tasks dropped by 50% or so. as soon as I tried my cold move of a VM again, im up to 50-60 tasks again. Going from Xen 7.1 to XCP 7.6. and a Xeon 2630 V3 to a 2620 V0. Which I know is a bad idea, hence the cold move.

    You have a transparent proxy, it does not hide its identity, so web resources see that the request is not coming directly from the user but from the proxy. In addition, the real IP address is also visible, so there is no anonymity. Usually, educational institutions use this type of server to filter incoming and outgoing content and cache information. It's better to use thailand proxy, which will encrypt you from the inside.

    Not sure yet if it has to do with me deleting one template to try... However, the duplicated templates have disappear after the update of XOA to 5.74.3! Maybe a restart of the service would have achieved the same!? At the end, it seems to come from XOA rather than the pool. I suggest to remove and add the master from the server settings to see if this does not clean up something in the cache/DB on XOA...

    @florent Yes, thanks! We have very limited control over rsync at our end (as it's running within a Synoloy NAS) - I think we probably have to just live with large transfers for now - whilst looking at spit files / VHD's as the way to go in the future. Thanks again!
