    @poddingue I'm using XOA 6.2.2. Unfortunately not able to update at the moment. Which reminds me of another thing. Where is there release information for the XOA XVA itself? When I login to my account, there is only the download button but no information on what version it is. [image: image.jpeg] I would like to know when a new version is published and a changelog for it. When I import the current XVA it is tagged with 2025.12 [image: image.jpeg]

    I ran into the same problem with DR replicas. Ignoring VMs by tag would solve the problem, but so would excluding the ip address information.

    @bug-meister Ah. That's cloud-init's support for templating user-data. The issue is that with these templates you only have access to the info available inside the VM itself. No outside data can be used for templating unless it is somehow passed to the VM (inject a file, set xenstore values...)

    XO 6: Console updates?

    @olivierlambert I am imagining something like esxi / vsphere where I think it's their guest tool does a resize on window size change. I think I've done it with tightvnc where it can autoscale AND it can auto resize as well. Based on looking protocols like nx, spice, and tigervnc support it as well. Understood for the copy paste, is it possible to have another button in current UI next to the copy that is paste (understanding the current UI IS changing). All this button would do is send the keystrokes to the VM either from the text in the console copy field or from the clipboard (I've fine with ctrl+v, the clipboard to the multiline window).

    Unable to add host to pool

    @BradyS Probably this is due to incompatible BIOS settings, such as C states, turbo mode, etc. Run "xe host-cpu-info" on each host to compare the two host settings. Also, make sure the firmware and update levels are all the same as those can also affect the CPU masks.

    XOSAN is deprecated. Take a look at XOSTOR (there's a thread in this forum with a how to participate to the beta)

    Netbox Plugin: IP-address created always uses the "largest prefix" in Netbox

    @pdonias Yes, I was running a newer version than that but just to make sure I upgraded to 8068b83ffe58e6caed0cac5816ac2690479a9c41. Still the same problem, unfortunately. I'm not too sure if it matters, but there are VMs running in the pool that does not have an IP in a "smaller" /24 prefix. So if the prefixes 192.168.0.0/16 and 192.168.100.0/24 are in Netbox, there might be VMs using IPs other than the ones in the 192.168.100.0/24 prefix.

    Sadly, it's hard to know what happened without getting the errors you had (eg when you tell: "VM will not start" is very vague).

    @jivanpal Right; I simply meant you could start using these to track from this point onward. Also other options, like Cacti, MRTG, etc.

    @olivierlambert said in Managing different locations from one XO?: The code is open source but you need to install it and configure it yourself (if you are using XO from Github) OK, that makes sense.

    @Andrew it seems that the merge fails but the watcher still report progress ( which doesn't move) Can you see if there is an error before ?

    You can't add a host into another pool until it's "blank". It's hard to "merge" two pools together. So first, migrate VMs to the destination, clean the host and THEN add it to the pool.

    No need to update XCP-ng, we don't want to introduce a dedicated agent. It will rely on another mechanism. We'll publish about it before the end of this summer

    XO 5.72 Storage Maintenance

    @geoffbland Hi, thanks for the reply... That's what I wound up doing, installing XO from source on a Raspberry PI that I had. I used it to restore my XO image from backup, once I did that I had to restore all of my guests (12 of them total). I could never figure out how to get my SR out of maintenance mode, so I wound up creating a new SR and restored each backup to the new SR. All back to normal after restoring the backup. Thank god XO backup works so well! I learned the hard way that I need to move my XO disks to local storage before I enter maintenance mode for my iSCSI SR... Oh well, lesson learned!
