    I am running NVIDIA P40s on a DELL R720/R730 and a NVIDIA A2000 12GB on a DELL Optiplex 9010 in my playlab. Getting the GPUs to be accessible for VMs was quite easy: shutdown the XCP-ng host, install the GPUs, start the host again, activate the GPU in the advanced settings of the host in the PCI Devices section (“Passthrough enabled”). The host will restart at this point after displaying a warning. That's it – the GPU can now be assigned to a VM in the VMs advanced settings. I do use the GPUs for AI workloads under Debian though, so your use case might vary.

    @bleader Hopefully the palm print on my forehead isn't visible from where you are sitting. Of course the interface needs an IP address. In my defense, normally for something like this, I wouldn't put it on the bonded interface with all the trunked VLAN's for guest traffic (we don't give that one an IP) and it would go on the other bonded interface that isn't trunked and does get an IP, but these are test hosts and I didn't set up the other bond, so it is pulling double duty. I was able to set the IP's and get SDN working. Thanks!

    Also.. Thank you for taking a look at it and solving it so quickly, @florent It is a quite nice interaction when reporting bugs that they are looked at and triaged. Not saying everything needs to be a priority 1. But I do appreciate being close to the process. And if I can help make things better by reporting bugs, in a hopefully constructive way. Then I'll continue to contribute my way.

    Offering feedback that my implementation of the XO CCM (v1.0.0-rc.1) into my K8s cluster was successful; I validated that the nodes were labeled as expected. I attached screenshots from Rancher and the CLI. In my lab, I use OCNE 1.9 (Oracle Cloud Native Environment) on Oracle Linux 9.7. In my setup, I edited the kubeadm-config ConfigMap and on all nodes added the Kubelet argument for the cloud provider. I restarted the Kubelet on all nodes and then deployed the CCM via Method 1 per the documentation From my setup to set the cloud-provider: kubectl edit cm kubeadm-config -n kube-system apiServer: extraArgs: cloud-provider: external controllerManager: extraArgs: cloud-provider: external sudo vim /etc/sysconfig/kubelet KUBELET_EXTRA_ARGS="--fail-swap-on=false --cloud-provider=external" sudo systemctl daemon-reload && sudo systemctl restart kubelet [image: 1770418969929-rancher_xo_ccm_labels-resized.png] [image: 1770419178223-ocne_xo-ccm_pod.png]

    That's correct. There's no more updates, that's why you MUST upgrade to 8.2 (see https://xcp-ng.org/docs/releases.html#all-releases )

    @wade_solarch Short answer: try to avoid that. Back in the old XenServer days, you had to manually change the cpu feature flags so it would work at all. https://xcp-ng.org/docs/requirements.html#pool-requirements This confirms that you can't mix Intel & AMD in a pool https://xcp-ng.org/docs/requirements.html#pool-requirements This explains Heterogeneous pools a little

    VDI to coalesce number should decrease over time yes. If it's not, you might have a coalesce issue in your storage, check the /var/log/SMlog in the relevant host (master for shared storage, the host attached to its local storage otherwise). Rescan will scan for the LV/VHD files. But coalesce is automatically checked/started every 5 minutes. Coalesce can take time (depending on SR read/write and quantity to "merge"). Next releases will have a visible task for pending coalesce (next major XCP-ng release). Until then, you can do a ps axf | grep coalesce to see if there's something happening.

    Something is maybe interfering with websockets. Have you tried in private mode in case there's a problem with your cookies? If you have pro support, that might be the right time to open a support ticket so we can assist you remotely

    @olivierlambert XO and XO Proxy are using the same code and the same backup workers to run backup jobs. If there are differences in perf, IMHO, they come from the appliances themselves and/or their networks. Keep in mind that data flows from the host, via XO or XO proxy, to the remote storage. Maybe the proxy is further from the host and/or the remote regarding the network?

    Ok, I'll look into it some more. Right now, I'm just looking for XOCE to be hosted in the XOSTOR to avoid any issues with an NFS in my homelab going down. I have a spare M.2 NVME in each host that I can use, I'm pretty sure that my XOCE isn't very big.

    That's correct. It's the new "reference" for the following delta, so we need to be able to read the full when we restore the backup (or a file) or when we coalesce (when reaching the retention). That's why compressing the full isn't trivial.

    Wouldn't that support something like doesn't match pattern? I got similar monitoring, although i have a custom script that does the check but essentially i just look for status being successand if not, then alert.
