    @jkatz I ran into the same issue when trying to configure a network adapter with cloudbase-init. The documentation says that the MAC address value is optional but in reality it is required. In my case I want Xen Orchestra to choose a unique MAC during deployment, and I since I am deploying from a template, the NIC name is a known value. The fix that ended up working for me was to modify the networkconfig.py file in cloudbase-init so that the NIC name is required and the MAC address is optional. I ended up making some additional changes to allow for the network-config v2 format along with the existing v1 support and some additional logic to aid in setting the dns search domains (I can't recall if this was originally supported or not but I had issues getting it to work with the original networkconfig.py file) This file needs to replace the existing one that is installed in the C:\Program Files\Cloudbase Solutions\Cloudbase-Init\Python\Lib\site-packages\cloudbaseinit\plugins\common\ directory. To replace it you should make sure that the cloudbase-init service is stopped, then replace the file. Once this file is replaced, delete the pycache folder in the same parent folder as networkconfig.py - this will ensure that python recompiles this file on service start. Start the cloudbase-init service and confirm that you see a new pycache get created. I'm not a python programmer by trade so others may be able to point out areas for improvement but this ended up working for me and I wanted to share in case it could help others needing to deploy new servers without manually specifying a new MAC address. Below is an example network-config v2 format that works with the updated file. version: 2 ethernets: Ethernet 2: dhcp4: false addresses: - 10.20.30.10/24 nameservers: addresses: - 10.20.5.12 - 10.20.5.13 - 10.20.5.14 search: - intranet.domain.org - domain.org - public-domain.org routes: - to: default via: 10.20.30.1 Updated networkconfig.py file: networkconfig.py.txt

    @manilx I have proposed to the IaC team of Vates, a MCP Server for Vates VMS. Which can be used by GitHub Copilot or similar, if used when doing IaC etc.

    The initial job will take some time, but it will be fine after that. You can modify the job after getting your second or third run, to see how much data between each run is generated

    I'm not an English native speaker, it wasn't meant to be passive aggressive at all. I just told you that @julien-f already explained the initial reasons (also telling you we are aware of that fact). Also, XO 6 work is a major rework of the whole thing, and this will be taken into account on our redesign. A note, however: if someone can slip into your XOA, password, tokens and XAPI access are available in memory (regardless the fact you have encryption or not). In that case, a passphrase won't change anything. That's why we decided to remove any default password in the XO virtual Appliance template, so nobody still use default creds as a "known" entry point. And finally, as Xen Orchestra is fully Open Source, your contributions are very welcome

    Can you give some details? How do you imagine to work with that? Because it might be done via RunX at some point I think

    @sidsanders Hi, I gave a look at your issue, it seems that it is often associated with the ssl certificate missing the middle of the Merkle chain. here are a couple of explanations: https://serverfault.com/questions/693033/unable-to-use-builtin-ca-bundle-to-verify-godaddy-sha2-ssl-certificate https://www.npmjs.com/package/ssl-root-cas I suspect that the certificate you gave to minio was incomplete. Note that the chain of certificate should not include the root certificate, only all the certificates in the chain minus the root. Nico.

    Oh okay, so it's not a NAT issue then (thought XOA and the host were not together). Might be this issue then, please comment in the GH issue you posted to report you have the same problem edit: with your log too!

    @dr4s1l-0 @Dr4s1l-0 you will not see the config drive mounted in your system, cloud-init only mounts it temporarily very early on in the boot process, copies the found config files off of it, and unmounts it. Mounting it manually will just cause more issues. You can probably see it being mounted early on in the logs in /var/log/cloud-init.log Cloud-init has introduced a ton of bugs this year and has no documentation regarding them, it has been a nightmare to try and track down these issues - I have a support customer with the same issue on recent versions of ubuntu and I've gotten nowhere. At this point I think it's best to take it up with the upstream project, cloud-init - from the XOA/XCP perspective we're doing everything we can, resulting in presenting a properly configured config drive - any issue after that is the cloud-init package
