    Hi! I've had this pool setup at home for quite a while now, more than 3-4 years, and had made a few upgrades and adjustments to host machines. For some reason though, some old virtual machines still shows up in the xsconsole, even though they are not present in the XOA nor in the servers own management interface. How can I delete these from showing up and clean it up a bit? [image: 1778500173087-screenshot_20260511_134238.png] Not present VM:s: Before Ubuntu Update Blank Windows 11 Kali Linux The rest is still present on the system. How do I fix this?

    @gcpeters4 said: @john.c This is a good idea as well. If the previous suggestion of trying to do a DNS round robin approach doesn't work, this may be my best option. Thanks for taking the time to provide your suggestion! By the way my suggestion is recommended best practice from Microsoft for their Active Directory software and/or technology. My suggestion will be more likely to work if your DNS servers and requests have issues with Round Robin configuration. Plus with my solution you can easily add more servers as domain controllers to the cluster, as required and use replication to keep them consistent and up to date.

    @Pilow Hi, Thank you for your reporting! It should be fixed in the next version we are thinking releasing this month if no surprise happens. There is a big refactoring on the clean part which handles metadata (and size) updates.

    Hi! That's is possible, you just need to shutdown all VMs using disks in there. Then, 4 steps: 0. Find the PBD currently connected to this SR via xe pbd-list Save the PBD information somewhere (xe pbd-param-list uuid=<PBD UUID> Unplug and remove the PBD (xe pbd-unplug and xe pbd-destroy Recreate the PBD by just changing the information using xe pbd-create In short, the PBD is like the "cable" between your host and your SR. Removing it won't remove any actual data, just the link between them. If you recreate it, and replug it, you'll find everything back

    It doesn't work like Citrix patches. Xen Orchestra will send a XAPI command to the host, that will in fact do a yum update command. The result is returned to XO and it will display available updates. We got a system using the best mirror for you: https://xcp-ng.org/docs/mirrors.html#original-mirror

    Hi, Please open a support ticket, that would be easier to assist (you can also open a support tunnel so we can remotely access your XOA to investigate faster, see https://help.vates.fr/kb/en-us/9-xen-orchestra-appliance-xoa/16-create-a-support-tunnel ) edit: don't forget to go in XOA/Support then doing an XOA check, see https://help.vates.fr/kb/en-us/9-xen-orchestra-appliance-xoa/17-xoa-check

    @station-already hehe glad you got it figured out Indeed, management interface changes are pretty "violent" in terms of how much they change and interrupt, so a reboot helps quite often - same for changing the virtual adapter/PIF assigned to a VM - alway a good idea to reboot the VM

    This means your NFS server doesn't support NFSv3.

    This is not exposed in XAPI, so it might require to write a XAPI plugin.

    @mrnaz look for the (first) error in your terminal where you execute the script to upgrade. Probably you need to upgrade the yarn or node version.

    @mauzilla I've done so that I have two separate backup jobs incremental every 4 hours, with exception on weekends. Retention usually 8 days weekly full backups, zstd compression, every Sunday night. This way we have a separate backup from the incremental chain. We also are able to do more maintenance jobs on the nfs server etc during the off hours on the weekend.

    @olivierlambert Thanks, We had been looking at Terraform so I guess we'll keep heading down that path for the time being.
