    Hi @jshiells, Sorry for not answering earlier, Pierre wasn't working during the past weeks. I'll soon investigate on how the load balancer interacts with backups.

    @Pilow that probably would have been a good idea hey! [image: xoa_homeassistant-tile-example.png?raw=true] That's the example tile from dashboard-card-example.yaml. But it's Home Assistant. You make it look however you want right? Having the entities available to use is most of the challenge.

    UPDATE Now on XCP-ng 8.3 and XO from sources I had no problems with Windows 11. Had problem Ubuntu Noble Numbat 24.04 base template failing to boot from disk when cloned using Terraform. Changing the base template to "Other install media" resolved the issue, and the Terraform-cloned VMs work fine. EDIT: Also has problems with base template Windows Server 2025.

    Again thanks everyone. you can mark this as solved. The step I was missing was the config step. $ cd packages/xo-server $ mkdir -p ~/.config/xo-server $ cp sample.config.toml ~/.config/xo-server/config.toml

    @duxepu Ok, this is weird, I'm not able to reproduce that and I don't see how it's possible. Could you check a few things? from an admin point of view, at the bottom of the VM's advanced tab, please check that the user has Admin ACLs on the VM from the user's point of view, when you're on the snapshots tab, open the browser console (press F12 > Console tab) and check if there are any errors do you have this issue with all the users of all your Self Service groups or is it more specific? Thanks!

    Yesterday I updated to the latest sources and my backup ran successfully, so it appears that this issue is resolved. @carlosfrederico You'll need to switch back to the master branch before your normal update routine will work.

    @olivierlambert FYI turned out to be a networking issue that had nothing to do with the server itself. I'm still getting to the bottom of what exactly the cause was, and will update here once I do just in case someone else runs into this. Thanks again. And thanks for the awesome software. ! -Rob

    No, there's no need to upgrade VM tools when you upgrade the host. You can keep old tools, it will work fine.

    @dan2462 Did you get a resolution to your VDI issue? I have a similar problem as it seems hosts are locking up the VDI's on my shared iscsi storage and if they are shutdown and I try to boot them on an alternate host, I get the VDI not available error.

    You can have one job with 2 remotes. Or a job with backup and DR at the same time.

    @mrbaz Thanks for the detailed feedback! If XO had a way of pulling the user's group information and only allowing those in a certain group to have authorization to XO to have their accounts automatically generated, that would work too. That wouldn't be trivial to implement with our current plugin system. But as you said, a user that logs into XO isn't able to do anything without granting them permissions first. Also, if this is still a concern for you, you can disable user auto-generation in xo-server configuration by adding this line: createUserOnFirstSignin = false However, you'd then have to create the users manually before they can log in. the issue still stands that I can't put a user into a group or assign ACLs until after they have signed in for the first time. I agree but I'm not sure what a good solution to this would be. If we add an option to import all the users at once, it could mean importing a lot of users for some companies, even if many of those users would never actually log in later.

    @olivierlambert said in un-zstd .xva files exported with XOA?: Hi! Again, before starting to talk about technical solution, can you explain the use case? If you have zstd installed on your machine, yes. It's a tar with compression (gzip or zstd). But then it won't be trivial to assemble VM data (but you can exctract metadata easily!) I didn't really mean disassemble the .xva, but rather create an uncompressed .xva that has broader support/portability. The zstd command line tool seems to be able to uncompress it just fine. Thanks.

    Hey there! It's a good thing to start by reading our doc. If you enter "Password" in the search field, you would have find: https://xen-orchestra.com/docs/troubleshooting.html#recover-web-login-password As you are using Xen Orchestra into production, may I suggest to go for XOA with pro support at some point?

    @olivierlambert Maybe. Ive created a support ticket for now. Hopefully you can see if the problem is a configuration mistake on our end or a problem in XO. Thanks.
