    @florent I rebuilt my XCP hosting environment (everything is faster and bigger stuffed into one rack).... and this issue is now worse. The main changes to this new setup are 2x40Gb networking, faster NFS NVMe NAS, faster pool servers, more memory, much faster CR destination machine with ZFS. Running XCP 8.3 (March 2026 updates) and XO (master a2e33). Replication is leaving many attached to control domain every day with NBD connection set to 2. Changing it to 1 seems to resolve the issue (no more stuck to control domain).

    Version 1.4.0 is released: https://codeberg.org/NiXOA/system/releases/tag/v1.4.0 It includes significant changes and improvements, including: dedicated getting started section, migration to valkey, only needing to clone system, and helper scripts. the xen-orchestra-ce nixpkg now references the libvhdi nixpkg, and the core flake now references and pulls from the xen-orchestra-ce repo as an overlay. System (the user input flake) now uses the Core repo as an overlay, reducing the need to clone both locally AND allowing system to pull new updates and releases from core. XO, and libvhdi as needed. The next goal is: Make an xsconsole-like TUI Automate package updates for libvhdi and xen-orchestra-ce using CI/CD pipelines Submit libvhdi and xen-orchestra-ce as official nixpkgs

    Hi, We do not distribute XO via docker, so it's a 3rd party script/solution. Please report on the repo providing XO first, as explained in our doc: https://xen-orchestra.com/docs/community.html

    @bret_miller said in Upgrade failed: Command failed: npm uninstall -g --silent xen-orchestra: npm version: 6.14.5 does not satisfies ^4.6 For the sake of someone after me with this problem, based on it apparently looking for npm version 4.6.x, I did this: sudo npm install -g npm@4.6.1 Then re-ran the xo check which came out clean except for being on and old version. Then re-ran the upgrade which immediately re-upgraded to npm 6.14.11 and completed the upgrade successfully. My theory then is that the upgrade to 6.14.x probably happened on a failed XO upgrade leaving the system in a state that I could no longer upgrade. It now appears fixed.

    The whole point to have users from the sources on master is to help us to find issues we might missed during the development (because it's a branch that's made to run, we only merge into it when we are OK with the new code to add after multiple code review). That's a kind of a moral contract if you are using it from the sources: you don't pay for anything despite having all XO features for free. In exchange, you can report issue or ask for new features while being able to see a fix fast because immediately after a fix is merged, it's available on master. If you want stability and no surprises at all (let's say to run XO in… production ) then XOA is the way to go

    @olivierlambert said in Migrate button enhancements: Hi! I think we fixed the migration issue in XOA latest. What version are you using? I'm running XOA 5.56.0 / latest channel. You are right. It is indeed fixed when doing migration from the VM list view: [image: 1615357002887-54ba8d18-bfe1-401d-983a-88f852edabac-image.png] But not from within the VM view: [image: 1615357051953-895c414d-1709-4a43-be95-316b038b05cd-image.png]

    Stupid question - do you typically host Xen Orchestra ON your XCP-ng host, or elsewhere?

    I am using a Thinclient for my XCP Servers. Real small and cheap (if it is used) HP T620 with a 64G M2 SSD and 4 GRam Quadcore AMD CPU. To backup some VM i use a external USB3 HDD. It is running very nice and smoth. Power is between 5Watt an 20Watt excluding the USB Harddrive. My coutumer had mostly two Servers and a Thin client. my own Thinclient is used as a server for FHEM Homeautmatisation

    Having the same issue here with metadata backups, tried Backblaze bucket and Amazon. Also the vm backups to S3 are failing usually with VDI_IO_ERROR(Device I/O errors) or "Error calling AWS.S3.upload: socket hang up" (but working to NAS). Is there somebody who made backups to S3 to work somehow?
