    @vates-11940382 Hi All at Vates, I just wanted to say a big thank you for the MCP support that’s now landing in Xen Orchestra. This is definitely a genuinely forward-thinking move, and it’s going to have a huge impact on how IaC tooling interacts with XCP-ng going forward. MCP gives XO a clean, structured, read-only interface that modern AI-assisted tools (e.g Pulumi Neo, Copilot, Claude, Cursor, etc.) can understand natively. That’s a massive step toward making XCP-ng an AI-visible, AI-navigable platform - something no other virtualisation stack is doing yet. What’s even more exciting is the long-term implication: this kind of openness and clarity is exactly what hyperscalers have been struggling with internally. If Vates continues down this path, it’s not unrealistic that MCP-native infrastructure could start attracting interest from much larger players - whether as customers, collaborators, or contributors. The combination of: IaC MCP AI-assisted operations and XCP-ng’s open architecture Puts Vates in a very strong position for the future. Thanks again for pushing this forward. It’s a big deal, and it’s going to unlock a lot of possibilities for the community.

    @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.

    You can't, indeed, live migrate a VM from Intel to AMD (or vice-versa), for obvious reason (the VM will try to call Intel specific instructions after migrating on an AMD CPU, the result would be… a crash!) We had a similar migration ourselves (in our own prod), from Intel to AMD. And we decided to use Continuous Replication to make a first "backup" on destination (the full) while the original VMs were running (no service interruption). Then, we shut down the VMs, make another round of replication (delta, very fast) and then we booted on destination.

    @olivierlambert That socket issue was not what was causing the problem, I went through setting by setting and if I choose 2GB of memory for a VM I get constant reboots when using XOA. I was able to repeat the issue with a number of OSs not just RHEL 8 (and variants). I havent went through and compared the differences between XOA and XenCenter yet.

    @s-pam said in Multiple remotes in a backup - how is retention calculated: OK Great. So if I set retention to 10, it would keep 10 copies on each remote? Yes. it will keep 10 copies on each remote.

    In theory, Xen Orchestra got a protection against this issue (see https://xen-orchestra.com/docs/backup_troubleshooting.html#vdi-chain-protection ) So you have to find what's causing a long chain outside XO. You can check in XO, in the Advanced tab of the SR view, if there's VDI to coalesce. Or maybe very long chain for other reasons, there's a tool we made called xapi-explore-sr.

    Use CR instead of DR then, it will send only the diff to the other host, so it will be faster.

    @s-pam said in ova problems: @crazytoo Best way to be sure it to boot the VM using a live-cd, for example systemrescue-cd or ubuntu live-dvd. Then you can use tools like gparted to inspect your disk image from inside the booted vm. That's exactly what I advised to do earlier, but it seems it was missed the first time I think that's the best approach to understand what's going on in the VM disk.
