    The problem with those providers is, that the additional IP is usually L3 routed to the physical hosts IP. A better solution would be to get a /29 subnet or similar, where the gateway is handled by the provider and then configure that subnet on a specific VLAN which is available on all hosts where you want the VM's to be able to run. More work for the provider, since they have to setup the gateway IP within the /29 subnet on their router and then configure the VLAN on the switchports towards your hosts, but its the best way to make the VM's agile.

    I was curious if there had been any updates to mounting ISOs via the API? Thanks.

    @sid It seems I have to get my hands dirty and take a deeper look into Terraform / OpenTofu. I am not shure how well the other folks at work partially will have fun working with commandline versus the easy to use XO web GUI. Tailoring down the CloudInit files used is not really the basic idea behind this. I was rather going the oposite way and install / configure the stuff we usually bake into our templates on the fly while generating the VM via CloudInit. Thanks a lot for all the responses !

    @d1rtym0nk3y Thanks for the feedback! This is actually something that we had in mind. It will probably have to wait for the next major version of XO, though.

    @dreday said in Cannot see virtual Machine consoles...: @FPIT I would say to further troubleshoot the limited connectivity issues first... A few things that jump to mind right away Does the host have a network gateway address set for the management interface? Are there any firewalls or switch port ACLs blocking traffic? This one is the least likely culprit 3) Is you host management configured to use DHCP?(based on the blank console, though it would not explain the connectivity issues unless DHCP is not providing all necessary information for the network) Option number 3 worked for me. I had initially configured my management console (with public IP) to use DHCP and the other port (with local IP) to use static. When I did reset all connections to use DHCP the consoles came up. Thank you thank you thank you! @DreDay and of course thanks @FPIT for raising the issue. #one

    @olivierlambert Thank you again for the answer! I was not using the right search criteria to find this part myself Changed the 'config.toml' file after searching my system (not an XOA but XO CE, so it was in another location then mentioned in the documentation) Restarted and just as expected the GUI was only available on the specified IP

    We are focusing first on getting something correctly integrated from XOA, it doesn't mean it will be exclusive to XOA. It's just we are first focusing on a completely "known" environment (XOA), but I think at some point we'll be able to provide manual setup for people who want to do it from the sources

    @julien-f Backup files check found no problems, so I tried to restore again and it works. No changes or updates in XO, no changes on vhd or json files (same dates and sizes). Only think I did was detach and attach backup repository (settings - remotes) which I tried before with no luck.

    In theory, static min is bundled in the template and you shouldn't use less than that. If you still want to do it, consider it as "advanced", and do it with xe

    @ruskofd is right. You should be able to use the cloud_network_config attribute to achieve this. The following code is untested but should launch a vm with a static IP. Please see the xenorchestra_vm resource docs and the cloud-init networking v1 docs for more details. resource "xenorchestra_vm" "static_ip_vm" { .... cloud_network_config = <<EOF network: version: 1 config: - type: physical name: eth0 subnets: - type: static address: STATIC_IP/24 gateway: GATEWAY_IP dns_nameservers: - 8.8.8.8 EOF } Let me know if you have any questions or issues using cloud_network_config, As for the blog post, the VM would have been assigned an ip address via dhcp (assuming the guest OS had cloud-init installed which was true for the VM template in the blog post).

    @jedimarcus said in Clarification on an Advanced setting: @eangulus With MaxCPU you can do the increase WITHOUT shutting down... I'll complete this with an example: create a VM with 4 vCPUs and Max vCPU = 8. you can now change the number of vCPUs from anything between 1 and 8 without shutting the VM down
