    @florent Thanks for your reply! We have started to migrate thousands of VMs, so disk transfer speed is important for us.. We will also do our detailed tests soon with different threads setting and publish it here. I think threads=1 is a good and logical default, but not efficient. Others might complain if you set it to a higher value. Configuration option would be a real good solution.

    Hello I'm pulling stats for all VMs to understand CPU usage. We're a bit behind the curve in terms of XO versions, but these questions hopefully are still relevant. If using a granularity of days, the interval is set to 86400 (understandably) but the endTimestamp varies. Running this on June 9th @ ~1740 we get timestamps for both Mon Jun 8 01:00:00 AM BST 2026 and Tues Jun 9 01:00:00 AM BST 2026. Does this average across the day? Why is the timestamp 0100? Why would there be different timestamps between VMs (all are running) and does that mean that the figures are misaligned in the results? These are retrieved via curl and a bash script, a bit hacky, but for clarity the request is: ++ curl -X GET -s -H accept:application/json -b authenticationToken=[[REDACTED]] -o [[REDACTED]] 'https://[[REDACTED]]/rest/v0/vms/[[REDACTED]]/stats?granularity=days' Really keen to know if we can control the start and endtime, as well as provide a manual interval, as well as the aggregation strategy (min, max, average). Are any of these possible? Lastly, is cpuUsage the percentage as per the dashboard, but averaged over all CPUs? Thanks so much in advance. James

    The Kubernetes CSI driver for Xen Orchestra just hit v0.4.0, and we want it on more real clusters before it reaches a stable release candidate. If you run Kubernetes on XCP-ng VMs, this is a good time to give it a proper workout. What's new in v0.4.0: Local-storage support Automatic pool-discovery fallback Kubernetes metadata now lives in Xen Orchestra VDI tags instead of the deprecated other_config. That change also drops the old requirement for Xen Orchestra 6.4 or newer, so the driver runs on more deployments now. ️ Read this before you upgrade. v0.4.0 is a breaking change. The Kubernetes metadata moved from other_config to VDI tags, so you must migrate before upgrading from v0.3.0. Do not upgrade in place: follow the v0.3.0 to v0.4.0 migration guide in the release notes, then move to v0.4.0. What helps us most is hearing how it behaves on your own setup: what works, what breaks, which storage backend you use, and which flavour of Kubernetes you run (k3s, full k8s, or something else). Edge cases on real clusters are the ones we don't see in our own testing. Where to report: start right here in this thread. It keeps everything visible to the community and lets others on the same setup jump in. If something turns out to be a reproducible bug, we'll move it to a GitHub issue on the repo so the team can track it to a fix. Release notes and migration guide: https://github.com/vatesfr/xenorchestra-csi-driver/releases/tag/v0.4.0

    Hi, There's no known mount issue at the moment. You can use SMB or NFS. XAPI is not able to push files, when you backup, an HTTP handle is created in the dom0, so it has to be fetched by something (XO in this case, or a proxy).

    @nicolai-comar said in Error when taking a snapshot in XO: xo-server 5.12.1 and xo-web 5.12.0 Those are really out-of-date. Please update to the latest available versions and try again.

    @busthead If you are importing a VM from your browser, you should not navigate away from XO as it will interrupt the upload. You can navigate to another page of XO though.

    I concentrated here, after upgrading my second server: Error: /lib64/libstdc++.so.6: version `CXXABI_1.3.8' not found (required by /root/xen-orchestra/node_modules/argon2/lib/binding/napi-v3/argon2.node) I've found circumstantial evidence that this depends on libraries found in newer gcc than is in the Cent OS 7 repo at this time. strings /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6 | grep CXXABI CXXABI_1.3 CXXABI_1.3.1 CXXABI_1.3.2 CXXABI_1.3.3 CXXABI_1.3.4 CXXABI_1.3.5 CXXABI_1.3.6 CXXABI_1.3.7 CXXABI_TM_1 so argon2.node requires something newer than centos7 can provide?! and upgrading gcc does the trick? I may have to try when I have more time. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/63374392/node-module-argon2-usr-lib-x86-64-linux-gnu-libstdc-so-6-version-cxxabi-1 Indeed here is Centos 8. $ strings /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6 | grep CXXABI CXXABI_1.3 CXXABI_1.3.1 CXXABI_1.3.2 CXXABI_1.3.3 CXXABI_1.3.4 CXXABI_1.3.5 CXXABI_1.3.6 CXXABI_1.3.7 CXXABI_1.3.8 CXXABI_1.3.9 CXXABI_1.3.10 CXXABI_1.3.11 CXXABI_TM_1 CXXABI_FLOAT128 and yes, I understand that XO doesn't target CentOS, but its our 'standard' right now.

    @bsodmike Increase memory to node.js as described in the docs under memory management. Adding mem to VM is insufficient in isolation, so my post above may have been misleading (sorry!).

    @olivierlambert I think that the default behavior should be VMs stay on the SR that they are on. If you are taking a host down and moving the VMs to another host why would you move the VM storage location, that defeats one of the reasons you use shared storage.

    Yes, that's the plan: involving community for feedback. But keep in mind we don't want to make a clone of XenCenter It's a web application, so it comes with some perks but also drawbacks from a heavy client (you are running in a browser with XO, and we don't want to change all web behavior without necessity to do it). Thanks for the feedback (so feature wise I think we are at parity level, UI it's another story I agree)

    It's not a matter of believing, it's a matter of providing a way to reproduce the issue It's really hard to fix something if: we aren't aware of the issue we can't reproduce it

    Not enough space means not enough space to coalesce, and therefore XO will prevent to continue and fill entirely your storage because of uncoalesced chains.
