    @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.

    @tonyp90 I did file a feature suggestion, https://github.com/vatesfr/xen-orchestra/issues/4273 , but not a bug report. I'm using the xsconsole on the xcp-ng server itself in the few cases where I need to re-attach an SR. gitterdude created this issue in vatesfr/xen-orchestra closed Reattach SR icon is non-obvious #4273

    That would be interesting. This won't rule out everything but at least we might notice something different.

    Every HA or load balancing setup is too take it seriously. Consequences might be high, so use it only if we really know what you are doing.

    @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
