    @poddingue there is a notion of appliance too (group of VMs) https://docs.xcp-ng.org/appendix/cli_reference/#appliance-commands where you can start/stop a group of VMs, never tried it, doesn't seem to have a boot order in the vAPP neither

    @gcpeters4 said: @john.c This is a good idea as well. If the previous suggestion of trying to do a DNS round robin approach doesn't work, this may be my best option. Thanks for taking the time to provide your suggestion! By the way my suggestion is recommended best practice from Microsoft for their Active Directory software and/or technology. My suggestion will be more likely to work if your DNS servers and requests have issues with Round Robin configuration. Plus with my solution you can easily add more servers as domain controllers to the cluster, as required and use replication to keep them consistent and up to date.

    hello there, still XOA 6.3.3 here. since the last big XObackup & CR reworking, we have an annoying bug [image: 1778328477250-6db625da-2a61-4860-bc50-5c6adae0ae33-image.jpeg] This VM is 2.17Tb [image: 1778328523117-bc28b5ef-f37d-4bf9-b016-921309c17353-image.jpeg] how can be the KEY is 9.1Gb ? In fact the KEY size is good, but when retention of 10 points is obtained, the merging of last incremental in the first KEY point of the chain erase the size. So in our restore view, data sizes are all wrong, based on the sum of this key + 9 inc [image: 1778328703332-2e0a1587-365a-404f-9186-2b909605b3fa-image.jpeg] @florent could you do something about that ?

    @julien-f Thank you for explaining your plans. I am very eager to see the new XO 6! Perhaps a Christmas present for all of us? I just realised I have one more "peeve" with XOA. That is the console view which does not work well with Swedish keyboard layout. For example pressing Alt-Gr+2 to get at-sign '@' doesn't work. It also crashes the keyboard input so it doesn't release the alt-key. This always works correctly in XCP-ng center. The problem is in both Linux and Windows guests.

    Have you checked our guide to install Windows drivers? Check https://xcp-ng.org/docs/guests.html#windows If you still have issues, with your current XOA account in trial, you can open support tickets already so we can take a look remotely (https://support.vates.fr)

    It's a little different, but if in Xen Orchestra you go: Home => Hosts => <host> => Network there I can see my storage IP addresses comparable to that "IP Address Configuration" part. Except that here, all the networks are listed in the same list. Can you see if that's what you are looking for?

    Existing HA level is at VM level. It means, if the VM is down (or the host on the VM is running is down), it will be booted on a working host in that pool. For hyperconvergence, it's far from being a miracle solution. It costs a lot of thinking, planning and maintenance (and careful usage of it). Like HA in the end. So before asking for advanced features, it's good to think about what you really need.

    @olivierlambert Thanks, I tried running fstrim but it returned "the discard operation is not supported" on this NFS SR mount. I also tried running on SSD mounts which do support TRIM and they all returned the same message about "discard...not supported." The VM OS (CentOS 7.8) does support TRIM in kernel so not sure if xcp-ng or xenserver is the reason why the VM can't issue fstrim on the NFS SR mount or the SSD SR mounts.

    When you migrate a VDI to another SR, its UUID is changed. So it's like a "new VDI". However, there's an issue opened a while ago: https://github.com/vatesfr/xen-orchestra/issues/2896 We did not have a priority on this because not a lot of people asked for it. I think it could be a good optional feature in a job. snimmerjahn created this issue in vatesfr/xen-orchestra closed [Delta Backup] Avoid full export after VDI migrate #2896

    So far, I noticed this problem for three VMs. Each time I am trying to perform a backup with zstd compression through XO, the backup is marked as successful, but output XVA file is damaged (incomplete). The backup works fine for all other VMs, and I cannot pinpoint what is special about these faulty VMs.

    Hi, It failed because you changed the npm version manually. You can indeed re-deploy a fresh XOA, export the configuration and import it on the new one.
