    Is a centralized XOA server "managing" two remote Proxy-fronted XCP clusters supported with the SDN Controller Plugin? We are looking to deploy an architecture similar to this blog post from 2022: https://xen-orchestra.com/blog/xo-proxy-a-concrete-guide/

    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

    New releases! Terraform Provider Xen Orchestra v0.40.0 This new release allows users to import VMs directly from Xen Orchestra into Terraform without recreating it or modifying manually the Terraform state. There is still some drift when importing it, but nothing that changes the real state of VM and we are currently on it! https://github.com/vatesfr/terraform-provider-xenorchestra/releases/tag/v0.40.0 Golang SDK for Xen Orchestra v1.11.0 v2 The network service is now available from the v2 client! You can now create, get and delete your network directly from it! v1 & v2 The template value in VM struct params has been fixed, We can now get the template id directly from it. https://github.com/vatesfr/xenorchestra-go-sdk/releases/tag/v1.17.0

    @olivierlambert could this error be more verbose? I think this error should say: Cannot write file .keeper_uygbivt5lv on remote <whatever the remote name/address> NFS is mounted but XOA cannot write to mounted dir. This happens in NFSv4 as default when sec=sys on NFS server (that is the default).

    @olivierlambert @olivierlambert said in OVA import failing: Keep in mind the file has to flow from your browser toward your XOA, then to your XOA to your host, which might use another network share itself. If your XOA could mount the place where you have your OVA directly, you could use upload-ova utility (see https://github.com/vatesfr/xen-orchestra/tree/master/%40xen-orchestra/upload-ova#usage ) to send them directly. Going to look into that, thank you.

    @julien-f is aware of the problem, he's working on getting proxy fully independent on the network connection. Can you check why the connection between XOA and your proxy is interrupted? Is there any reason you have in mind?

    I said that for both statements: It's not Xen fault if it doesn't work on top of KVM, but Xen accessing some virt features that aren't correctly exposed by KVM. I'm not blaming them, nested virt is a mess to properly code and test. Consider this as experimental everywhere. I missed the "for me". But it's also vague, I don't know your constraints/what do you want. Also, I think I heard that some users made it work with Virtualbox, but it might also depends on your hardware. As I said, nested virt is a mess, and sometimes, some hardware works better than others (or even some VBox versions).

    We don't have any other report of this issue elsewhere. Double check you are on the completely latest XO version, and alternatively, try with XOA on latest channel.

    Yep, there's basically nothing. It's more SMAPI related than XAPI in the end.

    @olivierlambert Thanks for the response. It does make sense since I made some changes to the network a few days back.

    @akurzawa said in Wrong timestamp on snaphot: Hi It'a an important to know exact time of vm and snapshot - eg when recovering for an example a Active Directory or sql database. When doing so, someone can believe that restores the data from {the time visible in name}, because can be unaware of possible offset of zulu time. You already have the exact time If you aren't aware of an ISO standard format date, it's another story. But this is really standard and universal way. I suppose you meant "misinterpreting the snapshot time" which has NOT the same meaning than "incorrect time".

    @badrAZ w00t! Thank you! I look forward to the update. BTW, I went ahead and threw my updated XO CE into "production" here at home where it runs 10 VMs. So far no other issues seen by me. XCP-NG/XO.

    Have you read https://xen-orchestra.com/docs/delta_backups.html ? Use normal backup it will work. Or stick with delta and advanced option, a full every 1 backup.
