    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.

    @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 !

    that's relatively easy to explain, only the naming is doubled: the backup-hdd are local disks raid1 in xcp-ng and there brought to xcp-ng as a local "vmbackup" volume, called vmbackup on xcp-ng-volume a disk is created with the name "backup_raid1_1tb" and connected as 2nd disk (xvdb) to XO [image: 1559158139829-ab68fa1c-49a8-4d15-afcf-ecdc8bcd9d04-grafik-resized.png] to make the disk available for backup-usage the disk xvdb is mounted via "remote" as a local now usage for backup-ng is possible, but the usage is not xo_disks

    I've replied on github. For sure the VMs should not boot. Of course the source vm has autopower on parameter becouse it's needed. The problem is big: DR copy of Second Active Directory server is up.... for sure I can expect AD problems in a while... [image: 1558999805954-724808f6-fc82-4487-9f87-4d0291fc3e92-image.png] Autopower on is set up: [image: 1558999897310-e4b71a2e-17cd-4e5f-a863-77f693249847-image.png]

    That's why I thought. NEVER enable base repo. If you want a package from their, just enable it during the yum install command line.

    Okay thanks. Note that with XCP-ng 8.0, it will be even easier to deploy XOA, directly from the host HTTP URL "mini website".

    Hi, Before reporting on issues when you use XO from the sources, you must always fetch the latest code available on GitHub. Because it's likely some issues are fixed since then. Please upgrade, and come back if the problem persists

    Okay so maybe there is a race condition somewhere with zstd (gut feeling, about premature EOF and using ZSTD). @johnelse what do you think? Do you need better logs?

    You need to use LDAP plugin to enable user login with XO. Please refer to our official documentation: https://xen-orchestra.com/docs/ldap.html

    This is an idea I had a long time ago (issue created in 2016), but due to the lack of request for this, it's not a priority. Obviously, if you have pro support, creating a ticket to get this could raise the priority of dev teams. Also, contributions are very welcome

    XOA supports CH 8.0, what's your error? XOA use another mechanism because CBT isn't really worth it (we use delta VHD instead, which is compatible even with XS Free)
