    @olivierlambert I have 9000 everywhere on the network so i set the MTU to that. I did notice in a previous POC that I used 1500 in XO/XCP-NG though.... Thoughts? How can I recover, just delete /re-install the hypervisor and reconnect?

    @ferrao Yes it is. At the end the task disappears unless there is an error / failure.

    Thanks for your feedback, we'll discuss internally if there's any other possible approach (and I'm not sure).

    Hello, I suggest you look also for Packer to build ready to use VM templates, with cloud-init, guest tools, and the softwares you'd need. There's a blog post for this https://xcp-ng.org/blog/2024/02/22/using-packer-with-xcp-ng/.

    The easiest way to guarantee it is to depend on a local resource (local SR or ISO).

    If you proxy (or reverse proxy) any stuff, yes, you need to have a fixed address for the proxy.

    Yes, that's the issue, the max vCPU in Advanced tab. It's probably at 42 while you only have 32 physical CPUs. Therefore, the VM won't boot. See an example screenshot: [image: 1726217639918-8728f260-893b-4601-b8b2-43b39b9d6806-image.png]

    Hi, We offer air gap services to get you pre-bound XOA without the need for any Internet connection Otherwise, the workflow you used works too (configure XOA with a connected env and then export it). See https://xen-orchestra.com/docs/airgap.html for more details. Also, you can use our airgap deploy script in here: https://xen-orchestra.com/blog/xen-orchestra-5-95/#️-air-gap-features

    @rongage I don't know if anyone else has it working correctly on CentOS Stream 9. I know that it works on recent versions of Debian and Ubuntu, so why not try one of those?

    With classical export (ie VHD and without NBD) you cannot "resume" a backup. Now it's possible (technically with NBD) but it's not done (yet). But we improved a lot the retry vs the original backups in VHD.

    In theory, like thinking on top of my head, an agent in the physical machine that will be able to replicate the VM files in the same format than the XO backup, with also the "machine metadata" (CPU, RAM etc.). Then, if something goes wrong, you could restore a backup as a VM from the real machine.

    My apologies @Danp , I had misunderstood the comments on the other commands in that KB article. Good news, things are working, but it didn't seem like they would be. xoa run npm i -g --unsafe-perm https://xen-orchestra.com/xoa-updater.tgz Seemed to work. I was then able to run systemctl restart xoa-updater and xoa-updater --upgrade. After the upgrade command, this is the feedback: xoa:xoa$ xoa-updater --upgrade stable channel selected Downloading packages... xen-orchestra 5.95.2 . ok ✔ xo-server-telemetry 0.5.0

    @billcouper I 100% agree with you. I will add to this that it would be amazing if RX and TX nic/SFP errors could be made visible in the interface as well. reason why i mention this is we recently had a problem on one of our hosts storage links where due to a dirty fiber we had some problems (vm's going to read only, crashes, very poor IO). Due to how dom0 sits as a VM we could not get stats off a nic using ethtool or snmp. It took WAY to much trouble shooting to figure out that our issues was caused by a dirty fiber on the servers side. the more native/local self monitoring/alerting xcp-ng and XOA can do, the better.
