    Did some more testing over the weekend and got some cleaner logs that are fully matched up. We ran the command 'journalctl -u xo-server -f -n 50' and see these to entries: Nov 15 14:26:10 xoa xo-server[552]: 2025-11-15T19:26:10.935Z xo:vmware-explorer:esxi INFO nbdkit logs of [WE-DS] WE-FS1/WE-FS1.vmdk are in /tmp/xo-serverGKTRzl Nov 15 14:26:10 xoa xo-server[552]: 2025-11-15T19:26:10.943Z xo:vmware-explorer:esxi INFO nbdkit logs of [WE-DS] WE-FS1/WE-FS1_1.vmdk are in /tmp/xo-serverCFf19t The log files were fairly large, wouldn't allow me to attach them, so i have provided them in a zip on dropbox if you want to take a look. From what I can pick out in the log files it appears that the transfer from VMware is complete or so it looks that way. After that I ran these two commands against the import tasks: xo-cli rest get tasks/0mi0ogg5f xo-cli rest get tasks/0mi0ogg5g The output for those is also attached. The one thing that stands out is in the "importing vms 17" is that WE-FS1.vmdk shows 'success' and WE-FS1_1.vmdk shows 'pending' Finally, I attached the logs from the host as well. I'm not seeing anything that jumps out at me as being wrong there either.

    @Joe_dev I have a MF unit with similar igpu. I was not able to get it working under any virtualization platform. There is something about amd igpu that makes passing it hard. I believe some have had it working under proxmox with custom kernel and video bios. I never bothered trying all that out so i just gave up on the unit.

    @Bambos A timeout error means that the host did not reply in the expected delay, which, if I'm remembering correctly is 5 minutes. I suspect a problem on your host but we will take a look further on your support ticket.

    @techknowbabble said in GRUB waits for confirmation: What did finally work was re-installing with the 'no serial' option and everything seems to be working as expected now. I only have a handful of XCP-NG installations under my belt but I wonder if this is a known bug or if anyone else has had a similar experience. It's not something I've ever seen before and I've done quite a few installations but I can think of some possibilities as to why something like that might fix the problem. My best guess is that there's something built into, connected to, or otherwise in your system that looks like a serial port (maybe even a real serial port) that spits out a character or two into the system at boot time, confusing GRUB and stopping the normal boot process. The bad KVM I mentioned before was doing something like that, throwing a bogus keypress into the system at boot time.

    @plaidypus Ah gotcha, this makes sense. I second scaling out instead of up. If you're getting new hosts, I'd also keep in mind newer CPUs do have much higher per core performance (not sure what your current stuff is), so you also might be able to get away with less vCPUs and lower likelihood of NUMA spanning. Either way though I think scaling out is the better direction to go.

    @R2rho yeah, there are Supermicro systems with AM5 which can handle a decent amount of load, like based on the h13sae-mf, like: https://www.supermicro.com/de/products/system/mainstream/1u/as-1015a-mt (with less depth) Seem to be stable, but we have a small issue regarding onboard graphics ATM: https://xcp-ng.org/forum/topic/9976/black-screen-after-install-on-supermicro-h13sae-mf-with-ryzen-9950x/3?_=1734419502978

    Thanks for letting us know, and I'm happy you have thing working nicely now. I think to mark this as resolved you need to convert your original post as a question, and it can then be marked as resolved. I actually cannot do it myself, I think only a few people have the permission to do it for others at Vates.

    @dinhngtu said in Issues with XCP-ng Windows PV Tools 9.0.9000.0 Testsign Pre-release: With 9.0.9000.0, you could sometimes run into this issue if you reboot too early after installing. This will also be fixed in the next release. I just did two more tests and the boot-up failure happened both times. On the last test I waited some time (like 30 to 60 sec) after the driver installation before rebooting (using Windows restart from the start menu). Even though I waited before rebooting I still encountered the boot-up problem: Windows is spinning on this screen and doesn't finish booting: [image: 1732291273907-ef30a370-5897-41e6-a0f1-41fa3720dacb-image.png]

    I wasn't aware of this plugin even existing (thanks for the discovery). I'm not sure it's really maintained, but we have a clear goal of getting one officially maintained anyway.

    @olivierlambert Which one, powershell or WAC. They are kind of one in the same when you look at how WAC makes the calls to do the work, there's a button to reveal the powershell behind the button clicks so you might be able to get both at once. But WAC draws nice graphs and gives us a GUI to get the work done. Yes I know, real Admins don't use GUI. Whatever, AI will eat our jobs anyway, just trying to stick it out another 9 years at this point. When I get time, I'll still probably take a swing at this task for WAC, because to me this would be valuable. Big learning curve though. Now if MS would finally add Group Policy to WAC and fix some of the DHCP and DNS features that are still in preview...

    I'm not aware of such problem it's like the VM was kept in limbo. You did the right thing with your commands.
