    So I actually posted these findings to the ZFSBootMenu Discussion github: https://github.com/zbm-dev/zfsbootmenu/discussions/787 Looks like they have tested ZBM against KVM but not Xen. Can Xen not handle a kernel being kexec'd?

Support tunnels should be open for both clients. Thanks! I deployed the patch on the new client, if it's ok I will do the second one after

    Indeed, but it's a bit old, and I would say for many reasons HVM with PV drivers is still the way to go for classical server virtualization mode

    Interpreting vulnerability scanners is a hard task. They are often screaming for "common cases", but remember XCP-ng is an appliance, so there are many cases where things do not apply. Happy to help you further via our pro support to answer in details your concerns

    @Danp So, that's the "best" way? Backup the meta-data with XOA, rebuild the OS drive - add the "new" server into XOA and restore the meta-data back to the new install? (I'm not doubting it is, just wanting to be sure we're understanding each other fully.) Seems straight-forward - but there's a ton of things I've done over the years that "seemed" pretty straight-forward that turned out to be anything but, and at least occasionally found I had no way back.

    @mmancina Hi you can try to call xe pif-scan host-uuid=<uuid of your host> , the NIC should appear after that.

    @bleader No, the opnsense box itself doesn't have wireguard (or anything else VPN-ish) running on it. It's mostly just a NAT with the normal variety of DHCP, DNS, ... services running on it.

    Using dynamic memory is known to be prone to causing occasional issues. Thanks for the feedback. Oh, by the way, regarding vTPM and snapshots, we finally established that it's fully supported by XenServer 8 and that the documentation was just out of date.

    Right, so yeah I did just that - disabled HA and have been keeping an eye on the logs as well as general performance in the env. Glad to know my actions align with your recommendations at least There are a couple of hosts that get a lot of these sorts of messages in the kern.log: Apr 25 08:15:33 oryx kernel: [276757.645457] vif vif-21-3 vif21.3: Guest Rx ready Apr 25 08:15:54 oryx kernel: [276778.735509] vif vif-22-3 vif22.3: Guest Rx stalled Apr 25 08:15:54 oryx kernel: [276778.735522] vif vif-21-3 vif21.3: Guest Rx stalled Apr 25 08:16:04 oryx kernel: [276788.780828] vif vif-21-3 vif21.3: Guest Rx ready Apr 25 08:16:04 oryx kernel: [276788.780836] vif vif-22-3 vif22.3: Guest Rx ready Am I wrong to attribute this to issues within specific VMs (i.e. not a hv performance issue)? I know one of the VMs that causes these is a very old centos 5 testing VM one of my devs use and the messages stop when it's powered down. Is there any way to easily associate those vifs with the actual VMs they are attached to? My google-foo failed me for that. Other than that, I noticed my nic firmware is a bit old on the X710-da2's I use so I'm going through and upgrading those with no noticeable changes. I'm fairly hesitant to re-enable HA without tracking down the root cause.

    @DwightHat said in Stuck in maintenance mode after joining pool.: When I try to look at the host in Xen Orchestra it just says "An error has occurred". Check to browser's Dev Tools console when this happens. It will likely contain some additional details. You likely need to check the logs to find out why you are encountering this issue. Many times the "stuck in maintenance mode" issue is related to an unmountable storage repository. https://docs.xcp-ng.org/troubleshooting/log-files/

    This post specifically: https://xcp-ng.org/forum/post/57441 The person had issues to speak in English but wanted to tell this configuration worked. You can use the xen_wdt backend to rely on a Xen operation to force restart the VM. I have no idea how it works on Windows.

    @lawrencesystems I think this is quite common when you need to test certain scenarios with multiple hypervisors (backup, migrations, etc.). You only need a couple of HVs with a few tiny running VMs. We have done this setup with nested esxi many times for testing purposes. And since e.g. Ubuntu and Windows work this way, the problem is probably specific to Debian (and maybe others?).

    @infodavid Finally, I follow an existing topic and configure nut-server on the hypervisor to access the ups via usb. I know that Olivier is not fully aligned with the fact that the host is modified but IMO it is an acceptable change on my XCP-NG host.
