@kagbasi-ngc said in Using Multiple Servers in LDAP Plug-in:
@john.c Thanks for the suggestion - I'm exploring this option.
Oh, forgot a bit of follow up. You can also do something similar with Linux. Using the clustering software configured for failover and also a Samba server. The Samba server needs to be at minimum version 4.0, though to be supported with updates version 4.20 at minimum, to guarantee a long period of support either 4.21 or 4.22.
Though using the in box Samba server from RHEL 9 is best as its supported by Red Hat and is version 4.15. Though you can select another Linux distribution which is new enough to support at minimum the same version of Samba.
Then run the process of setting up the Samba Server as an Active Directory Domain Controller.
https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Setting_up_Samba_as_an_Active_Directory_Domain_Controller
Also with Windows Server based solution, you can add more servers to the AD Failover Cluster as required. So effectively you could even have 3-5 AD domain controllers, instead of just the 2 AD Controllers for redundancy.
@nuentes Same issue here. I have 6 Cyberpower UPSs all attached to different VMs for monitoring. Theyre all disconnecting randomly. This did not happen before I updated XCP in the last couple months.
And I know all 6 of them are not being physucally unplugged haha.
While I have no solutions for you, I hope this gains some traction as its severely messing with my Energy monitoring.
If you still want a way to know when it “disconnects”, I would recommend installing Powerpanel on the VM you’re using with the UPS, as it will log when communications are lost… However knowing when it happened won’t help you solve it unfortunately…
BUT if you have a mail server, you could set it up to send you an email when comms are lost
Hi,
Looks like we've got a similar problem on our newly deployed XOA (5.103.1).
There are approx. 500 tasks and some of them are "refreshing/changing places in the list".
Also, next to the "Tasks" button on the left inventory menu we can see "1" from time to time (screenshot: 03.PNG).
Haven't yet tried to clear it but would first understand why this is happening and maybe it can be perma fixed?

@DustinB Yeah, that's what I will try to remember to do next time. This is still worlds easier for me than trying to keep my ESXi hosts up to date was back when I used them. So very much better than that. I very rarely updated those at all.
@Forza There are various topics touching on how SMAPIv1 is a bottleneck here, eg: https://xcp-ng.org/forum/topic/9389/backup-migration-performance/8 - that's probably not the best example as it is also more on backups than migration!
Hi,
If you have support, you should create a ticket asking for the feature if you need. We don't have much request for that, but if nobody ask, it will never happen by chance
If you don't, you can still open an issue on our XCP-ng repo to ask for it, at least we'll have a trace of the request
@john.manning
Happy to hear that. I guess it was my fault - I edited the naming of the snipped pseudo vars:
OLDVBDUUID = xe vdi-param-get uuid=VDIUUID param-name=vbd-uuids
VDIUSERDEVICE = xe vbd-param-get param-name=userdevice uuid=OLDVBDUUID
maybe that way it's clearer for others that might find that helpful
Hi @KPS ,
The difference between these two settings is that sessionCookieValidity determines the time before a user gets disconnected if they did not check the "Remember me" option, and permanentCookieValidity determines this when this option was checked.
If you want to force users to be disconnected after 12 hours regardless of how they connected, I think you need to set both sessionCookieValidity = '12 hours' and permanentCookieValidity = '12 hours'.
However, this memory increase you're experiencing is intriguing, it is not an intended behaviour.
@Danp we have some cloud init ready templates like 5-10. We want only these templates on our pools. For now I want these templates to be shown in pooltest pool after that I will follow same to connect it with other pools. I have an NFS server and I saved these templates in that server on a specific path and now I want these on XO so that I can create VMs from these templates. I do not know how to configure further. Pl share any guide or tell me the steps so that I can achieve this. Thank you. I do not need ISO I will detach this NFS ISO library.
