  Great projects have great documentation. Is XCP-ng a great project?

  @Patrik48 Just to make things clear: there is no documentation (or project of documentation) that would be restricted to those who subscribed to pro support.

  Since ZoL 0.8 is here, supporting O_DIRECT, everything might just work out of the box. We'll try it and report

  Don't be sorry: there is some tool designed to do something, and other for other things. You don't expect that your everyday car will fly. It would be the same thing if XO was working in the browser only. We made that choice (to have a server part) because we knew we'll push for features requiring to run 24/7.

  Here are my results on different versions of Windows Server (using Standard Edition). I used the same procedure indicated above. For each system, I update all the operating system to last version possible before installing PV drivers (thanks optic fiber ). Windows Server 2012 R2 Core : successful install, VSS seems good (stable state and no error), soft shutdown and reboot OK. Windows Server 2012 R2 Desktop Experience : successful install, VSS seems good (stable state and no error), soft shutdown and reboot OK. For both Windows Server 2012R2, they require more reboot, especially one more for the storage PV drivers after the installation of network PV drivers, but it works. Windows Server 2016 Core : successful install, VSS seems good (stable state and no error), soft shutdown and reboot OK. Windows Server 2016 Desktop Experience : successful install, VSS seems good (stable state and no error), soft shutdown and reboot OK. I don't know if it's very useful to test on Windows Server 2008/2008 R2 since the extended support will reach his end of life in the next January. But I can provide tests if required.

  You can boot a VM on PXE by selecting the right boot order (enabling "Network" in boot order in XO for example) Then you need to setup a PXE server, you can fine various guides by googling "PXE server setup", eg this one)

  @redalert11 Thank you, I can now add my AEOTEC Z-wave key to my jeedom VM. But this key doesn't appear in my debian 9 VM. On my server : lsusb Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0424:2514 Standard Microsystems Corp. USB 2.0 Hub Bus 003 Device 003: ID 0658:0200 Sigma Designs, Inc. Bus 005 Device 002: ID 10d5:5a08 Uni Class Technology Co., Ltd Bus 005 Device 003: ID 0624:0248 Avocent Corp. Virtual Hub Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 005 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 006 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Sigma Designs is my USB key I want in my VM. Thanks to @redalert11, I enable the passthroud in XC-ng center. I attach the Sigma Designs key to my Jeedom VM (under Debian 9) I start the VM. lsusb Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Bus 002 Device 002: ID 0627:0001 Adomax Technology Co., Ltd Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Sigma Designs is missing. Any Idea ? (tried with Debian 8, and Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, Windows 10 same problem). But no problem when I passthrough the same aeotec key on a Debian9 vm under vmware

  Depends on what you expect about production ready. Eg this driver is used since 2y in XOSAN without issues. But we support XOSAN ourselves, not the driver alone.

  Well, first you can simply tell which driver and give a link to the upstream sources and we could consider providing it as an alternate driver directly in our repositories for everyone. To build it yourself, there are several solutions: Use this template: https://github.com/xcp-ng-rpms/kernel-driver-template and build your RPM in a docker container that we provide as an alternative to the DDK (more convenient and uses XCP-ng packages). Or use Xenserver's DDK (this solution still works because we're using the same kernel, but we prefer the first one). See also: https://github.com/xcp-ng/xcp/wiki/Kernel-modules-policy

  @bnrstnr said in Storage Link: Can you explain better exactly what you're trying to do? Only for easy mapping of a disk to storage directly to a virtual server. Thus Avoiding the need for iSCSI configuration within the Guest VM. I Know the appeal today is no longer available... My question is whether anyone knows if it is still possible to perform via CLI or if there are plans to be implemented again.

  You are right, this is clearly the future. It's still incomplete but we have hope to get something really great at the medium/long run.
