From my admin-view: I wonder about the benefits of that (and if work shouldn't be put into other usefull things). If no monitoring is connected / some autonotify via E-Mail or such, to me it's rather useless. I don't really care since when a device is broken, when it already happened $somewhen ago - I need ASAP notify of it, when it happens. Like some health monitoring for XCP, however realized (via XenCenter, central Mail service, SNMP, Nagios/Montoring plugins...)

Got that, thanks. What about the Debian server VM which didn't start? It's enabled in XOA.

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

@maxcuttins oops

How about doing your own matrix?

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.

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)

@Ced76 Ced thanks for the script.

I still don't get the "ask"

@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.

I agree. Ideally we should also contribute such changes to the xe-guest-agent upstream repository.

@schories It should be noted here that the emulated BIOS in XCPNG7.6 seemingly doesn't care about the bootflags. If the first one (per device id) isn't bootable it will fail, even if xvdb is bootable! So if you e.g. have swap on xvda, move it to another device id at the end (and temporarily disable it in fstab or so)

Thank You for the update.

Actually, looks like I had already written something about it in the Updates Howto: https://github.com/xcp-ng/xcp/wiki/Updates-Howto#a-special-word-about-xcp-ng-75-76-and-live-migrations

@pwason said in Using iGPU in VM(s) -- Possible? How?: FirePro S7150 Note: I never had the opportunity to work with AMD vGPU compatible stuff, so I have no idea how this could/should work.

@xisco is this XCP thing? or citrix? about pausing VM - this is default behavior in Hyper-V server and is work flawless - restarting server prior to some MS patching - all vm are going nicely to sleep and after boot resumes accordingly.

Alright. Thanks for letting us know.
