RE: Intel Flex GPU with SR-IOV for GPU accelarated VDIs
@jrouerdc Hi!
A good way to help would be to have access to some hardware and to understand more what's needed at Xen/toolstack level
I will ask around but if there's a chance we can get one card, it might be really helpful.

Our future backup code: test it!
A big change is coming!
As we prepare to add qcow2 support for backups, we took the opportunity to redesign major parts of the backup engine. The result? A much more flexible and abstracted system that can better handle various scenarios like V2V, qcow2, VHD, and more.We're also moving from traditional streams to Node generators, adding backup throttling, and laying the groundwork for future improvements.
It's not production-ready yet, but thatβs where you come in!
If you're working from sources, you can test it by switching to the branch: feat_generator_backups. Bug reports and feedback are more than welcome!More tests from you means we could put it in production sooner
For reference, the PR is here: https://github.com/vatesfr/xen-orchestra/pull/8432
Adding directly @florent in the loop because he's the guy to talk to

RE: Potential bug with Windows VM backup: "Body Timeout Error"
That's a very interesting result
It means the problem is either an interaction between XO and XAPI, or on XO's side, but not simply an XCP-ng issue as we could have thought initially
Can you check if the XVA file seems to work when importing it? (it case
xe
fails silently). Usexe vm-import

RE: create a new vm using a iso setting cpu ram network via api
@markxc said in create a new vm using a iso setting cpu ram network via api:
Out of curiosity: how do you handle the Xen Orchestra appliance installation?
We use Packer, a Debian iso and an Ansible playbook in the ansible provisioner. See https://developer.hashicorp.com/packer/integrations/hashicorp/ansible/latest/components/provisioner/ansible
With this setup, we achieve these tasks:
- Create VM, mount ISO, perform install, and detect when installation is complete
- Shut down the VM
- Export VM as an OVA template
We also have a CI/CD pipeline doing this automatically.

xe vm-export filename=export_filename compress=true
(for gzip, otherwise usezstd
for Zstd compression)Note: make sure to mount a share with enough space and not export directly on the dom0 root, otherwise you'll fill it.

That's a question for the DevOps Tools team
