@stormi Thanks. I'll cross my fingers for a fix, at some time.

I noticed that /etc/xensource/usb-policy.conf was send back to stock configuration, so I readded my modification to it. I'm not sure, if that's the expected behavior, after the host update + restart.

Yes, it is. I opened this upstream issue about it, but no common decision was reached yet: https://github.com/xapi-project/xen-api/issues/4935

stormi created this issue in xapi-project/xen-api open Packaging: xapi-core RPM updates overwrite custom user config in usb-policy.conf #4935

@olivierlambert Very very good news. Great job on the import tool.

Its not solving it, but you can run

echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches

to release some of the cache again, without interfering with running processes.

[root@host2 ~]# free -m
total used free shared buff/cache available
Mem: 15958 3308 158 8 12491 2355
Swap: 1023 177 846

@wyatt-made No such thing is known. I just haven't checked the compatibility yet.

When you boot in UEFI mode, press "e" to edit the boot command line, you have a line to change the memory for dom0.

I did the manual installation via the XVA. It worked for me.

@Pyroteq Currently I am running my plex server via TrueNAS scale with HW transcoding. So I don't need it with XCP-NG anymore... 🙂 But for the people who do need it, this can be useful to them.

Great news! Thanks @julien-f for the difficult investigation (it was hard to catch) and obviously everyone who helped to report and provide feedback. That's how we build software: together! 👍

How about doing your own matrix?

I'm not sure Unitrends is supporting XCP-ng. Please refer to your backup vendor.

Current backup solutions claming to support XCP-ng: https://xcp-ng.org/docs/backup.html

I am finding myself in this really unfortunate situation. We want to use Microsoft Connected Cache which requires Hyper-V. Microsoft Connected Cache is a way to cache inTune installation packages to reduce internet usage.

We always try to work with Citrix ("XenServer" division now), to push things upstream and manage to get it merged.

@chrisarzu

You're very welcome. My solution to the similar problem I'd had was to set up a couple of internal systems as NTP servers so that I always had something with the right time and static IP addresses and pointed everything needing NTP at them.

@dvdhngs

install onto (mdadm/ZFS) RAID 10: no

to use (mdadm/ZFS) RAID 10 as SR: yes, of course!

Hi ! We are experiencing these kind of problems because we activated Continous Replication and frequency was way too low.

Now I want to eliminate all those files in the chain, can I do it manually from XCP-NG Center or XOA ?

Thanks !!!

Just tried updating our pool and after updating the master had failed migration of VM (Ubuntu) and then was unable to get VM to start (Missing VDI error). Only solution was to roll master back to 7.4 and everything working again.

I ran into a similar situation when I upgraded to 7.5 this week. Did you check to see if there was a non-existent ISO mounted in the CD rom for the VM in question?

Thank you. That was my problem. I gave cd empty. Everything works.

@julien-f I just wanted to update and let you know that whatever changes you made fixed the issue for me permanently! I have been able to routinely update since that time and have had no further issues.

Thanks for all of your hard work, Julien-f!

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
