There is some diff, but not that much between HyperV, ESXi and Xen. However, it's big enough to require a lot of effort to get nested working correctly, one small mistake and your VM is dead.

If it's only the XAPI that was damaged, you can restore metadata from your XO/Pool metadata backup. Alternatively, if you forgot to make metadata backup, you can introduce SR to find back all your previous disks (but you will lose the medata data with it).

Great news! Thanks for the feedback

I have good experience with WiBu Key dongles and a "Matrix USB-Key" (also license dongle) but couldn't get an Aladdin HASP working. I can pass it through (it's visible and attached) but the VM doesn't show it in device manger (Windows 10 1909). I gave up for now and will probably use a network USB thingie from SEH - already have 2 of their devices running in different environments and they work flawlessly.

@stormi Thanks, looking forward.

So you have to dig in the SMlog to check what's going on

Just a reminder for myself, or other people in need in the future thanks again for all people who helped me understanding this Had to reinstall my entire XCP system, and almost forget how to configure Ldap plugin to only allow my admin accout to login So here's my Ldap plugin conf, to allow only admin user (member of specific group) to login. my AD is a windows 2K19 server with active directory without ssl. URI : ldap://dc.domain.net:389 no certificate info base : dc=domain,dc=net Credential : Fill = tick DN = full DN of service user (CN=xen,OU=service_account,DC=domain,DC=net) password = password of this account it's a simple account with no specific right, can only read AD and login User Filter, where it can stuck (&(sAMAccountName={{name}})(memberOf=CN=SG-XCP_Admin,OU=service_account,DC=domain,DC=net)) in real my OU have spaces inside their name, it work anyway. SG-XCP_Admin is a security group having my admin users inside ID Attribute : sAMAccountName and that's all.

Am I missing something here ?

The documentation is now in a much better shape than when I started this thread, has been available for months at https://xcp-ng.org/docs/. You can still contribute to it. Each page footer has a "help us improve this page" link that allows to create a pull request with your changes. Many thanks to everyone who contributed to the documentation and to those who will.

Hi, It depends on your Windows version (eg > 2019 : go for XenServer drivers). Those PV drivers are pretty stable and works. Alternatively, you can use https://www.xenserver.com/downloads

@ilidza no unfortunately not I opend a github issue. Here the link - Maybe you can ad something. https://github.com/vatesfr/xen-orchestra/issues/6097 @olivierlambert i have tried it on XOA - the same Issue. wuchererbe created this issue in vatesfr/xen-orchestra closed unknown filesystem type LVM2_member #6097

@Biz365 Warm migrations from ESXi are ESXi license dependent on what you have/had with ESXi. Otherwise you can replicate the VM using the migration tool and then manually shutdown the VM on ESXi and then power it on XCP-ng.

Trying something new... Remove all servers from XO and log out. Host 1 is powered off. On host 2. xe task-list uuid ( RO) : 727ecb6b-6f2e-15eb-601b-110b2478996b name-label ( RO): Async.host.power_on name-description ( RO): status ( RO): pending progress ( RO): 0.000 xe task-cancel uuid=727ecb6b-6f2e-15eb-601b-110b2478996b Task is still there. From XCP-NG Center. Shutdown all VMs and host2 (All powered off). Powered up both servers. Wait 15 minutes to make sure no tasks are pending (xe task-list). Logging output to file via putty of; tail -f /var/log/audit.log Added host2 (master) to XO Settings/Servers. The Async.host.power_on task hasn't come back.

@Greg_E said in XCP-ng Windows PV tools announcements: @john.c I'll have to update group policy and check that out, would be a time saver. Everything I use is an Enterprise level of some kind, using EDU in production right now, and Pro/Enterprise evaluation in the lab. I was looking at running a post imaging script to prevent some of the bloat, but a GPO might be easier. You can use Windows ADK to customise the installation media and build a custom ISO. That file can then be placed on your ISO SR. The GPO is especially effective when combined with a custom ISO built using Windows ADK. I have tried this myself and it’s very effective doing it this way, the Windows ADK tool is very powerful but will require time to learn. Will save time with all of the extra installations, if you use a custom ISO.

Are you sure the job isn't already running, as per the error message?

@olivierlambert Awesome! Can't wait.
