      @marcoi said: Applied the latest pushed updated to production, no major issues. Thank you for testing The only thing to note is my backup XCP config failed Sunday, (...) This morning the backup ran without issues. Glad it has finally to work, if problem occurs again feel free to ask about this feature in this subforum: https://xcp-ng.org/forum/category/21/backup

      Sorry it's back. Just to line things up for whoever picks this up: the original full-backup Body Timeout was tracked in https://github.com/xapi-project/xen-api/pull/6786 and shipped with the March 2026 8.3 updates, so what you're seeing on metadata backups might be a cousin rather than the same bug. From Olivier's earlier note the error just means XO got nothing from the pool master for 5 minutes mid-transfer, so the useful question is what the master was doing during that silence. The fact that a toolstack restart clears it for a while and then it returns is probably itself a clue. Could you grab the complete logs from one failed metadata run (the ask pierrebrunet made earlier), plus a rough note of whether it lines up with the master being busy or briefly unreachable? I'm out of my depth on the internals, but that's the piece the team will want. last-genius opened this pull request in xapi-project/xen-api closed stream_vdi: Only process allocated clusters for VHD and QCOW on XVA export #6786

      @pedro_udifar Hi, We think we have found two issues into one: can you test this branch please? It has the changes from previous branch you built: fix_throttled_stream This should fix the stream issue and fix the warning.

      @olivierlambert said: I'm not sure it's a great idea, because even 64 hosts is huge in terms of VMs and fallout if you have a problem on your pool DB. Even if you drastically improve the current mechanism, the impact of a problem pool wide is far bigger with 64 hosts than 24 for example. It's more than purely tech, it's also a tech design/choice. Exactly, the failure domain just grows exponentially when going beyond a certain collective pool size. I was doing some more research and I found a few possible choices that Tesco may have moved too, but don't want to detract from this forum here.

      @laszlobortel Hehe yeah, those are pretty old kernels. I'd say there's a good chance kernel upgrades will go a long way to alleviating the CPU hangs. I can't say it's exclusively a problem with lvmohba storage, that's just what we use because of our previous VMware infrastructure was block storage over fiber channel. We knew a physical infra overhaul wasn't in the cards for us for this migration so we stayed with our existing storage system. This bug bit us half way through the migration until we figured out upgrading the kernel generally fixed it.

      For your storage question, it's fully explained in the doc: https://docs.xcp-ng.org/storage/#-how-to-modify-an-existing-sr-connection And yes, it's planned to get the complete error visible in XO, sadly, it's not "obvious" since the error message isn't returned by XAPI when you try to start but by another method we need to call after it fails ("assert can be started here" from the top of my head). Let me ping @julienXOvates

      Meant to update this again last night - as a road map for those who might try similar at some point: This community's documentation led me to some relevant information on mouse/keyboard pass-through. Namely, if you want this to work you have to pass the entire PCI controller through to the guest(s), Won't work with motherboard devices. But I'm out of PCIe slots. What to do... Simple. Chuck the two serial adapters and install two dual USB 2.0 adapters in their places. Connect the keyboard/mouse to one of the ports and a 4/8/16 port USB to serial adapter to the other. Then pass the entire controller through. In this particular server (R810) I have 5 available PCIe slots. Two will be used for the video cards, one for a 4x NVMe to PCIe adapter (which is eventually where the VMs will reside) and the remaining two for the USB interfaces. This effectively gives me two discrete physical systems, a third available VM instance (say, for network management, monitoring or whatever) and the XOA instance. For application/radio control systems hypervisors (nested) I'll probably have 2ea Win11 and whatever flavor of Linux that supports the GT730 GPU on the system - each assigned the pass-through devices - but only two running at any given time. So no resource contention issues. As far as the displays: I have the main interface of the server connected via SIP to a 2160AS KVM. I'll take 2 more SIPs and use these as the keyboard/mouse inputs for the USB cards. Video...I use an HDMI active splitter on other systems in the network so I'll employ that here. One of the ports on the add-in GPUs goes to the splitter, one of the splitter outputs goes to the SIP via HDMI to VGA adapter and the other feeds the main ceiling mount monitor. The Primary display will be replicated to the KVM screen. Resolution isn't an issue as I have a video scaler inline with the KVM for just this scenario. The concept could be expanded. I'm looking at picking up a T630 and building 4 effective "systems" out of it, following the same principle. The 630 has 8 available PCIe slots. Will update when the next batch of hardware arrives - or I get the Linux side of things sorted. That's next.

I did apply the grub changes to use the -d.gz file and iommu=debug as well so ideally that output should be included)

      Hello @mgr42 I can confirm that indeed today AMD iGPU passthrough is not working on XCP-ng. I am currently (slowly) working on it. There are other references about this topic in the Forum and on GitHub FYI: https://xcp-ng.org/forum/topic/11918/amd-barcelo-passthrough-issues-any-success-stories https://xcp-ng.org/forum/topic/8909/issue-to-load-gpu-passthrough-invalid-pci-rom-header-signature-expecting-0xaa55-got-0x4556 https://github.com/xcp-ng/xcp/issues/806 https://github.com/xapi-project/xen-api/commit/930ffb34e42d674b8234c3d8399fdba97efa6b38 On the setup I am working on, the Expansion ROM is provided indeed by firmware via the VFCT ACPI table. I dumped it to a file and provided it to qemu-dm xen-pci-passthrough device via the romfile= argument (via a modified XAPI build). I can now indeed see a ROM bar in the guest but unfortunately its content is not the content of the file therefore nothing works (amdgpu driver is unable to get its ROM and fails). So now I'm debugging qemu to try to understand the issue with the emulated/passed-through ROM BAR. Regards, Yann Kernel & Hypervisor team timemaster5 created this issue in xcp-ng/xcp open Unable to set romfile for xen-pci-passthrough devices #806 0 freddy77 committed to xapi-project/xen-api CA-418993: Enable PCI ROM BAR before attempting to give permissions to the VM Currently the VM is not able to access the ROM as the host ROM BAR is disabled and not set.
