      @rzr said: Hi @andrew, thank you for your feedback, the fallback option you're suggesting will work but it will downgrade the security of your system, we suggested to update clients: If users need to take action, I would rather recommend users to do something that raises the security floor, like generating new keys with newer, future-looking ciphers, like ed25519: ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C "<email>" for server in $servers do ; ssh-copy-id $server; done

      @acebmxer I’m sorry to say that if those Dells are at your workplace, the wrong edition of iDRAC was purchased. You see with at the very least iDRAC 9 access to the full granular IPMI sensor data, was placed behind an edition paywall by Dell Technologies. Outlet temperature is just one of the feeds, missing from the Enterprise or lower edition of iDRAC 9. You’ll get the temperature readings from the Dell iDRAC web browser based interface, but not IPMI with iDRAC 9 Enterprise. To obtain the full IPMI sensor data you need the Datacenter edition.

      All vms still on host 1 after setting Migration cooldown time to 0 this morning. Maybe bug or just ui bug. When set to 0 save config when you load the page the "Fill information" for Migration Cooldown setting is unchecked but 0 is still applied. If set to 1. and reload the box is check as expected.

So basically, there is a more annoying issue, as the device doesn't even have a ROMBAR, in this case, the VBIOS is likely in the VFCT ACPI table of host (which the guest can't see); which needs to be injected as a "fake" rombar for the guest to behave properly. That doable on its own, but it's quite tricky to integrate (and you would e.g need to extract VBIOS from VFCT using external tools). I just discussed with Xen/AMD people, and there are known issues regarding PCI Passthrough of integrated AMD GPUs (not specific to Xen AFAIU). There are some projects regarding alternative approaches to bring AMD GPUs to VMs (virtio-gpu native context) which is the current focus.

      @florent I have tested in our dev environment backing up a 30GB VM, which compressed into 22GB and was uploaded in 739 parts of 40MB each. I will test a larger VM next week but I think this was successful test is already conclusive. Thank You

      @firefly because the underlying hardware that the VM has registered has likely changed, maybe substantially. A sysprep has the Windows system go through and validate what it's hardware is, it removes hardware specific drivers namely, but it does other stuff too.

      And to really round this out, the MTBF for any of these is in the millions of hours (1.2-3M), that's a use time of 136.968 - 342.46 years respectively. Basically, if a drive dies, just replace it no matter what, but in the end the reliability of these drives is meant to outlast all of us. Unless you actually need some specific function provided in some form-factor or model, don't bother.

      @rama said: @olivierlambert thank you. but is it possible to keep tracking all the CURD operation like we have in terraform. but currently MCP have only Read tasks. Like if some new interns in my lab don't know about this and in this agentic framework if he/she need a VM's, delete or update it can be done very quick. it will save many hours. I hope this will be available in future or if you wish to do tell me how far it is. The plugin MCP Server is read only by design to keep using it safe, to have an MCP for reading and another for writing is best practice. If you desire to have a separate MCP server for the writing actions, feel free to suggest that in the feedback portal. You can even develop your own MCP server, which makes calls to the write side of the XO REST API. https://modelcontextprotocol.io/

      @hawkpro I believe it will be worse with continuous replication because your replica will be in a shut down state. When you decide to start it, you will have to shut down the original VM and start the replica. You will have a downtime during shut down and start up sequence. Downtime during VM migration is a necessity so there is nothing unexpected there. All types of migrations require a VM to be suspended for some time (usually seconds) during the switchover from one host or SR to the other host or SR. If you have extended downtimes of your VM migrations, then something is not quite right with your setup.

      @kent you would have to rollback to early december 2025 XO/XOA (before the 10 of december) quite a long way I'm just waiting the devs to eventually fix it as we have other way to manage VDIs (API calls)

      thanks Andryi We us round robin when using NBD , but to be fair, it does not change the performance a lot in most of the case. The concurrency settings ( multiple connection to the same file ) is helping when there is a high latency between XO and the host. SO , @fcgo if you have thousand of VMs , you should enable NBD it will consume less resource on the DOM0 and XO , and it will be spread on all the possible hosts.
