      Right now updates are still being done in the V5 interface but I assume that will change once V6 is fully implemented...but wondering if the current version and maybe an update link which goes to the V5 interface in the meantime can be added?

      Screenshot 2026-02-11 at 10.14.44.png

      Currently the version in the V6 settings page just shows as blank.

        In Ubuntu 24.04 VM with two PIFs: XO6 report the same IP addresses on VIF #1 as VIF #0. IPv4 and IPv6s on VIF #0 are reported correctly.

        XO5 reports both IPs correctly.

          @acebmxer Themes are in preview for now. Don't worry, persistency and other features will come after user management arrives in XO 6 🙂

          @fluxtor Do you mean that you edit the backup job through the API before running it?

          @aesparragon We're looking into that, thanks!

          @jacob.becker We're adding the maintenance icon very soon, thanks for the feedback. Regarding VM vs host in the treeview, do you mean that the icon isn't clear enough? Do you have the same issue with pools?

          @capeschools Indeed, updates are still done in XO 5 for now, we're trying to implement critical features first, but don't hesitate to upvote it on our dedicated platform if it's a priority for you: https://feedback.vates.tech/posts/11/add-xo-updater-tab

            As of commit - a3139

            VM creation in v6 number of cpu is set to 1 not what is chosen. I choose 5 cpus and 1 is set after creation. ISO is mounted now and Ram is set correctly with correct network.

            Still have issues with themes but did not se any mention of them in latest commits.

              I ran into backup failure this morning, I think someone else mentioned about it in another post. I went to check if there was a newer version of XO since usually things get fixed quickly. so I updated XO to build 9dbc09011.

              Few things

              • XO loads up now using interface 6 as default.
              • As someone else mentioned, about version is blank in v6.
              • When I click on V5 link it brings me back to V5 but its broken for me. Sits there saying loading.
                64c3b627-66b5-4bd7-8983-cacad2d897af-image.png
              • Havent tried using guide to go back to V5 to see why backup failed. Not sure if V6 has enough to figure out backup issue since i havent used it much.

              Update: looks like it failing to get something on v5 url.
              7fd5a824-1667-403d-81ca-f8f136679b42-image.png

              Update 2: I had to remove LISTEN_ADDRESS="" from my xo-install.cfg to get version 5 working again

                I don't have that many pools, sorry.
                The icon for each host got lost in a wall of VMs if you have lets say >50 VMs per host. AFAIK the tree-view allways starts fully expanded. Since all VM belonging to any host are on the same depth of the tree you can scroll over a host easy.
                Another thing are VMs which do not belong to a host - they are shown on the same depth as a host.

                I personally would color the line for a host, but i know that this not the way most design guidlines agrees with.

                  @acebmxer Thanks for the report, we'll check that! Regarding themes, it will remain non-persistent until we implement the full theme system.

                  @jacob.becker Thanks for the detailed feedback, we'll see how we can improve that 🙂

                    @marcoi Sounds like your issue is related to: https://github.com/vatesfr/xen-orchestra/issues/9500

                    ronivay created this issue in vatesfr/xen-orchestra

                    closed v5 interface doesn't work if hostname set #9500

                        XO 6 (Enterprise) VM Interfaces shows incorrect IP address assignment on a given VM for a multi NIC VM.

                        XOA Version 6.0.3
                        2dc0dc0f-903e-4bbd-bac0-ade7dbf119ab-image.png

                        This shows correctly in XO5 Enterprise (and XOCE) without issue.
                        e9efc216-7326-4fd4-9e29-ff2160b7e577-image.png

                        The expanded view shows both IP addresses that are assigned to different interfaces, but it doesn't delineate nor show properly which IP address is actually assigned to the VIF. See below.

                        f41667d9-9de5-461e-af69-4598910b9e87-image.png

                        On VIF1, this nic is assigned to the 172.16.1.199 address.

                            Snapshots.
                            There is no information about them in any dashboard.
                            There is no way to manage them.

                                    When creating vm in v6 and renaming the disk name. You can only enter 1 letter at a time. You have to keep clicking then typing the next letter. No other field has this issue.

                                      Windows guests Console - Reloads every 5-10s.

                                      When trying to use the console for both my Windows 11 and Server 2025. The console reloads every 5-10s. This makes it borderline unusable. Since it resets the viewport/window scroll placement as well. Also the console seems to loose focus when this happens as well. Leading to have to click the console-section to get it in focus, to receive I am not seeing this behaviour in XO5 at all.

                                      .
                                      .
                                      .
                                      .
                                      Unfortunately this is still present in commit 0a0ae5dc7ea6608612d105f6338ffe72d8bd9ed1 as well..

                                      Update: I recorded the behaviour, for better clarification:
                                      https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PXpBFgSl31U

                                      I'm noticing the same, or at least very similar, behaviour on some linux VMs now also.

                                        I just setup a fresh demo install (fresh empty XCP-NG) on a laptop w/ a NAS for ISO/VM/Backup, and thought I would give XO 6 a go...and the first thing I needed was a Storage Repository...where does one add that in XO 6? in XO 5 +New > Storage.

                                        I am not seeing anything to add one, figured I would post here, because its a new interface, I might be 100% blind to it.

                                          It's likely not functional in XO6 atm, I'd just default to using XO5 for the infrastructure setup and then you can test the XO6 interface out as your daily driver
