        Could you provide more context? Which problem are you referring to?

        Edit - Just updated home lab XOA to 6.4.1 no issues with v6 dashboard loading.

          no, that was about this:
          "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."

              I really miss the description column XO5 has in the default/home view. I understand space is limited for the tree view, but maybe it could appear when a host is selected in the tree view?

                or as a tooltip when the cursor fly-over the name of th VM / host

                  In XO6, you will see it if you click on the eye at the end of the row, then on the right panel.
                  Is this OK ?

                    I noticed that. Unfortunately, for our use case, clicking on each vm to see the description is a little onerous. Ideally, you'd allow the user to customize the visible columns in the VMs page/tab. The fact that search includes description does help. Ultimately, it was convenient that XO5 would allow us to quickly identify vms by the description from the "Home" page.

                      Personally I don't really find the rightmost pane/section all that usefull. It's to narrow to have any clear information. And it also leads to the other panels being smaller than they (imho) need to be able to show their base information as well.
                      This is especially noticable when using windows sizes narrower than 1080p.

                      The rightmost pane I hope will get either removed, and redone in UI v7. Because right now XO5 is far more informational than that is.

                      Sorry for jumping on with my two cents.

                        @jr-m4 do you know you can collapse the side bar? Use the hamburger icon just after "Xen Orchestra" title to do so.

                          Yes, but it is the rightmost pane that I'm not agreeing with.
                          The left most "tree-view"-sidebar is quite usefull. And has imho good potential.

                            Ah sorry I read it too quickly. This panel is only there in some occasions, but I see the point of only displaying it when we click on a relevant element. Feedback for you @julienxovates

                              While on the topic of the tree-view panel.
                              Have you noticed that the indentation changes if there is a chevron indicating that there are VMs on a host? Making it so that the hosts no longer are alinged vertically

                                  Afternoon, my session timed out and I do get the normal login page, but when I login I get this UiAlert Message:

                                    Slow booting on Debian 13 VM created from a template

                                    I recently tried cloning a VM from a template (created from a full install of Debian 13). What was noticed was that the system takes forever to boot when the VM is created from XO-6. The issue does not happen in XO-5. The VM seems to hang at the TianoCore boot screen Hang.png.

                                    What I noticed is that when the VM is cloned with XO-6 the boot order somehow changes to Network boot as the first option

                                    BootOrder.png

                                    This does not happen (change of boot order) if the VM is cloned from XO-5 and there is no boot delay. The boot process seems to wait for more than 2 minutes before it fails network boot and then proceeds normally to boot from the Hard drive
                                    Hang2.png

                                    Thanks

                                    Hi @escape222,
                                    For info boot order issue has been resolved in XO 6.5 !
