@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.

[olivierlambert]

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

@jr-m4 Thank you for this feedback. We'll try to make it better based on this !

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

... and after back-paging, I was able to login normally.

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 .

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

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

Thanks

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

Xen Orchestra, commit 71fa8
With a snapshot attached to a VM, it is reported to use 0% of 100GB

And if I remove the snaphot

And that seems to be more accurate

Hi @ph7,
The VDI storage used space with snapshots has been fixed in XO 6.5 !

seems more like 8% to me

same in my XOA 6.5.1

[julienXOvates]

OK, we'll have another look at it, sorry for this !

[ph7]

@julienXOvates
The faulty ones are on local SR
If I take a manual snapshot on a NFS VM, I see the correct value

Will test a scheduled one

[ph7]

Local VMs vith scheduled Incremental or full Backup and CR are affected
NFS VMs vith scheduled Incremental or full Backup are affected
NFS VMs with CR not affected

[julienXOvates]

@ph7 Thanks for those details, very helpful. We'll have a look.

Incremental -> Incremental OR full

Here is a small usability suggestion. In the Resources dashboard, in Pool view and Host view, positions of CPU and RAM are swapped. I occasionally get a brain freeze when switching between Host and Pool dashboard.

Right, thanks! We'll change this !

Yes, that's one of the next big pieces we're going to add to XO6 UI !

[Greg_E]

I still haven't set any of that stuff up, still just local accounts. Never enough time!

[julienXOvates]

@Greg_E well, UI is not ready yet (while REST API is), above screen is just the base !
