XCP-ng Center: Future
-
Hello Community!
I hope you all had a good start into year 2020!
I decided to change the way I release XCP-ng Center due the lack of other people participating in development. In future I will only release builds based on the master branch of CITRIX XenCenter (https://github.com/xenserver/xenadmin).
Pro:
- fixes from CITRIX xenadmin (aka XenCenter) master branch will be faster present in our releases
- only one upstream branch to merge from; reduces the hassle to merge/cherry pick from/to 3 different branches (like 7.6, 8.0, master).
Contra:
- hmm... maybe there is none
Within this change the version schema will also change. I think I use the YEAR.MONTH schema, so the next release will be "XCP-ng Center 2020.01".
The first step in this direction is the pre-relase of the current nightly build 99.99.99.27: https://github.com/xcp-ng/xenadmin/releases/tag/v99.99.99.27

Hey thanks for working on XCP-ng Center -- I find it a really useful tool.
Is this a README that describes how your project differs from XenCenter.
-
Excellent! XenCentre is still easier to use and provides visibility that XO doesn't so it's important to have.
-
Thank you Borzel.. for me i still go back n forth beetween XO & xcp-ng center because i'm still newbie in xcp-ng.
-
Thanks for the work, wouldn't it make more sense to name it "XCP-ng Center 20.01" ? Just my 2cents.
-
Thanks
-
@cobraAG hmm.. 20 can be everything... 2020 is more clearly a year
-
Thank you, Borzel for working on XCP-ng Center!
-
@borzel, many many thanks for work on XCP-ng Center!
Without XCP-ng Center, administering XCP-ng would be much more difficult and risky (error-prone) for me. -
@borzel: I second that! From time to time, I try to move over to XOA, but I always keep coming back to XCP-ng Center. XCP-ng Center supports my administrative tasks in a straight forward way (at least apart from backups ) and gives me all the information I need. Thank's for doing a great job!

Thank you very much borzel. I am daily using XCP-ng Center to manage VM of 3 servers. I use XO for backup and migrate cases. Both are great tools. Thanks again for your time for providing and keep updating the release.
-
and here is the next nightly build
https://github.com/xcp-ng/xenadmin/releases/tag/99.99.99.28
Contains:
- all upstream changes from https://github.com/xenserver/xenadmin master
-
@borzel Thank you for all your work. XCP-ng Center is a tool I use most while XO is great for doing backups.

Same here. XO is good but doesn't give you the same sort of overview that you get from xcp-ng center. Everything is somewhat hidden away under its on set of sub menus.

Will XCP-NG Center ever support IPv6?
-
@Appollonius I don't think so, unless it's implemented upstream.
-
@borzel Sad, as it will be today's 'standard' and will apply even more the upcoming years.
-
@Appollonius @borzel They've been saying that it'll be relevant for 20 years, though.
- about a year later
