XO console keyboard on iOS and iPadOS - no input possible
-
Not sure if this is an iOS and iPadOS limitation, but It's not possible to pull up the on screen keyboard to type in the console. I never needed it, till this morning, so never noticed this.
Also, as this did not work, I tried a RDP connection using Microsoft Remote Desktop app, to a windows machine with XCP-ng center. That console only likes the ENTER button (from the RDP app onscreen keyboard). All other keys did not work, so it was impossible to type "fsck -y /dev/xvda" on a VM that needed it's disk checking at boot.

It's not implemented in XO (yet). I think there's already an issue opened in XO bug tracker, but due to the lack of popular demand, it's not high in the prio list.

Thumbs up on this, have been facing the same issue today.

Virtual keyboard is planned for XO 6

Having just got an iPad I’ve noticed this too. Have to RDP to my office machine to get onto xcp-ng Center. Ideally it would be great to have an iPad app as interface to XO. But of course won’t happen.

No but it doesn't mean this won't be solved with a virtual keyboard anyway

It would need to be able to trigger the built in iPad / iPhone keyboard for it to be properly usable.
