It's not an officially supported client so it's normal, except if someone in the community make that change

Yes. Don't hesitate to contact them. I'm not sure they'll support an alpha release, but maybe they can be convinced to.
-
Ohh.. Cool.. If I upgrade my lab machine by ISO, will subsequent updates be done by yum or will I have to update by ISO again (and again) ?
-
You will be able to update with a simple
yum update(and the usual toolstack restart or reboot depending on the updated components). -
The only promise I can't make - though there's a high chance it will actually be possible - is that you won't have to use the ISO at all for upgrading to the final release.
-
Thanks for making compatible with NUC10, much appreciated
-
Congratulations for your new release!
I am very interested in new features, still waiting for raw storage devices, new xo and hopefully the job where I could revert a VM always to its latest snapshot ^^
I had short time today to try an Upgrade of an old VM (could have still been 7.6 in Virtualbox) and the installation went OK.
But no https available. Quickly checked on the host with netstat, only :80 was used.
Had not much time today, but found out port 443 might be planned to be used by stunnel, I tried to manually run stunnel with the config in etc, but got an error about a too short key or something.
I will do a fresh installation next to it in a new vm and compare and troubleshoot tomorrow if possible.
-
Port 443 should work with XO Lite by default
-
@olivierlambert
Yes that's what I expected because of course I wanted to try XO Lite, but had no chance to see it today.Port 80 seems to automatically redirect to https if opened in a Browser, but I will analyse as soon as possible and report what I find.
-
There's no redirect for now in XCP-ng, are you sure it's the right IP address?
-
@olivierlambert you're right, there was an error message, no redirect! Something like access denied or similar ...
-
I did not know about XO Lite. Impressive.
-
@olivierlambert @stormi Thanks for the shot out in the blog post! I'm happy to help.
I think 8.3 has gone a little crazy with the purple theme... but that's not a functional issue.
ISO 8.3 installs/upgrades have worked fine so far on anything I have tried that ran XCP 8.2. I'll have some more time soon to do better testing.
Thanks for the ongoing quality work on open source software.

I wasn’t going to say it myself but I agree. Personally it doesn’t matter as long as it works… but it’s a LOT of purple.

Great to see the next iteration of XCP-ng
What is the status on the base OS choice for XCP-ng instead of CentOS?
-
So still have the problem today on the upgraded VM that no https is available.
I installed a new VM now and there it works and I found these differences, looks like the /etc/xensource/xapi-ssl.pem file is too old.
FRESH NEW VM:
UPGRADED VM:
