Can I monitor multiple HOST'S on a outside world network?

I want to be able to manage multiple xenorchestra locations. Because right now I need to VPN to every different location to see how vm's, backups etc... is running. Can I see all from 1 dashboard.

Thank you,
Raul.

Hi,

This is the goal of XO Proxies. See https://xen-orchestra.com/blog/xo-proxy-a-concrete-guide/

@olivierlambert
for the quick response. I'm reading now thru it to see how I can do it. thanks

XO Proxy is for sure a solution to this, I'd also mention though that you can use a single XOA to manage multiple hosts and just build a VPN between those hosts and the main XOA.

For example, Site A could have 5 hosts, and have XOA running on one of them, Site B has a Site to Site IPSec VPN and 5 more hosts, and then you just point XOA from Site A to the IPs over the VPN so it can manage those servers.

Unless there are issues with this approach @olivierlambert ?

No issue with that, as long as you have a directly reachable host via tunnels or via proxy, it's OK.

@olivierlambert Gotcha, that's what I thought.

Thanks!

So yeah @rauly94 either use XO Proxy or setup a VPN, those are the 2 best options for this.
