      @olivierlambert I thought I need a license to use all features of XO?

      No. It's even explained in our official documentation: see https://xen-orchestra.com/docs/installation.html#from-the-sources

      If you git pull from our repo, and build it, you'll have absolutely all XO features. It's not open core, it's true open source. Our business model is creating XOA -Xen Orchestra virtual Appliance- (a dedicated VM bundled with QA and support). XOA brings extra features unrelated to XO, like an easy way to update it, stable/latest channels, and some stuff linked to your xen-orchestra.com account.

      No worries and no offense 🙂

        The complete source code is open source and freely available with no paywall.

        (And I don't think you were offending ^^)

        Edit: too late 😁

          ok, cool. So yes, then it would be great to see what needs to be done. I can start off with adding a german translation 🙂

            Sure! A translation is a first good way to contribute 🙂 Happy to have more people on board!

              Hello Oliver and thanks for your work.

              Can we add a function to send a "ctrl-alt-del" to the vm in Xo Lite? Particularly for Windows server OS's that requires it in order to get logon screen.

              Thanks.

                  @olivierlambert - This build is awesome! I just needed something simple and web-based to view the status of my VM's and this met that need. Loving XCP-ng 8.2. Cannot wait for 8.3!

                    I see I'm running commit "0d127" of XO Lite, from December 28th. Is there a faster "channel" I can get on, to test some of the latest commits?

                    Also I like how on XO you can click on the commit # to be taken to the github page for it, can that be added to xo lite?

                      XO Lite release process is a bit different. If you want the "latest" build, you can use the "SaaS" version and point it toward your host. Otherwise, you'll need to wait for the RPM to be updated in your XCP-ng.

                        Hi, just installed 8.3 on my testbox to play around with it and figured out XO Lite is not working when you select dualstack (ipv4 and ipv6) during installation. I reinstalled the machine only with ipv4 and XO Lite was up and running immediately.

                          Yes, it's not XO Lite related but IPv6 dual stack related. Adding @BenjiReis in the loop

                            Thanks for further confirming my past experience with the IPv6 dual stack and IPv6 only issue. You experienced the in-ability to connect to XO Lite because of the issue with the IPv6 dual stack management network not coming up on start up.

                              Love the platform already, great work, even with just the limited abilities that are baked in.

                                Yes, it takes a bit of time now because we validated the concept and now merging all components in a clean fashion in the code base. Now, we have a core component library we could you for both XO 6 and XO Lite \o/

                                    Have you tried with the special URL?

                                      Not sure what that is honestly. Very new to xcp-ng

                                        1. Visit your host/pool master URL (like https://<master-ip-address>) and validate the self-signed certificate
                                        2. Then enter this URL in your browser: https://lite.xen-orchestra.com/#/?master=<master-ip-address>
                                        3. Profit

                                          Closer. I at least get a login page but when I try to log in, I get "An error has occurred" I have confirmed the password. I just logged in to the host directly on the machine to confirm.

                                            Pause, I am an idiot.. I left the <> around my IP lol..

                                            Can you explain why the calling on HOST_URL/xolite.html did not work and why I needed your special URL to make that work? I think you have a very interesting way to accessing XO Lite while it's in beta.
