@ph7
With another xcp-ng server that is not yet updated i can see the Network throughput graph from url/xolite.html which is on v0.2.2 (3a44b)

stormi

@gduperrey can you check?

@stormi Nice work on the PCI passthru. Very helpful. I like the treeview as well. Thanks!

gduperrey

@stormi and @ph7 I just tested with two xo-lites in 0.2.1 and 0.2.2 on just installed servers, and in both cases, the Network throughput graph seems to have lines and values.

@gduperrey
Both servers was last updated ~ 3 weeks ago

I updated the other server the same way i updated the first one and its showing the graph
The first one still no graph after another reboot.
Netdata and XO is showing the graph by the way.

Is there some log I can check

I have earlier ( a few month ago) had problems with no graphs shown at all but a change from dark to light mode and back to dark made them visible. But I dont remember what version it was and I have changed server after that.

@ph7 I've asked the xo-lite team if they can give us guidance on this or if they have any idea about the current state of this host.

@gduperrey
Its not importent to me, its just a simple homelab
I was just reporting if there was a bug.
The problematic "server":
Lenovo thinkcentre M715q
AMD Ryzen 5 2400GE
r8169 0000:01:00.0 eth0: RTL8168ep/8111ep

edit: thinkcentre

@ph7 : This issue seems to appear randomly. We are going to investigate further. Thank you for your feedback.

Greetings,

i have 8.3 running on my MS-01, it's working fine.

I upgraded my network setup with a pfsense VM and some VLAN's (still work in progress).
But, when i open my pfsense VM i'm getting this regular message:

xenstore: could not write path attr/eth1.2/ip

the 1.2 is my VLAN2 on this interface. Is this a known issue/bug? If you need some logs, then ping me

@Houbsi Did you setup the pfsense VM according to the guide?

OMG! I have just noticed that on the latest beta of 8.3 the Garge Collector gives a percentage of completion in XO(a) "Tasks" and estimation of time to completion!

THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!!!

stormi

To be fair, this feature was developed by XAPI developers at XenServer, as far as I remember

That's a benefit of open source.

But the display inside XO and the time left computation is done by XO

Actually, another cool feature I just noticed is that I am now able to take snapshots of my Windows 11 VM's with vTPM attached.. So.. The day is just getting better and better..

I havent tried doing a backup / export yet.. I think that if it worked, I would be overwhelmed with to0 much good news for a single day and faint LOL

olivierlambert

IIRC, that should work now

stormi

Indeed.

Any updates coming for 8.3.? It seems like 8.2 had a slew come out last weekish. No biggie...all is well....just curious.

stormi

Yes, big update coming for 8.3
