XCP-ng Center 25.04 Released
-
Hello, I am in the process of migrating from XenServer 8.2 CU 1 first to XCP-ng 8.2 and then to XCP-ng 8.3. I am more used to using XenCenter, therefore I try to use XCP-ng Center to access the machines with XenServer 8.2 CU 1 and the machines with XCP-ng both 8.2 and 8.3, but this version does not allow me to access XenServer. I have verified that by changing [Citrix Hypervisor] to Citrix Hypervisor in Branding.resx I can access both environments without problems. Is this change possible in XCP-ng Center?

@uberiain Can you show me the exact error, also if possible, install the PDB's and send me the XCP-ng Center.log file (Accessable under Help > View XCP-ng Center Log Files) after attempting a connection, this will allow me to further debug this.

Hi, These are the results of the execution:
and the log and settings:
Settings.txt
XCP-ng Center.txtDebuggin XCP-Center I see in this
private static bool SameProductBrand(Host host)
{
var brand = host.ProductBrand();
return brand == BrandManager.ProductBrand || brand == BrandManager.LegacyProduct ||
BrandManager.ProductBrand == "[XenServerProduct]";
}
The value of brand is "Citrix Hypervisor" and BrandManager.LegacyProduct is "[Citrix Hypervisor]"
If I set in Branding.resx this:
<data name="LEGACY_PRODUCT" xml:space="preserve">
<value>Citrix Hypervisor</value>
</data> -
Hi this is the result with pdb installed:

@uberiain I think i got it to work on 8.4 (Though in that version it uses XenServer) and I also added Citrix Hypervisor to that check as well just to be safe, but look @ the newest vNext build in GitHub Actions for a build that supports that.

@michael.manley Thanks for the update! I still use it, mostly for the direct (not web based) console and it can still do a few things XO does not.
The update did not replace the old version (also different install location), but that's ok. I just uninstalled the old one and reconnected to the XCP servers.

Hello, I noticed that in this new version there is no option to connect to the server via Active Directory. I still use version 20.04.01 and this feature would be very useful. I would appreciate it if you could return this option.
