@giejo said in Recommended DELL Hardware ?: @Pilow thanks, don't want XO STOR for this use case, i just need one server in a room and the other in another. Are you planning on performing Continuous Replication job from 1 host to the other? Just trying to gauge what your plan is for the split hosts to make sure you're not missing something. With local storage on each hosts, you won't be able to live migrate from 1 host to the other. Singular Shared Storage (like a single Synology) creates a single point of failure, that you may want to avoid (but that needs clarification). Where as two servers, each mirrors of each other with local everything, and just replicating VM's to each other every minute or so might be sufficient for your environment. Of course you would still need to consider how you're going to patch the pool, since you won't be able to live migrate with shared nothing..

@yeopil21 you can target vsphere it should work The issue here is that XO fail to link one of your datastore to the datacenter is it XO from source or a XOA ? you should have in your server logs something like can't find datacenter for datastore with the datacenters and the datastore name as detected by XO are you using an admin account on vsphere or is it a limited one ?

@florent Thanks again for your assistance, greatly appreciated.

Give me a couple of days to try. It is (obviously) down to the combination of devices passed through, as I reported this earlier: said in TrueNAS VM failing to start: Re-boot XCP and start the TrueNAS VM with NO passthrough devices. As expected, that started up fine. Cheers.

@Pilow we are still working on it, but for now we didn't find a solution

@jqueiroz said in Second IP for Hosts Interface: I have a situation where I would like to add a second IPv4 address to the management interface of a host. I am installing a host that will be used in another location and I would like to add the address of that location to the management interface before shipping the machine there. Is it possible to do this, or should I continue using the current procedure (making the necessary configurations and change the address shortly before shutting down the machine and packing it for transport)? there is a nuance between secondary IP and secondary MANAGEMENT IP if you have multiple NICS, you could add & configure the destination site IP on it, but it is not flagged management yet. once the server gets on the new site, you could access web ui by this IP address (or SSH) and then either go to web console/xs server or SSH and do the necessary to change management to the good PIF/IP ?

I just released 0.0.4! Still an alpha, but it's becoming pretty usable - there was over 60 commits of code cleanup, polish and also limited testing of all visible features - pretty much everything that is now visible in the UI should be operational at this point, option pages, properties of hosts, pools, VDIs, configuration of NICs, even bonding and advanced stuff like pool password / secret rotation. All XAPI actions and commands were already ported over from C# variant, so my focus now is only on finishing it into a final usable product. We also have some features that original client doesn't have (such as XenCache explorer)! Next on my to-do is to add all features that are currently missing completely: HA, GPU, PCIe, VM import / export etc. Note: I will not be porting over any licensed or proprietary Citrix stuff. This tool may work with XenServer just fine, but I will not be porting over any of the proprietary features, because I will never use it and I have no way to test it either.

Ok, my syntax is oudated. resize_rootfs: true growpart: mode: auto devices: ['/dev/xvda3'] ignore_growroot_disabled: false runcmd: - pvresize /dev/xvda3 - lvextend -r -l +100%FREE /dev/ubuntu-vg/ubuntu-lv || true this one works. final_message. doesn't support any macro like %(uptime) %(UPTIME)

@Pilow said in Unable to copy template: something preventing you to patch thoses hosts ? yes.

@MajorP93 It's being packaged at the moment. between this and the testing that needs to be done it might take a couple of weeks to be released, but I can't promise anything yet

@olivierlambert New thread is here

It is difficult to know the source of the problem without more details from your logs. Can you run the following commands on your XCP-ng host and then attach the generated files here? grep -A 15 -B 15 -i error /var/log/xensource.log/xensource > xensource.txt grep -A 15 -B 15 -i exception /var/log/SMlog > smlog.txt dmesg -T|grep -Eiv 'guest|capacity|promiscuous' > dmesg.txt

@nathanael-h I have not yet tried the XO CSI driver, if I do I will leave feedback on the relevant thread. (I found the one started in 2025 November)

@MajorP93 Hi, In the demo dashboard it is intended yes but these percentages are obtained by dividing the free memory by total memory so changing the dashboard to show GB/GiB should be quite straight forward. I've forgot to add to the initial post that there is a advanced dot md file that describes all the available metrics located in "xen-orchestra/docs/docs". Thanks.

@Tristis-Oris yes it is likely you're using a newer kernel, we likely need to rebuild the agent using a newer version of the netlink crate.

@florent @fcgo the host that was queried (with host_ip/export_raw_vdi) will do the export from the shared SR, and will redirect the query to the host that can see the SR otherwise. So it's up to the XO/other orchestrators if they want to distribute the load here.
