@drwhite85 I suggest watching some youtube videos about xcp-ng. I guest Lawrence Systems - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2wMmSm_ZeZ4 He has other videos that go into more depth

@florent With CR running and NBD enabled for 2, I see both exports and one import (per disk). It's never the import that's stuck and only one (not both) of the exports (if it happens). I have updated XCP 8.3 to the new January 2026 patch and XO to current master and will keep an eye on it again.

@dinhngtu That's great, thank you. I think I'll wait a bit before switching tools. Everything's working perfectly at the moment. If you need me to test anything, just let me know. I'd be happy to test it when I have time.

@rzr Thank you very much! @michmoor0725 Absolutely! The community is another aspect of why working with XCP-ng is a lot more fun compared to working with VMWare!

@olivierlambert Thanks! Very little time/ learning progress had been made/spent on this VM so I have gone ahead and created a new VM. The VM with the mysterious device still exists. So it would be interesting to know how but not essential.

You can forget them, no issue.

@psafont Freezing/thawing doesn't actually suspend a VM, but it's just a part of the backup process, where I/O operations are quiesced to create a stable view of the on-disk data.

@pdonias https://docs.xen-orchestra.com/users [...] Operator An operator can make everyday operations on assigned objects. For example, on a VM: eject a CD insert a CD (if he can view the ISO storage repository) start, restart, shutdown, suspend/resume it All other operations are forbidden. [...] As I understand it (I may be mistaken), changing the "Rate Limit" is already a configuration change and should not be available to an Operator.

@samuelolavo Yes, I do use NUT, but I don’t want to install any additional packet on XCP-ng. The way I found leverage the SSH authorized keys restrictions, and so you only need to change one file. Thanks for the link anyway

I had the same question but the responses here was amazing and the following blogpost nailed it. I hope it helps someone else too: https://techdirectarchive.com/2026/01/25/a-z-of-xcp-ng-and-xen-orchestra-setup-and-vm-creation/

@LoTus111 Hello, I attempted to reproduce the issue without success. Could you please share the logs with us so we can conduct a deeper investigation? Feel free to send them to me via PM.

I managed to do the migration by splitting over the two storages the remove system has. This made it work and I managed to move that one VM. However I still have a second one It's thick provisioned (LVM - never can remember the terms thin/thick). Offline isn't an option unfortunately since I need the services running, can't take if off for 15 hours. But since two of the services are docker containers, both having a separate disk of 500GB, I can make it work by setting up a two new systems and moving everything from the container there. Which would reduce the size by 1TB and make thing easier to manage. Was hoping I could finally upgrade the main xcp-ng last weekend.

I just released 0.0.3 https://github.com/benapetr/XenAdminQt/releases/tag/v0.0.3-alpha it brings it even closer to the original client, with packages for macos, debian12, debian13, ubuntu 22, ubuntu 24, Fedora 43, windows

Hi, Have you followed https://help.vates.tech/kb/en-us/8-technical-support/15-open-a-support-ticket ?

Worth asking @Team-OS-Platform-Release

@tsukraw Your best option is to open a support ticket so that we can assist you on updating the XOA registration.

Nice find! Is there's any plan for Debian to backport that patch?

@florent increasing the timeout value was the solution. Thank you.

@florent said in Problems import vm Vmware to Xcp-ng from import Vmware and OVA: @olivluca skip ssl check in the import form I already did that. In fact it connects and I can get a list of VMs to import.
