@Pilow error reporting is a feature in itself . Thanks

Yay! Santa came early this year!!

@olivierlambert said in Xen Orchestra Node 24 compatibility: Can you reproduce the issue on XOA? Or it's only on the sources + your current OS? We do not have a XOA license (yet) which is why I am currently solely using XO from sources. Therefore currently not able to reproduce on XOA. OS is Debian 13.

@MathieuRA Thank you, perfect Br,

Yes!! Congrats for everyone (including you for the feedback @dcskinner !)

@hitechhillbilly no it doesn't, it just ensures the N-th vCPU of Dom0 only runs on N-th pCPU of the machine. Not sure about the practical impact of it, in the past it has been used for getting meaningful CPU temperatures from coretemp (with physical core matching virtual one), but that doesn't work anymore since Xen filters MSR accesses (including Dom0).

@Greg_E said in Building XCP-ng from source code: @olivierlambert Ok, thanks. Yes I'm eagerly awaiting XCP-ng 9 for testing. Hi, check this thread: https://xcp-ng.org/forum/topic/11698/xcp-ng-9.0-demonstrator-early-preview More coming...

@MathieuRA I disabled Traefik and reverted to my old XO config (port 443, ssl encryption, http to https redirection), rebuild the docker container using your branch and tested: it is working fine on my end now Thank you very much! I did not expect this to get fixed so fast!

@vaewyn There is an emergency transition to new master xe command. Also, make sure all your hosts are properly time syncronized to each other or there can be pool issues. Try first: xe pool-designate-new-master host-uuid=<new-master-uuid> If that fails, you will need to run on the slave server: xe pool-emergency-transition-to-master

@MajorP93 Thanks for your feedback. I'll look into it over the christmas hollidays

@benapetr Thanks, I will have to play with this when I have time.

@firereverie Sorry, these last few weeks was very-very busy. So I REALLY hope will do something on this before the december end and come back to you.

@Pilow I will take a look in deep later, but the key/delta and disk usage is set during backup, even if they are merged during LTR retention

In case anyone wonders how this played out. At the end of the day, I shutdown the host with the running workloads on it, kept it at BIOS boot so the 8.3 installer would upgrade it cleanly, and then booted it back up. For reasons related to my particular setup, the down time was more than 60 minutes. But that's not related to XCP-ng. The XCP-ng installer was maybe 10 of that. 20 of that was 3 reboots on a server that takes ages to boot. One thing that is a bit difficult is that the 8.3 installer doesn't notice ZFS volumes or help with ZFS. So after the upgrade, I have to follow a modified set of these instructions (modified because the package names have changed over time) to install ZFS and its components into the system. So the sequence is: Shutdown Install via ISO Reboot to single user mode Run yum update to pull in all the updates Run the ZFS commands to install ZFS on the host Reboot again Run normally Of course, I ended up rebooting more than just those 2 times, because I forgot that I would need to install ZFS (even though I did it on 2 different hosts already ) So now the pool is fully upgraded, everybody is happy. I'm now working on creating shared storage across the nodes. It's amateur hour over here. I appreciate all the help.

Another thing that I noticed: despite enabling remote syslog (to graylog) for all XCP-ng hosts in the pool /var/log gets filled up to 100%. Adding remote syslog seem to not change usage of /var/log at all. Official XCP-ng documentation states otherwise here: https://docs.xcp-ng.org/installation/install-xcp-ng/#installation-on-usb-drives The linked part of the documentation indicates that configuring remote syslog can be a possible solution for /var/log space constraints which seems to be not the case. I feel like logging could use some investigation by Vates in general.

Hi, I can't tell it's the cause, but you should first use an officially supported client to manage it.

@Greg_E said in XCP-ng Windows PV tools announcements: @john.c I'll have to update group policy and check that out, would be a time saver. Everything I use is an Enterprise level of some kind, using EDU in production right now, and Pro/Enterprise evaluation in the lab. I was looking at running a post imaging script to prevent some of the bloat, but a GPO might be easier. You can use Windows ADK to customise the installation media and build a custom ISO. That file can then be placed on your ISO SR. The GPO is especially effective when combined with a custom ISO built using Windows ADK. I have tried this myself and it’s very effective doing it this way, the Windows ADK tool is very powerful but will require time to learn. Will save time with all of the extra installations, if you use a custom ISO.
