Hi! See https://docs.xcp-ng.org/releases/release-8-3/#4k-native-disks and https://docs.xcp-ng.org/storage/#largeblock-sr Note that qcow2 format is supporting 4k natively, and it's in release candidate stage, maybe the right approach in a near future

Something to document @thomas-dkmt

Hi! ISO-SR over HBA/FC would be very nice, especially when migration form a SAN vmware-System to XCP-NG. One other thing is altering. Errors like "VM cannot be migrated" or similar should not be silent but should be very visible / even mailed to the admin. Another thing (could be cosmetical though) in my opinion is that a failed Rolling upgrade remains visible with a half fulled progress bar in the task-view. this is confusing.

Mentioning also @Team-Hypervisor-Kernel who now manages the drivers. Maybe it's related to https://github.com/xcp-ng-rpms/microsemi-aacraid/issues/2#issuecomment-3837183087 It looks like the switch to the vendor driver instead of the kernel built-in for 8.3 (initiated by XenServer, and that we followed at the time as it was probably made in order to support newer cards) was not without drawbacks. 0nelight created this issue in xcp-ng-rpms/microsemi-aacraid open Microsemi Adaptec Series-8 Card not working in XCP-NG 8.3 #2

@henri9813 Ahh alright, I understand now! Thanks for clarifying.

I just want to add that I am seeing the same issue with Ubuntu 24.04.3. Creating a VM does work, but it crashes immediately when trying to start it for setup. I have not yet tried the approach of starting with 24.04(.00) and then upgrading to the lastest version due to lack of time. We are still using XCP-NG 8.2.1 on the server in question. If an upgrade to 8.3 solves the issue, please let us know. Reading the thread, it appears to have the same problem, though. Processor is an AMD Ryzen 9 3900X. We have not had any other issues with the system and it's been running for a few years.

@dinhngtu I think it just have been a bad migration or the Win 11 Template did other things to the windows 10 os. Since new test vm did not show the time issues, and a fresh migration of the vim with correct template selected did not have the issues either. I dont know but maybe there is a way to put detect the correct VM template or make note. I didnt think using the win 11 template would have caused issues since using the "wrong" template on vm creation does not have the same effect.

@Tristis-Oris There are many features missing since it's alpha now, but you can open bug tracker request on github if you want to keep track of progress for this particular feature.

@wilsonqanda Make sure to turn off "Network" in boot order. You might also want to increase the VM's root disk size when creating it. Here's a full cloud config that I used (except the ssh keys): #cloud-config hostname: {name} ssh_authorized_keys: - ssh-rsa ... disable_root: false apt: sources: xen-guest-agent: filename: xen-guest-agent.list source: deb [trusted=yes] https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/xen-project%252Fxen-guest-agent/packages/generic/deb-amd64/ release/ append: false packages: - xen-guest-agent

@MathieuRA As announced, I have now installed branch xo6/update-site-dashboard and it seems to be working. It no longer loads endlessly and shows me that I haven't configured anything yet Thank you very much!

@olivierlambert so strange though. i have it enabled on 4 pools, that didn't propagte on hosts. still VM boots up when not needed as explained on fist post of the thread. i'll try différent combinations to see what's really going on

Thanks, we need to update this!

To elaborate: it was already in progress, but delayed due to 1. the fact that I underestimated the impact (I thought we'd overwrite the file only when we'd modify it, not every update the package) and 2. lots of other priorities keeping the team busy. But it's clearly the reminder, and the help in better diagnosing it, that allowed to have it re-prioritized and (partly, we've mostly bought time to fix it properly, by simply avoiding to touch the file at all at the moment) fixed so fast.

Ouch. @andyhhp in case that trace rings a bell.

My current findings regarding this: https://github.com/xcp-ng-rpms/microsemi-aacraid/issues/2 0nelight created this issue in xcp-ng-rpms/microsemi-aacraid open Microsemi Adaptec Series-8 Card not working in XCP-NG 8.3 #2

@florent As it turns out, the job completed the next time it ran and this task went away, not sure why that first one failed but it seems to be OK for now. I will update this if I see this error again and be sure to include as many logs as I can. Thanks as always!

@bleader Hopefully the palm print on my forehead isn't visible from where you are sitting. Of course the interface needs an IP address. In my defense, normally for something like this, I wouldn't put it on the bonded interface with all the trunked VLAN's for guest traffic (we don't give that one an IP) and it would go on the other bonded interface that isn't trunked and does get an IP, but these are test hosts and I didn't set up the other bond, so it is pulling double duty. I was able to set the IP's and get SDN working. Thanks!

@dave.opc that's it keep us updated on this
