    @john.c I've put this on the feedback portal as a feature request, so it doesn't get buried in a thread that started out about pool masters: https://feedback.vates.tech/posts/121/publish-build-date-and-package-manifest-sbom-with-the-xoa-xva-download . As far as I know votes there help the team prioritise, so if you and @Forza want it, that's the place to say so. There's an open PR adding SBOM generation (https://github.com/vatesfr/xen-orchestra/pull/10368), but going by the files it touches it covers XO's own JavaScript dependencies, not the Debian packages in the appliance. I've only looked at the file list, not the code, so happy to be corrected. How often the downloadable XVA gets rebuilt, I still don't know: @Danp said back in 2024 that it isn't rebuilt for every XOA release (https://xcp-ng.org/forum/post/81220), which would fit the 2025.12 tag, but I'd rather not guess beyond that.

    Glad the ticket sorted it, @jacob.becker, and thanks for coming back to say so. I don't know whether a patch for the stable channel is planned before 6.9 moves there. If someone else on stable lands here with the same Body Timeout Error, opening a ticket like you did seems to be the quickest route for now.

    @bug-meister Yeah, I would say the "mechanism" is deprecated too. Getting this mechanism to work, either by using ansible-pull or by some clever scripting during the first boot, requires Ansible to be preinstalled on your VM templates. That just makes your VMs messy and bloated with additional stuff you only use once. Also, managing Ansible versions becomes more complex. If Ansible is installed from distro repositories, you will have all different versions of Ansible across different distros. If you use pip to install Ansible, it can mess up your system if Ansible dependencies are installed on a system level. You can use Python virtual environments to prevent that but requires additional managing. It's much better and much more practical to have Ansible installed and used from a single place - Control Node. That way you have one place, one OS, one Ansible version to think about. You already have a machine you are accessing your VMs from? Use that as a control node... unless it is Windows?

    @acebmxer I would have said the logs depend on how you deployed XO. Basically it would be an error printed when you ran yarn start. But it depends if XO is started with systemd or something else. But as you found yourself the solution... this is not needed anymore for now. I'll see if we can report an helpful message in XO. Something like "Cannot reach docker.sock. As you're running a RedHat like distro, ensure SELinux rules let sshd reach it. See this link for more... Etc."

    @john.c @poddingue I am very happy to report that I am no longer receiving the "XOA Unable to connect xo server every 30s" message on the Chrome browser of my Windows 11 PC, as of today, after updating the XO-CE VM and all xcp-ng hosts. I just updated the XO-CE VM to master, commit 70b08, and ran a rolling pool update of my 3 xcp-ng hosts. Thank you to the Vates team.

    Update - changes are live in the dev branch now. So figured out the update / switching branches for the proxy by connecting the proxy to my xoa free account. That triggered the available update to next version. From there I found the command that needs to be ran on the proxy to switch back and forth... [image: Screenshot_20261009_143546.png] Latest branch [image: Screenshot_20261009_144414.png] stable branch [image: Screenshot_20261008_202716.png] Backup job ran sucessful. 2026-10-09T17_48_25.447Z - backup NG.txt After the proxy has been deployed... The proxy has been registered with your Xen Orchestra instance. You can manage it from the Xen Orchestra web interface. Next: register the proxy's updater and move it to the 'latest' channel. On the pool master (IP), set a password for the proxy's 'xoa' user (choose your own) and reboot the proxy VM: xe vm-param-set uuid=UUID xenstore-data:vm-data/system-account-xoa-password='<your password>' xe vm-reboot uuid=UUID SSH to the proxy as 'xoa' (IP) and run: sudo xoa-updater register - This registers it with your vates account. sudo xoa-updater configure-channel xo-proxy-appliance-latest - set to latest or stable sudo xoa-updater upgrade - This can be ran via the UI or this command. Both need to be done twice to do the upgrade and/or downgrade. register needs a free xen-orchestra.com account; see the README. And host connected via proxy. [image: Screenshot_20261009_150011.png]

    Thanks for coming back with that. Commit 8c2f3 is PR #10518 (https://github.com/vatesfr/xen-orchestra/pull/10518), and the changelog lists it under XO 6.9.1 from 5 October, so XOA users get it with 6.9.1, on the latest channel for now if I read the release channels right.

    @yannsionneau Hi, I really appreciate the effort, but unfortunately I had to migrate to another hypervisor on this server and it's already away and running. However, when I get a new one I will make sure to test this and report back. Thanks anyway.

    @jp13232 @peek have you tried following this: https://docs.xcp-ng.org/compute/#pci-passthrough ? Also, you can have a look there: https://xcp-ng.org/forum/topic/12523/igpu-pci-passthrough-new-experimental-packages-need-testers if you finally manage to do the passthrough but have "vbios issues" like explained in the thread.

    So, for everyone who wants to install NUT as a service follow these steps. Modifying the systemd files can make you system unbootable! It should not happen, but there is chance since we are also modifying some "natively shipped files". So an update can break your working configuration again and that is not the fault of XCP-NG!!! As prerequisite it requires the installation and testing of this step-by-step guide https://xcp-ng.org/forum/post/104253. Make sure everything runs before proceeding to the following steps! Now: ################################# Remove "nut-driver.target" dependency ################################# Remove "nut-driver.target" dependency from "nut-server.service" by calling nano /lib/systemd/system/nut-server.service and remove nut-driver.target from routine.

    @herhin2017 said: @john.c Your absolute wright, i do my best and train about 25 young engineers per year on linux (we use debian). I also see more and more startups or small companies building their infrastructure on linux. Best greetings from austria It may be worth getting in line and noting the mention of EFI based servers for official Vates support with XCP-ng version 9.0 and above, in government reports. That way when the school’s hardware is refreshed it can be ensured that your provided with EFI capable servers, in time for XCP-ng version 8.3 EOL. I personally are already ready for XCP-ng version 9.0 due to my servers being Dell PowerEdge R620 for XCP-ng hosts. Along with Debian version 13.6 on the VMs. While using a Dell Precision 3590 to manage those systems. The “wright” makes your above now sound like a wheel wright, and its profession instead of “right” in for when correct or agreeing with someone or something.

    Data point from a 2-host XCP-ng 8.3 pool that supports @tosh's diagnosis, plus a no-patch workaround that gave us ~2.7x until the TCP_NODELAY fix lands. Setup XCP-ng 8.3, xapi-core / vhd-tool 26.1.16-1.2.xcpng8.3, dom0 kernel 4.19.0+1 Two hosts, local ext SRs on NVMe (Samsung 970 EVO Plus / WD Red SN700) Dedicated migration network: 2.5 GbE (Intel i226-V, igc), MTU 9000, no errors Offline storage migration (halted VM, VM.migrate_send) of 2 VDIs (disk + snapshot), 16 GiB virtual / 7773 MiB allocated each; sparse_dd ... -prezeroed ... -dest-proto nbd over TLS Baseline (stock) 132 s per VDI, i.e. ~59 MiB/s on the wire, flat line, same in both directions Link at ~20 % of line rate, source SR read latency 0.3 ms, dom0 total <= 0.5 vCPU, no single dom0 vCPU above 0.08 (RRD, 60 s averages) Sending host with turbo or capped at 2.5 GHz gave the same 132 s, so not CPU-bound here Workaround: disable delayed ACKs on the receiver, only for the migration-network route # on the destination host; adapt prefix/dev/src to the output of: ip route show <migration-net> ip route change 10.10.10.0/24 dev xenbr1 proto kernel scope link src 10.10.10.1 quickack 1 With the receiver ACKing immediately, Nagle on the sender only waits one RTT instead of the ~40 ms delayed-ACK timer. Result (same VM, same direction, same data) stock quickack 1 on receiver per VDI 132 s / 132 s 50 s / 46 s throughput ~59 MiB/s ~155-169 MiB/s whole migration 4:50 2:00 dom0 on the receiver went up to ~1.1 vCPU total, still nothing saturated. Caveats One run per arm, one pool. I did not capture ss -ti during the runs, so the notsent:512 signature is inferred, not observed here. It does not address the reply gating @TeddyAstie described, it only removes the delayed-ACK half. Consistent with that, we land at ~2.7x, below the ~4.3x reported above for TCP_NODELAY (different rig, so not directly comparable). Not persistent: lost on reboot and when xapi re-plugs the PIF. We re-apply it from a small systemd unit at boot as a stopgap and will remove it once vhd-tool ships TCP_NODELAY. Scope is only connections routed via the migration network (storage and live migration). More ACK packets on that link, nothing else changes. Is there a PR or issue for the TCP_NODELAY patch in xapi-project/xen-api that we can follow? I could not find one.
