    @nvs Hi there, we had a similar issue with on our 5900x boxes. We have about a twenty of these and they have been generally greats hosts for xcp loads. However, one of them was constantly rebooting. While testing the ram the temp jumped to 90/90. They are running in 1U boxes so I expect heat but this seemed silly. We ramped the fans to max but this did not help. We then used bios to drop down various cpu boost profiles and gadgets to lower the heat and re-applied paste to cpu.. so far so good.

    I know this is old but I had a similar issue. In the end I told dracut NOT to reassemble my raid array which allowed the system to boot perfectly after. I have no idea why it tries to assemble the same array two but on the second seems to be important

    I am running NVIDIA P40s on a DELL R720/R730 and a NVIDIA A2000 12GB on a DELL Optiplex 9010 in my playlab. Getting the GPUs to be accessible for VMs was quite easy: shutdown the XCP-ng host, install the GPUs, start the host again, activate the GPU in the advanced settings of the host in the PCI Devices section (“Passthrough enabled”). The host will restart at this point after displaying a warning. That's it – the GPU can now be assigned to a VM in the VMs advanced settings. I do use the GPUs for AI workloads under Debian though, so your use case might vary.

    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

    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

    @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.

    @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!

    @robertblissitt yup, afterward this seems to be a good best practice... my hosts were up for 4 month, and because of DNS resolution problem had 77 patches to catch up (80 for one with advanced telemetry enabled) a rolling reboot would have probably put in front the initial migration/evacuation problem (and subsequent zombies VMs) and no patches applied, and no pool in a semi upgraded state note to my future self, try a rolling reboot first.

    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.

    @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!
