@benapetr said in New project - XenAdminQt - a cross-platform GNU/Linux, macOS, Windows native thick client: @Pilow I know them a little bit, I will have a look, but I am now working on another new cool thing! It's called xen_exporter: https://github.com/benapetr/xen_exporter It's a prometheus exporter that hooks directly to xen kernel via xenctrl library from dom0 and extract all low-level metrics from the host, allowing very detailed graphs with very low granularity with stuff I always missed in both XenOrchestra and XenAdmin: ... We have a similar project : https://github.com/xcp-ng/xcp-metrics, but unfortunately it's not used as of today (though it could get revived as Rust for Xen matures, i.e easier to build). There is also Xen Orchestra OpenMetrics support but it's not on XCP-ng itself.

That's a very good question, let me ask internally. Ping @pdonias he might know the answer

I know it's actively worked as we speak (ACLv2). So I would say this year at least It's in our (soon published) roadmap in the "Next" section, just after the "now".

@bleader thanks for the tip. You see my knowledge in redhat based systems is almost non existant. Think I'm almost 99% debian and 1% ubuntu (and that not by choice) So I will take care of redeploying the script as soon as I upgrade, should be easily noticeable since monitoring will loose access and yell at me.

@florent Awesome, i have patched a second location's XOA and am not experiencing the issue anymore there either.

@olivierlambert said in Rust-based guest-tools... How are things going?: The thing is that it works very well and doesn't need fixes… I know, not usual right? It was so stable that we left it like that waiting for people coming for bugs and nothing happened… We'll cut a 1.0 in the next weeks/months. I have indeed seen the stability of it myself. But the lack of updates made me worry anyway. But I'm really looking forward to the promotion to 1.0 as well. Thanks!

@rniesen Do you mean occasional hangs? Yes, Server 2025 is known to hang if these options are not present.

Hello, I have hardware issues, specially on the disks. Unfortunately I don't have fully access to the machine to be able to confirm if is effectively disks( more likely ) or back-plane. Interestingly some of those VMs does work, I can boot them and work with them but cannot copy the disks. Since those are Windows server VM I have also tried the Windows backup tool and this failed as well to perform to finish the backup. So I'm closing this investigation as hardware issue.

Just go to Settings > Servers tab in XO and remove the entry associated with this pool.

@mjr99 I bypassed it weeks ago. Didn't have to downgrade netbox. At the time. I upgraded to the latest Xo from sources. Then netbox worked. I shall be upgrading xo soon again Thank you all.

@nikade said in Every virtual machine I restart doesn't boot.: @DustinB yeah im guessing the VDI isn't attached to the VM for some reason, based on the screenshot. Im also wondering if he ever rebooted the VM's after installing them with PXE Right, it's a likely answer... but even then I would've expected his PXE server to just restart the installation process all over again... assuming that the disk is attached to the VM etc and that PXE boot isn't disabled automatically like it is with an ISO after first boot. haha

@benapetr said in Import from VMware err: name: AssertionError: Expected "actual" to be strictly unequal to: undefined: Hello, since this never had a clear resolution, here is explanation of the bug and why it happens: There is a bug in disk iteration in that XO vmware plugin (somewhere in that esxi.mjs I don't remember exact location) - it basically expects that all disks of VM exist in same datastore and if they don't it crashes as the next disk in unexpectedly missing (undefined) Workaround is rather simple - select the VM in vmware, migrate -> storage, disable DRS (important) and then select any DS that no disks current exist on. If you select and DS that is already used by same VM it will sometimes not get fixed! It also may happen even if VM is "apparently" looking like it's on single DS, even if it reports as such, still try to migrate it to another DS, and disable DRS so that really all files, even meta files are in same directory. Then run XO import again, it will magically work. thanks you for the input we were under the assumption that all the disk of a VM are in the same datastore the fix should be too hard now that you did the hard work edit: card created in our backlog, I will take a look after the release to see how hard it is to implement

@pilow As I am completly new to this scripting and such I did reach out to Ai for assistance and believe the license check should be bypassed now. Again not suggested to use in production. Use at your own risk. still has its own branch for more testing before merging to main branch.

@florent So If my Mikrotik router is sitting between XO and the HITRON and the HITRON is power cycled, because the Mikrotik is the gateway as far as XO is concerned and the gateway is not down, will the 10 minute timeout apply or might it timeout faster than that?

@Cyrille

Hi, does anyone have any tips regarding getting the serial port to show up in xcp-ng? I imagine this normally should just work.. I am not sure why it doesnt show up in xcp-ng, while it shows enabled in the bios?

@MichaelCropper Truenas on bare metal just as storage, XCP-NG is also bare metal on 3 hosts to make a pool. That's the minimum if you want to enable High Availability, it also works really well as a "normal" pool which is what I have. Rolling Pool functions are great, click the button and the system moves the VMS off of the host that need updates, reboots, moves VMs off of the next host, repeat. Only works with Shared storage.

If they can get Doom to run on a female healthcare product, I think we should work to get XCP-ng to work on said same product.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V1gcoyo5Ssk haha...
