@hoh This is SOOO long in the tooth........... Always was annoying. Thx for findinf a fix, looking forward to it.

@TeddyAstie Attached is the output you requested xen-cpuid -p.txt

UPDATE: its been 2 days and as I suspected the VDI is still waiting to coalesce at a length of 1, The GC does not seem to be cleaning it up. Does anyone have suggestions for how to remove this orphaned VDI and base copy. I'm not interested in saving the VM just cleaning up the remnants of the botched migration and removal.

I am trying to setup the same VxLAN Private Network between two pools. I have been running XO from sources (commit 813514821) for a while now and encountered the same error "No PIF found in center". Therefore I updated to the latest commit 60ba5070c (still using XO v5) and now I was able to create a VxLAN private network that spans two pools without an error. I checked the networks for both pools and noticed that two networks were created per pool, so I was able to create it despite the error from the older XO version. However, using either VxLAN to connect two VMs in different pools doesn't work. Pinging a VM over that VxLAN in the same pool and host works, but pinging a VM from another Pool doesn't work. This is also the case when using GRE, Looking at the ARP Table, it seems that the VMs from different pool do show up, but as incomplete: [image: 1774432891674-screenshot-from-2026-03-25-10-59-34.png] 172.30.0.10 is the VM in the same pool as work (172.30.0.30), 172.30.0.20 is the VM from a different pool. I manually set the MTU size in each VM to 1450 just to be sure. I have two pools with one server each. This is due to CPU feature mismatch. Each host is connected via a bond of two SFP+ Ports (which have default MTU 1500) to a switch that allows all VLANs. Using normal VLAN Networks does work with multiple pools.

Regarding the restore thing, it's clearly sub optimal, can you submit an improvement feedback directly to https://feedback.vates.tech?

@gduperrey Worked swell, thanks

@dinhngtu Yeah, I suspected that as well. So I inspected the SR and it showed connected to both hosts (at least in the XO UI - I didn't drop to the CLI to really confirm). By altering my workflow a bit and slowing down, I seem to have found the right "sweet spot" of delay and the issue hasn't resurfaced. Here's what I'm doing now, when I need to revert the snapshots of all three VMs: In the XO VM list, I select the three VMs and power them off at the same time. I then start with VM1 and eject the ISO, VM2 and eject the ISO, then VM3 and eject the ISO. By the time I circle back to VM1 for the next step, about 10-15 secs have elapsed. I then start with VM1 and revert the snapshot, and repeat the same on VM2 and VM3. By the time I circle back to VM1 for the next step, another 10-15 secs have elapsed. I re-attach the ISO to all three VMs in sequence. Another 10-15 secs elapse. I then start with VM1 and power all three VMs sequentially. The entire workflow takes about 30-45 secs, and I'm finding that by doing this, the issue hasn't resurfaced.

@nikade more beautiful than scary, it goes in an usual place where no one lives as you can see on satellite view it's an effusive éruption, not explosive, i was barely 100m when taking photos and you can also poke lava with a stick if you want (but need appropriate masks because of harming gazes like sulfur) not the first time it goes to the sea, the island expands slowly no casualties except from some fishes

@blueh2o Ooops, sorry - I read your message the wrong way around. You're right, that sounds really weird in your case....

@florent I rebuilt my XCP hosting environment (everything is faster and bigger stuffed into one rack).... and this issue is now worse. The main changes to this new setup are 2x40Gb networking, faster NFS NVMe NAS, faster pool servers, more memory, much faster CR destination machine with ZFS. Running XCP 8.3 (March 2026 updates) and XO (master a2e33). Replication is leaving many attached to control domain every day with NBD connection set to 2. Changing it to 1 seems to resolve the issue (no more stuck to control domain).

@yann Item Opened on Gitlab.

@olivierlambert Can you provide insights? Is nested virtualization as in running Hyper-V inside a XCP-ng VM expected to work?

@TeddyAstie That's more like it. I'm not finding the com2tcp though. I at least have something to search for. Once configured, is this persistent or do I need to create some sort of start up script that runs/loads a config on machine boot? Thanks!!

Found issue in my script all seems to be working now for me just no vmware vm to test import on
