        @dinhngtu I would prefer some standardized OS information for Windows systems, similar to this info:

        Get-ComputerInfo | Select-Object OsName, OsVersion, OsBuildNumber, OsArchitecture
              
        OsName                                            OsVersion  OsBuildNumber OsArchitecture
        ------                                            ---------  ------------- --------------
        Microsoft Windows Server 2025 Standard Evaluation 10.0.26100 26100         64-bit

          @dinhngtu Is it impossible to report the correct Windows version? Seems to be the "correct" solution....

            Sorry for the confusion, I was posting the output from my Windows 11 computer...

            On Server 2022 for example, it will report "Windows Server 2022 Datacenter 64-bit" instead. So the OS name should be correct wrt. client/server editions, i.e. it will not report as Windows 11 on Server 2025.

              @dinhngtu From my point of view this would be fine 🙂 So the systems can be distinguished even when the buildnumber is the same.

                Got a weird bug on these.

                Used xenclean to remove Citrix 9.4.1 drivers, installed the 9.0.9137-2 . Now if I live migrate a VDI, the agent gives up on that VM. Drivers are all working, just the agent needs reinstalling. Only got one pool to test it on, but its the same on all four hosts.

                Three VMS I migrated disks on;

                From Management Agent Detected before VDI migrated to agent missing after migration completion;
                vdi2.jpg

                All three are Server 2019 VMs.

                Any similar known issues?

                  @spelon Yes, it's known. I'll try to fix that in the next release.

                    @dinhngtu Hopefully before the next updates to xcpng. Rolling pool update moves all VM's....

                    Does this bug clear itself after a VM reboot? Or has the tools to be reinstalled? Is it only cosmetic or does it affect the running VM?

                    Havne't tried this myself and as we have moved all VM's to these new tools I'd like to be aware of what I can expect.

                      @manilx It's purely cosmetic and will clear on reboot.
