      I really miss the description column XO5 has in the default/home view. I understand space is limited for the tree view, but maybe it could appear when a host is selected in the tree view?

      In XO6, you will see it if you click on the eye at the end of the row, then on the right panel.
      Is this OK ?

      Personally I don't really find the rightmost pane/section all that usefull. It's to narrow to have any clear information. And it also leads to the other panels being smaller than they (imho) need to be able to show their base information as well.
      This is especially noticable when using windows sizes narrower than 1080p.

      The rightmost pane I hope will get either removed, and redone in UI v7. Because right now XO5 is far more informational than that is.

      Sorry for jumping on with my two cents.

        @jr-m4 do you know you can collapse the side bar? Use the hamburger icon just after "Xen Orchestra" title to do so.

          Yes, but it is the rightmost pane that I'm not agreeing with.
          The left most "tree-view"-sidebar is quite usefull. And has imho good potential.

            Ah sorry I read it too quickly. This panel is only there in some occasions, but I see the point of only displaying it when we click on a relevant element. Feedback for you @julienxovates

              While on the topic of the tree-view panel.
              Have you noticed that the indentation changes if there is a chevron indicating that there are VMs on a host? Making it so that the hosts no longer are alinged vertically

                  Afternoon, my session timed out and I do get the normal login page, but when I login I get this UiAlert Message:

                  ... and after back-paging, I was able to login normally.

                    Slow booting on Debian 13 VM created from a template

                    I recently tried cloning a VM from a template (created from a full install of Debian 13). What was noticed was that the system takes forever to boot when the VM is created from XO-6. The issue does not happen in XO-5. The VM seems to hang at the TianoCore boot screen Hang.png.

                    What I noticed is that when the VM is cloned with XO-6 the boot order somehow changes to Network boot as the first option

                    BootOrder.png

                    This does not happen (change of boot order) if the VM is cloned from XO-5 and there is no boot delay. The boot process seems to wait for more than 2 minutes before it fails network boot and then proceeds normally to boot from the Hard drive
                    Hang2.png

                    Thanks

                    Hi @escape222,
                    For info boot order issue has been resolved in XO 6.5 !

                      And that seems to be more accurate

                      Hi @ph7,
                      The VDI storage used space with snapshots has been fixed in XO 6.5 !

                              The faulty ones are on local SR
                              If I take a manual snapshot on a NFS VM, I see the correct value

                              Will test a scheduled one

                                      Here is a small usability suggestion. In the Resources dashboard, in Pool view and Host view, positions of CPU and RAM are swapped. I occasionally get a brain freeze when switching between Host and Pool dashboard.

                                            Yes, that's one of the next big pieces we're going to add to XO6 UI !
