🛰️ XO 6: dedicated thread for all your feedback!

And sadly...the documentation for GPU passthrough states currently, due to proprietary code in Xenserver (blah!), NVIDIA is not (yet) supported

Hi Vates Dev folks. I have a suggestion on the XO6 UI - when you click an object in the left navigation pane, then select a view on the right (VMs, Storage, or Network for example), can you make the various column headers sortable? Would be nice to be able to sort column headers when wanting to look for various data in a given view. Thanks!

Hi @acebmxer,
Can you check again if issue is still present ? (we fixed some redirections in the last few days)

Hi, Thanks, and yes we have this in our backlog, and also the multi-selection in tables for bulk edition. We'll keep you posted.

Yes verified links working correctly now.

@julienXOvates Great, thanks Julien!

@julienxovates - you have any "insider info" on when virtual GPU (vGPU) passthrough will be able to be implemented? Not regular GPU passthrough, but virtual...and with NVIDIA. (my preference) I guess I can use some other card (recommendations appreciated) until it is supported. Is that moreso on the Citrix Xen side of your OS, or some other road block?

Second question - when do you all plan to implement V2V in XO6?..specifically V2V from VMW. That would be a nice & strong add-in imo.

Thanks.

@olivierlambert - I'm sure you all (I hope) heard the news Broadcom took down access to its VMware SDDK Toolkit, which of course is a vital part of your V2V Migration tool. That will greatly affect migration ability, or lack thereof, for quite a few potential customers. Are you all in the works for a new migration strategy? I was able to install VDDK on my XO on Sources a while back so I currently have it. But, if I do "pull the trigger" and choose XCP to migrate to for my org, this will be a big deal. And granted, any solution out there has this issue. Just curious of your thoughts on this horrific development from Broadcom....

@coolsport00
vGPU support (in general and for NVidia) is more a project on XCP-ng side, there's no timeline yet. Not sure if it's a project upstream (Xen Project).

About V2V : we're actively working on it (to remove the dependency to the VDDK), in order to unlock V2V migrations ASAP, stay tuned...
