Both should work. Do you start xo-server in any specific way?
I'm using yarn start

This is my unit file:

root@xoa:~# cat /lib/systemd/system/xo-server.service
# Systemd service for XO-Server.

[Unit]
Description= XO Server
After=network-online.target

[Service]
WorkingDirectory=/opt/xen-orchestra/packages/xo-server/
#ExecStart=/usr/bin/node ./bin/xo-server
ExecStart=/usr/bin/yarn start
Restart=always
SyslogIdentifier=xo-server

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

Are you in UTC+1? This one might simply be because the VM's name shows the UTC time while, in the tables, we convert dates to your actual timezone.

Yes, I'm in CET, UTC+1 and 24h
Yes the Cont.Rep. VMs show UTC. During summertime, it was 2h off.
Its just cosmetics, not "urgent", but still in AM/PM

These are also still in AM/PM

Snapshots
backup jobs that run the Sequences schedule
The next run in job-schedule

Commit 035ee in dashboard
I'm not sure if it's a good idea to show a Backup issue every time a Cont.rep. job is run

It would be more or less a static feature for somebody who run Cont rep frequently. and as a consequence won't react when a proper alert should be displayed

@olivierlambert I may be a rarity in IT these days, but for most apps, I use Light Mode. v5 was good. I think the blue sidebar and gray top bar made it workable. v6 is painfully white. I'm not fond of the purple on black Dark Mode either. If we could just make the screen less bright than the sun, Light Mode would be great.

In a few places the grid column headers aren't really differentiated from the rest of the grid. For example, at the XOA level in the Pools tab. It looks like the first pool is called "Pool" when that is the column header. Maybe use the light purple that you have for the selected tab above?

Overall, I'm really liking the new interface.

Thanks!

I run these kinds of backup jobs

Full Backup x2
Delta backup
Continuous Replication
XO Config and Metadata

In ContRep, Conf/meta and in one of the Full Backup jobs I get Report when Never

But they are enabled in XO5 with mail address and Report when Skipped and failure

I use the "VM notes" feature in XO 5 for lots of things, and I appreciate having the markdown capability. It seems now these VM Notes are stuffed into a small "Description" field inside the "Quick Info" panel for a VM.

Currently in XO 6, it looks like my notes are getting truncated in this new description field, are there plans to preserve the "VM Notes" functionality? Or should I be backing them up now before I lose them?

Me too. They serve as important info, documentation, and other bits of info that needs to be quickly on-hand.

What I would like to add is a way to upload images and include them in the Markdown.

Thanks for the feedback, we'll fix that!

However, the periodic console refresh interrupts the performing of actual work

We'll investigate that issue, thanks for the report.

This definitely looks like a bug, we'll check that, thanks again!

Notes and descriptions are 2 separate things. We haven't added notes in XO 6 yet, but don't worry, we will! And XO 5 and XO 6 will be available side by side until XO 6 is fully usable, so you're not going to lose your notes, no need to back them up

Hi,

Just pulled the last commit and see that v6 become the "default" endpoint.

Unfortunatly, I have to rollback, any user can connect, SSO (oidc) is broken, I think it's not fully implemented yet ?

callback URL give a "Internal Server Error"; adding "/v5" make a loop with login screen...

There is any trick to diable v6 by default ? Or make OIDC works ?

Thank you and have a good day

@Kptainflintt Please provide us the XO-server log that concerns the connection error, authentication is supposed to work as before.

@MathieuRA

Hi,

That's the wired thing, no error in logs...

But I found why : I have "profile" scope in my OIDC configuration for a while, it seems to broke SSO in last version. Without it, it works.

Thank you
