Hi, I am Karlis, I manage small server/network infrastructure, our VMs are hosted on Xenserver. Some time ago we needed to redesign management and backup system for our VMs and we found XO. Now we are in process to upgrade our hosts to XCP-NG.
-
Hi! Funny thing: we did the same "process" here XS, then XS+XO, then XCP-ng+XO
-
Hi @karlisi same thing happened to us at work

Hello! I am Esyx. I am relatively new to virtualization. My background is mainly with consumer level hardware, and doing things on bare-metal. After playing around with an RPi for the past year or so, and exploring the things I can do in terms of self-hosting for my extended family... I have decided to start building a home lab in hopes of learning system administration, and hope to start going for certifications soon to make a career change. I chose to use XCP-NG, (also using Xen Orchestra), because I love what you guys are doing. Keep up the great work!

Heyho o/
well, my name should be obvious, as it is displayed in that neat little html element next to the date above. What do I do? I do all sorts of IT related things in a mid-sized enterprise in Austria. Fairly new to all the virtualization stuff as I once upon a time just was just a software developer and now I sit here in a sysadmin chair XD Even the programming times were at the time Java 1.4 came out. Sooo quite a bit rusty on all edges
I am happy to say, that I can operate pretty free here. So I can test out different new things I have not seen yet and try to integrate that in our company if useful. xcp-ng is one of the things to try. -
Hello everybody, my name is Martín, from Spain (so sorry for my poor English). I've been administering xenserver since 2010, fortunatelley, not too hard, beucause it works like a charm the most of the time. After being stalled in xenserver 7.2 for years, I've finally convinced my boss to move to xcp-ng, so here I am, with a new pool of 5 Lenovo SN550 and a fresh install of XCP-NG. Initially, we are doing with xcp-ng center to smooth the transition, although I'm running a XOA VM for a long, curiously I can't register it, but it is another story that I'll post as soon as I find the correct section.
Thanks for all your effort on the project and selfless help.

@Martín-Lorente Welcome!

Hey there
I go by machine22,Not from around here Alien I am cyber security Analyst by Profession. I like running Labs before deploying systems in a live environment where i begin pentesting or learning a new technology and the rest you know what comes. I am a huge advocate for open source software when bored i like to break things looking for weaknesses.

Welcome!

Hi Guys!
I am the CTO at a technology company, we are a big VMWare house (for now ). Really excited to dive into more XCP-NG. We did work with Citrix a couple of years ago, as a part of a very lengthy quotation process, but ultimately decided to stick with VMWare.
We are a software development company, so love the fact XCP-NG is open source, and we can contribute / modify it as we see fit.
Thanks @olivierlambert for all the work in getting it off the ground;
James

Welcome @jgibbons !
Feel free to share here, any work/contribution but also all your questions
Also, XCP-ng is a real teamwork thing: both inside Vates but also with this great community.
-
@olivierlambert Really looking forward to exploring its capabilities!
-
@olivierlambert Thank you so much for your hard work! XCP-ng is incredible!

Hello everyboby, my name is Peter, i am living in Austria.
I'm a noob to XCP-ng, i used Vitrualbox and VMWare for a while in home use.
After i looked to a lot of youtube videos during lockdown i desided to rebuild an older PC and install XCP-ng on as replacement.
This summer i would like to replace/virtualize some old machines my Sportclub uses for tournament results and their digital locking system and migrate them to one machine with XCP-ng installed.
So i have a lot to learn. -
I'm here because I love self-hosting and I want to meet others who love self-hosting as well. I'm new to using XCP-ng but I think I'll enjoy it, and I prefer virtual machines over Docker. I will be using Docker, but using Docker within a virtual machine will isolate it even further and layers are always healthy. I love Linux, but it'll be cool to try out Windows Hyper-V Server within a virtual machine as well. I'm down to chat with anyone about anything self-hosting, don't be shy.

Hello,
I'm a senior Linux sysadmin mainly using vmWare based solutions for my customers.
As a big fan of opensource and DIY my home lab is based on a KVM virtualization solution based on libvirt and a bunch of custom scripts that automate most of the things and runs pretty well.
I'm looking for a new solution that would allow me to use it as a home lab and at professional level and solution that could also be used via infrastructure as code solutions (i.e terraform/cloud-init/ansible/puppet, etc).
I'm currently discovering xcp-ng and xen-orchestra that both look great.
I would have
somemany questions very soon... -
Welcome @mco-system !

I'm a broad spectrum hobbyist when it comes to software and technology. At first I started with my own blog and using a vps on digital ocean, and quickly became interested in the devOps side of web development. I moved onto Continuous Integration (Atlassian Bamboo), then I was interested in Vagrant, provisioning with puppet & chef. I work in manufacturing, but I have a long list of projects for my personal home/office lab. Cheers!
