      I'm new to XCP-ng & XO. So after installing XCP-ng on to my lab system: I installed the XOA management appliance. But the newly-installed XOA appliance doesn't have the '+ New' menu item at the bottom of the lefthand menu - i.e., The one that I've seen in all of the documentation and/or all of the YouTube videos.

      Am I overlooking something? Have I done something incorrect?

      TIA,

        Hi,

        Have you updated your XOA? See https://xen-orchestra.com/blog/how-to-start-with-xen-orchestra/

          @olivierlambert There are ten tips in that guide. But I don't see any tips (i.e., instructions) for updating XOA in that guide.

          Am I overlooking something?

          TIA,

            Then, updating is trivial (XOA/update)

              @olivierlambert After registering the appliance: Updating terminates with the log messages "Lost connection with the xoa-updater" and "xoa-updater could not be reached".

              Have I done something wrong?

              TIA,

                Have you refreshed the UI? (F5)

                  @olivierlambert Refreshing the status log and updating a second time retrieves/installs more updates.

                  After that: The '+ New' menu button appears in the menu on the left side of the window!

                  Thank you!
