@gduperrey
Both servers was last updated ~ 3 weeks agoI updated the other server the same way i updated the first one and its showing the graph
The first one still no graph after another reboot.
Netdata and XO is showing the graph by the way.Is there some log I can check
I have earlier ( a few month ago) had problems with no graphs shown at all but a change from dark to light mode and back to dark made them visible. But I dont remember what version it was and I have changed server after that.
-
@ph7 I've asked the xo-lite team if they can give us guidance on this or if they have any idea about the current state of this host.

@gduperrey
Its not importent to me, its just a simple homelab
I was just reporting if there was a bug.
The problematic "server":
Lenovo thinkcentre M715q
AMD Ryzen 5 2400GE
r8169 0000:01:00.0 eth0: RTL8168ep/8111epedit: thinkcentre

@ph7 : This issue seems to appear randomly. We are going to investigate further. Thank you for your feedback.

Greetings,
i have 8.3 running on my MS-01, it's working fine.
I upgraded my network setup with a pfsense VM and some VLAN's (still work in progress).
But, when i open my pfsense VM i'm getting this regular message:xenstore: could not write path attr/eth1.2/ip
the 1.2 is my VLAN2 on this interface. Is this a known issue/bug? If you need some logs, then ping me
-
@Houbsi Did you setup the pfsense VM according to the guide?

OMG! I have just noticed that on the latest beta of 8.3 the Garge Collector gives a percentage of completion in XO(a) "Tasks" and estimation of time to completion!
THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!!!
-
To be fair, this feature was developed by XAPI developers at XenServer, as far as I remember
That's a benefit of open source.
-
But the display inside XO and the time left computation is done by XO
-
Actually, another cool feature I just noticed is that I am now able to take snapshots of my Windows 11 VM's with vTPM attached.. So.. The day is just getting better and better..
I havent tried doing a backup / export yet.. I think that if it worked, I would be overwhelmed with to0 much good news for a single day and faint LOL
-
IIRC, that should work now
-
Indeed.

Any updates coming for 8.3.? It seems like 8.2 had a slew come out last weekish. No biggie...all is well....just curious.
-
Yes, big update coming for 8.3

@stormi
Cool...look forward to it! -
Hello @stormi @olivierlambert
Is there any real performance difference between installing XCP-NG host on BIOS mode vs installing it on UEFI mode? (Not the VMs, I mean the host itself)
Is there any benefit of installing xcp-ng using uefi, considering we can still have uefi VMs even if we install the host in BIOS mode... correct ?
