      Learning...

      I have two xcp-ng servers that I can access via SSH & XO Lite. Each could be added to XOA running on a remote host.

      I have now added both xcp-ng servers into the one pool and discovered that:
      a) I can only access XO Lite on the pool master Displays both hosts.
      b) I can ssh into both using the pool master's root login only
      c) I can add the pool master server to the remote XOA and both hosts appear

      This indicates that management of the hosts in a pool is via the pool master only in XO Lite and XOA

      I am curious about (b) above as the root user's password is now the pool master's root user password.

      Thanks

        That's perfectly normal and by design: only the master can be interacted with. Eg even with xe CLI on a slave, the command will be sent to the master in the end. Every info fetched or pushed must flow on the master, the only machine with the API and database in read/write. So it's not just XO or XO Lite, it's all clients must talk ONLY to the master.
