RE: XCP-ng 8.3 updates announcements and testing
Thanks for the reply back. Update when sucessfull. Windows Server 2025 iso now properly installs.
At work I was not able to install default certs for UEFI due to one failing to download. Run these updates and I was able to successfully install the certs to the host.

RE: Is v6 preview not available on XO from source?
Reach out to who's script you are using for deploying XO from sources.
This script - https://github.com/ronivay/XenOrchestraInstallerUpdater there is an option in the config file to enable XOv6. There are concerns with not being fully ready to its disabled by default. I currently have not any issues related to that.

RE: Error installing windows PV drivers 9.0.9137
@dinhngtu Well those directions didnt work as I was unable to locate the setup.exe file in any of the vmware directories. I asked google ai how to force uninstall the vmware tools and started to follow those directions of maunally deleting the services and folder and registry entries. However the vm pysically became unbootable. It would not show the logo of the bios starting up. The vm would appear to be starting up but no console screen would load. I even tried to restore from a backup taken two days ago. That VM started up and of coarse windows wanted todo updates and vm became unbootable again.
I deleted all previous vm and did a fresh migration. This time i did remove the tools prior to the migration. VM is back working.

@dinhngtu same mine where two fresh VMs fresh install of server 2025. Older iso works newer iso does not. For me the newer iso the system rebooted 2 maybe 3 times then crashed to a hard power off of the vm.
Again no xen tools installed as os never finished installing on a fresh vm. no OS upgrade.

RE: VM Pool To Pool Migration over VPN
@olivierlambert thank for that. Just to be clear the vm was not runing but shut down if that makes a difference.
@ph7 Both firewalls are Unifi Enterprise fortress gateways. - https://techspecs.ui.com/unifi/cloud-gateways/efg?subcategory=all-cloud-gateways
Both sites are setup with Site Magic VPN. So should be full 1.1gbps if accurate.

RE: Network Management lost, No Nic display Consol
@nikade Can you elaborate on that more for us? Do you create a new pool with existing host? if so how? or do you pull a host make new pool from that host and migrate the rest over?

RE: VM Pool To Pool Migration over VPN
@nikade
Doing the copy vm with compression moved at double the speed shown in above screenshots. And finish in half the time. Since it was a copy job it left a copy of the vm on both locations. However starting the copied vm from its original location showed no issues. I then deleted the vm no longer needed in other location.So question why did vm migration take so long vs vm copy. both instances the vm was powered off.

RE: VM Pool To Pool Migration over VPN
That is much faster throughput wise. Time wise will seems about the same or longer.

RE: VM Pool To Pool Migration over VPN
Switches between host on both side are 10gb switchs and nics. only 1gb connection is ISP on both locations. While I didnt expect it to be using the full 1gb i would have thought it would be higher then what it is. Maybe VPN overhead.
As stated this task is not something I would be doing on the regular. So i can live with those speeds. If anyone else has any other ideas to look into or other confirmation please let me know.
