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: 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.

RE: Windows 2025 Standard 24H2.11 (iso release of sept 25) crash on reboot with "INACCESSIBLE BOOT DEVICE 0x7B" in XCP 8.2.1 and XCP 8.3
@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: Veeam backup with XCP NG
Correction XCP-NG backups are Application aware... Just not accessible from the right click menu on the backup. If you click from the menu bar at top it is available...

RE: 1 out of 6 vms failing backup
I thought restarting tool stack affected both host? Either way did try that but on host 1 originally. So i restarted on host 2 (where problem is). still no locked. I rebooted host 2 and that seem to do the trick. Took a few min for garbage collection to complete. All clean now.
Thanks.

Mirror Incremental or Mirror Full backup Tags???
Not sure this as been mention before You create a tag called "Backup" and in your backup job you can have it backup every vm with that tag. Why is this not an option for Mirror jobs? I have some VMs i want to mirror to another Remote while others not so much.
Having tags would make this a lot easier to manage. So you dont have to re-edit the mirror job to add or remove a vm to be mirrored.

RE: visual bug / backup state filter

Backups not working
Last night 2 of my vms failed to complete a delta backup. As the tasks could not be cancled in any way i rebooted XO (built from sources) the task still show "runing" so i restarted the tool stack on host 1 and the tasks cleared. I attempted to restart failed backups and again the backup just hangs. It create the snapshot but never transfer data. The Remote is the same location as the nfs storage the vms are running from. So i know the Storage is good.
A few more rebooted of XO and tool stack. I rebooted both host and each time backups get stuck. If i try to start a new backup (same job) all vms hang. I tried to run a full delta backup and same. I tried to update XO but I am on current master build as of today (6b263) I tried to do a force update and still backup never completes.
I built a new VM for XO and installed from sources and still fail.

Here is one of the logs from the backups...

RE: ISO Importing Results in .img Files
I just uploaded xcp-ng-8.3.0.iso and this is what i seee... I changed the file name to xcp-ng-8.3.iso before upload to prevent duplication file.


Edit - I just tried to upload direct to xo-ce and same outcome.

RE: XOA license issue
@Danp said in XOA license issue:
@acebmxer It looks like you've resolved the first issue by binding the trial license. You haven't yet purchased support, so you won't be able to bind licenses to your XCP-ng hosts. This has no effect on the functionality of the hosts.
Ok thank you for the update that this is expected behavior. We do plan to pay for support just need to take care of a few things on our side before we do so.

RE: Host 2 shows Error but works just fine...
That pic was taken from the host tab. But yes I removed from the settings tab and host 2 still shows under pool 1 and all looks ok.
Thank you.

RE: XCP-ng 8.3 and Dell R660 - crash during boot, halts remainder of installer process (bnxt_en?)
@umbradark or anyone from Vates.
I have not read all the details so I apologize up front. Not sure if this is helpful or note but I have at work 2 Dell R660 with 8.3 running no issues this was from a fresh install. I did not have to disable any nic in bios but i am not using the BCM5720 but it is there and active if i wanted to.
So far everything is stable that I can tell. If you need me to pull any information that will help just let me know. Below is my hardware information.
