    • RE: XCP-ng - XOA vs. XOCE

      @Danp Thanks for the reply and I understand. Since this is project is Open Source with Commercial offerings. I think it is good to show what are the differences in one place. With caveat that the OSS project is actually only source code and compiled executable is not provided.

      Hope the big Kahuna can consider this :).

      @CloudX0520

      Very weird that you have https://localhost/ , local host only works if your browser is on the same hardware but yours is a mobile phone.

      Hi,

      I am asking what are the process involved in migrating a Microsoft Server 2016 with Always On Availability Group or SQL Server Failover Cluster Instance from a VMWare to xcp-ng ?. Thank you.

    • RE: XCP-ng 8.3 with VM crashing

      @Riven,

      What I am not sure is how Xen arrange the CPU, is it core first followed by the SMT/HyperThread Core? or is it alternating ie RealCore, HyperThread Core.

    • RE: XCP-ng 8.3 with VM crashing

      I have installed a fresh set of RAM and still the system crash randomly with some of the crashes with crash log but some does not.

      This happen on a daily basis it is either the VM reboots or Host. I notice that with the crash log there is a consistent pattern of SVM error in CPU8 and once on CPU11.

      I then tried to disable the CPU8 and CPU11 from the cpu pool. There is no reboot from VM or Host for the last 7 days. Any ideas on why?.

    • RE: XCP-ng 8.3 with VM crashing

      @joebeasley Mine is more of one or more VM will auto reboot and sometime one VM will be not be accessible (cannot ssh or console from XO) (CPU 99%, no network or disk activity as seen in XO and need to force reboot). After that a few hours later the Host will reboot. This is happening every day now.

      I am seeing a lot of this in the host dmesg.

    • RE: XCP-ng 8.3 with VM crashing

      @andyhhp Unfortunately no, I do not have another machine to test out the CPU. I have ordered another set of 2x16GB of RAM to test if it is RAM issue.

      Will report back.

      It is a default install of the Ubuntu OS. I tried the commands below and it is negative.

      lsmod | grep kvm
      
      egrep -c '(vmx|svm)'  /proc/cpuinfo

    • XCP-ng 8.3 with VM crashing

      I have a Asus B550M with Ryzen 3600 CPU and 32GB Ram. I have the issue where the VM (five in total) will reboot randomly on a daily basis. Some day the Host will reboot without any dmesg or /var/crash log. Below is the host dmesg when two of the VM reboots at different times of the day. Three of the VM is running Kubernetes with average CPU 12%, very log IO and network. Average Host CPU is 12%

      I have run memtest86 and Prime95 on the host for 24 hours each. Both runs are booted from USB thumbdrive without the XCP-ng running.

      What could be the issue?
